## 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 scholarpulse-student-loan-repayment-strategy-101e774c
```

Example prompt: I have $45,000 in federal student loans and earn $52,000 a year — can you compare SAVE, IBR, and PAYE repayment plans and tell me which one will cost me the least overall, and whether refinancing makes sense?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a user needs to compare multiple student loan repayment plans across US income-driven options (SAVE, IBR, PAYE) or international systems (UK, Australia, Canada), or wants a combined repayment-plus-refinancing analysis in a single call. Prefer this over the dedicated refinancing endpoint when the user wants a holistic repayment strategy rather than just refinancing rates.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required parameters such as loan balance or income returns a 400 error
- Unsupported country or loan type returns an error indicating out-of-scope request
- Invalid income or balance values (e.g. negative numbers) return validation errors
- API returns 402 if payment in USDC is not provided or fails
- Insufficient data for refinancing comparison may return partial results without refinancing analysis

## How this service works

Student loan strategy for student and financial-aid agents. Compares repayment plans for US (SAVE/IBR/PAYE), UK (Plan 2/5), Australia (HELP), Canada (RAP), and more, with refinancing analysis.

## Output

Returns a structured comparison of eligible repayment plans (e.g. SAVE, IBR, PAYE for US; Plan 2/Plan 5 for UK; HELP for Australia; RAP for Canada), including estimated monthly payments, total repayment costs, forgiveness eligibility timelines, and a refinancing analysis with a recommended optimal strategy.
