## 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 pool-payout-vs-expected-reward-before-and-after-comparison-11dcef45 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Compare my mining pool payout deviation for two periods: before, I expected 0.010 BTC and received 0.011 BTC; after, I expected 0.011 BTC and received 0.0121 BTC — give me a before and after breakdown of how far off my pool was each time.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, formulaic before-and-after comparison of mining pool payout deviation — specifically when you have two distinct time periods with known expected and received BTC values and want to understand how pool accuracy changed between them. It is not suitable for real-time price lookups, profitability projections, or single-period deviation analysis.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (received_btc or expected_btc in before/after objects) returns a validation error
- Values of zero or below for BTC amounts are rejected due to exclusiveMinimum:0 constraint
- Extremely large BTC values beyond the maximum may be rejected
- Network or payment processing failure may prevent report delivery
- Malformed JSON body returns a schema validation error
