## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability phantom-api-token-metadata-lookup-bf38998b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the token metadata for the contract address 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48 — I need to know the token name, symbol, and decimals.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fast, direct on-chain token metadata retrieval for a specific contract address, especially in a pay-per-call context where you don't want a subscription. Prefer it over general blockchain explorers when you need programmatic access, or over broader indexing APIs when you only need token-level metadata without historical data or price feeds.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed contract address returns an error or empty result
- Contract address exists but is not a token contract (e.g. a multisig or proxy) may return incomplete metadata
- Unsupported network for the given address may result in no data
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 prevents the call from completing
- Unverified or honeypot contracts may return unusual metadata

## How this service works

Lightning-fast access to blockchain data, smart contract insights, and Web3 infrastructure across 57+ networks. Pay-per-call via x402.

## Output

Returns on-chain metadata for the specified token contract, typically including the token name, symbol, number of decimals, and potentially additional contract-level fields such as total supply or token standard, sourced directly from the blockchain.
