## 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 primeapi-text-language-detection-bea375da -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What language is this text written in: 'Bonjour, comment puis-je vous aider aujourd'hui?'

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically detect the language of arbitrary text without maintaining your own NLP stack, especially in a pay-per-call context where you want no API key overhead and can pay in USDC on Base.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing query string returns an error
- Very short or ambiguous text may yield low-confidence or incorrect detection
- Non-textual input (numbers only, symbols) may fail to identify a language
- Payment failure in USDC returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or server errors return 5xx responses
