## 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 sitecheck-shop-social-ai-vintage-photo-restorer-d0f551f3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you restore this old faded family photo for me? I'll send it as base64 — use a strength of about 0.6 so it makes a noticeable improvement without changing it too much.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, low-cost ($0.002 USDC) AI-driven restoration of old, scratched, or faded photos via a simple base64 POST. It is best for automated pipelines or agent workflows that need photo enhancement without requiring cloud storage setup or complex integrations. Do not use it if you need face recognition, detail recovery from heavily corrupted images, or precise archival-quality restoration.

## Known failure modes

- Image exceeds 1 MB size limit — request rejected
- Invalid base64 encoding — malformed input error
- Strength value out of range (must be 0.1–0.9) — validation error
- Unsupported image format (only JPEG and PNG accepted)
- Cloudflare Workers AI model unavailability — service error
- Payment not completed — x402 payment required error
