## 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-world-bank-countries-api-f1d93033
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the World Bank country list so I can see each country's name, region, income level, and capital city?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need standardized World Bank country classifications, income levels, and regional groupings without setting up your own World Bank API integration. Useful for agents that need authoritative country metadata for development economics, policy research, or data enrichment workflows. At $0.002/call it is cost-effective for occasional lookups without requiring a World Bank API key.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized country code filter returns empty result set
- Network timeout if World Bank upstream is slow
- Malformed query parameters may return 400-level error
- Payment not processed ($0.002 USDC required per call via x402) results in 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting on the upstream World Bank API may cause occasional failures
