## 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-nobel-prize-laureates-aa07b38c

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, per-laureate data about Nobel Prize winners including biographical details, motivations, and affiliations — especially when filtering by name, year, or category. Prefer this over general web search when you need machine-readable Nobel Prize data for downstream analysis or display.

## Known failure modes

- Name query returns empty array if no matching laureate is found
- Ambiguous name queries may return multiple partial matches
- No results for future or unannounced prize years
- Missing fields for older laureates with incomplete historical records
- API may return 402 if payment is not properly handled via x402 protocol
