## 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 silverback-x402-onrender-com-ccd70722
```

Example prompt: What are the best yield opportunities for USDC on Base right now? I have a low risk tolerance and want to see which DeFi protocols are offering the highest safe returns.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover and compare DeFi yield opportunities specifically on Base chain for a given token. Prefer this over generic DeFi aggregators when the user wants Base-native results with risk-level filtering. Pair with the liquidity pool health scoring endpoint for deeper due diligence.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported token symbol returns error or empty results
- Invalid risk tolerance value (not low/medium/high) causes validation error
- Base chain data temporarily unavailable returns 503 or stale data
- Token address not recognized on Base chain returns no results
- Payment failure (x402) prevents access to results

## How this service works
