## 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 stablememes-caption-gif-59a52b2d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you make me a captioned GIF meme using the Distracted Boyfriend template — top text 'new JavaScript frameworks', bottom text 'me forgetting how to code'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to generate animated GIF memes specifically, as opposed to static image memes. It is backed by Imgflip's large library of GIF templates and is ideal for social media posts, chat messages, or any context where animated meme content is desired.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown template_id returns an error
- Missing required template_id field causes 400 validation error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 response
- Imgflip API upstream unavailability causes 503
- Caption text too long for template overlay may be truncated or rejected
