## 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`):

```

Example prompt: What's the Proverbs chapter I should read today according to the classic day-of-month plan? Include the full chapter text in KJV.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a deterministic, date-based Proverbs chapter lookup following the traditional day-of-month reading convention, especially when you want a curated verse of the day alongside optional full chapter text in KJV.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid date format returns an error — must be YYYY-MM-DD
- Unsupported translation code returns an error — currently only 'kjv' is hosted
- Payment failure (x402 protocol) blocks the request
- Malformed include_chapter value (not 'true') may default to false silently
