## 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 sendquotenow-quote-creator-4bbd3676 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Create and send a quote to my client John Smith at john@example.com for electrical panel upgrade work — 3 labor hours at $150 each and materials for $1,800, with 8% tax, expiring in 30 days.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to programmatically create and immediately deliver a client-ready quote or invoice for a service business — especially when you need a bundled output including PDF, hosted view link, QR code, and Stripe payment link in a single call. Prefer this over generic invoicing APIs when serving contractors, electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, or freelancers who need branded, professional-looking estimates sent instantly with built-in payment collection.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required line items or client contact info returns a 400 validation error
- Invalid or malformed email address for recipient causes delivery failure
- Expired or invalid x402 USDC payment token returns a 402 payment required error
- Stripe payment link generation failure if Stripe integration is misconfigured
- Tax rate out of accepted range returns a validation error
- Network timeout if PDF or QR code generation takes too long

## How this service works

Generates branded, customer-ready quotes and estimates as hosted PDFs in about one second — line items, tax, discounts, a hosted approval page, a QR code and a Stripe payment link. Pay-per-call with x402 in USDC on Base; no account or API key. THIS ENDPOINT (the flagship): POST line items, get back the quote number, totals, a hosted page the customer can approve or decline, a PDF URL, a QR code, a Stripe payment link and an expiration date.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing a unique quote UUID, sequential quote number (e.g. Q-0042), status (sent), subtotal, tax amount, and grand total in USD, along with a hosted URL for the client-facing quote page, a downloadable PDF URL, a QR code image URL, a Stripe payment link for the client to pay, and an expiration timestamp.
