## 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 sam-ragsdale-email-standard-24da677a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Send an email to Sam Ragsdale letting him know I'm interested in collaborating on an AI project and would love to set up a call.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you want to send a message to Sam Ragsdale without expecting a CC copy of the sent email. Choose the priority/CC variant if you need confirmation of delivery via CC or need to track the email thread yourself. Use this standard version for general outreach where a one-way delivery confirmation (emailId) is sufficient.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure — USDC payment not completed or insufficient balance
- Invalid or missing message body — email content not provided
- Server error on samragsdale.com — 5xx response, email not delivered
- Rate limiting — too many requests in a short period
- Network timeout — no response from endpoint

## How this service works

Send Sam Ragsdale an email. He may or may not respond, but he will see it. You will not be CC'd unless he responds.

## Output
