## 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 scriptmasterlabs-mcp-x402-bounties-api-3392e745 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Create a bounty titled 'SEC 8-K Fetch Reward' targeting the resource '/x402/sec-8k', offering a 0.05 USDC reward with a maximum of 10 claims and a description of 'Reward for fetching SEC 8-K filings via the x402 endpoint'.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically create and fund a bounty for a specific data resource within the ScriptMasterLabs x402 ecosystem, particularly when incentivizing agents or users to call crypto, RWA, SEC, or HUD/Section 8 compliance endpoints. Prefer this over generic task management APIs when the reward mechanism must be USDC-denominated on Base via the x402 micropayment protocol.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (target_resource, reward_usdc, max_claims, or title) returns a 400 validation error
- Unpaid request without valid x402 payment header or X-Api-Market-Key returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid USDC amount or negative reward value causes rejection
- max_claims set to zero or negative integer may be rejected
- Service unavailable on Render.com free-tier cold start causes timeout or 503

## How this service works

Pay-per-call crypto, RWA, federal, SEC, Section 8/HUD housing, and compliance APIs via x402. Primary: USDC on Base (eip155:8453). Also accepts Global Dollar (USDG) on Robinhood Chain (eip155:4663) via sovereign X-PAYMENT-TX. Hyphen routes only (e.g. /x402/gas-tracker, /x402/pha-lookup, /x402/sec-8k). MARKETPLACE REVIEW: use free /x402/playground/* (no key, no payment). Production /x402/* returns 402 unless paid via x402 or X-Api-Market-Key / X-API-Key from seller dashboard.

## Output

Returns a confirmation of the created bounty, likely including a bounty ID or record confirming the target resource, reward amount in USDC, maximum allowed claims, title, and description as stored on the platform.
