## 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 rotary-agency-ip-whois-lookup-106f6d66
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the WHOIS and geolocation details for the IP address 8.8.8.8 — I want to know the country, ISP, ASN, and whether it's a datacenter or residential IP?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a low-cost ($0.002/call), pay-per-use IP WHOIS and geolocation lookup with no subscription required. It suits agents performing one-off or moderate-volume IP enrichment tasks where a free upstream data source is acceptable. If you need premium accuracy, real-time threat intelligence, or high-volume batch processing with SLA guarantees, consider dedicated IP intelligence providers.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed IP address returns an error or empty result
- Private/reserved IP ranges (e.g. 192.168.x.x) may return no meaningful WHOIS data
- Upstream free-source data provider may have stale or incomplete records for some IPs
- Rate limiting or payment failure may result in a 402 or 429 response
- IPv6 addresses may have partial data coverage compared to IPv4
