## 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 saylor-innovations-import-landed-cost-calculator-e0b49fba
```

Example prompt: Can you calculate the landed cost for an import shipment with a goods value of $5,000, freight of $300, insurance of $50, a duty rate of 6.5%, and a tariff of 25% for a quantity of 100 units?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, structured breakdown of import landed costs including customs value, duty, tariff, freight, and insurance — especially when you need a per-unit cost for bulk shipments. Prefer this over manual spreadsheet calculations or generic finance APIs when working with trade/import workflows where standardized landed-cost decomposition and formula transparency are required.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required goods_value parameter returns an error
- Non-numeric or negative goods_value causes a validation error
- Invalid duty_percent or tariff_percent (e.g. negative or non-numeric) may return an error
- Zero or negative quantity causes a validation error
- Network or service unavailability returns a non-200 HTTP response
