## 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 pocket-network-us-code-cfr-section-lookup-70d8f920 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull up the full text of US Code Title 26, Section 501 — I need to see the exact statutory language around tax-exempt organizations.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the exact, authoritative statutory or regulatory text of a specific US Code or CFR section — not a summary or paraphrase. It is ideal for legal research, compliance verification, policy analysis, or any workflow requiring deterministic, machine-readable federal law text. Unlike general web search or LLM knowledge, it returns the canonical structured text directly from govinfo with no hallucination risk. It requires no API key or account, just per-call USDC payment.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent title number returns an error or empty result
- Section not found within a valid title returns an error
- Malformed request body (missing required title field) returns a validation error
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in a 402 response before content is returned
- Network or upstream govinfo availability issues may cause timeouts

## How this service works

Pay-per-call access to Pocket Network services. No account, no API key.
