## 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 polygon-contract-storage-slot-reader-2b49dca7
```

Example prompt: What's the raw value stored at slot 0 of the Polygon contract at address 0x2791Bca1f2de4661ED88A30C99A7a9449Aa84174?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to read raw EVM storage data from a specific Polygon contract address at slot 0, especially for proxy pattern inspection, ownership verification, or low-level state auditing. Prefer this over ABI-based calls when you don't have the contract ABI or need to bypass the interface entirely. Choose this over Ethereum or Arbitrum equivalents when the contract is deployed on Polygon (MATIC) specifically.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid contract address format returns an error
- Address is an EOA (externally owned account) rather than a contract — slot returns 0x0
- Network congestion may slow response
- Undeployed or self-destructed contract returns zeroed slot value
- Incorrect slot index assumptions lead to misinterpreted data

## How this service works

Contract Storage Slot (polygon). Polygon contract storage slot read: raw 32-byte value plus uint and address decodings.

## Output

Returns the raw hexadecimal value stored at storage slot 0 of the specified contract address on the Polygon network, representing whatever state variable or data the contract stores at that position (commonly the owner address, implementation pointer, or first declared state variable).
