## 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 prospectintel-claim-grounding-gate-de549473 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before you show the user this answer, check if it's actually grounded in the source document I retrieved — run it through the grounding gate and tell me if the response is supported or if it's hallucinating.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap ($0.10/call) automated gate to catch hallucinations or ungrounded claims in AI-generated answers before delivery, especially in RAG pipelines or agentic workflows where answer accuracy is critical. Prefer this over full LLM re-evaluation when you want a lightweight, purpose-built grounding check rather than a general-purpose model review.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed body payload returns an error
- Empty or missing source context may produce unreliable verdicts
- Very long inputs may hit token or size limits
- Ambiguous or vague claims may return low-confidence verdicts
- Network timeout on the Cloudflare Worker edge runtime

## How this service works

Fast answer grounding gate

## Output

Returns a verdict indicating whether the provided answer or claim is grounded in the supplied source material, likely including a pass/fail grounding result and potentially a confidence score or explanation of which parts are or are not supported.
