## 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 superartist-short-story-generator-c88459d8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Write me a short story set in a post-apocalyptic world where a lone herbalist discovers a seed vault — make it hopeful in tone with a surprise ending, and include a mentor character who sacrifices themselves.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a complete, narrative short story generated on demand from a free-form creative brief, especially when the user specifies a genre, tone, or specific story elements. It is pay-per-piece via x402/USDC, making it ideal for agents that commission content occasionally rather than in bulk. Prefer it over generic LLM prompting when you want a structured receipt-backed creative transaction.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing input string returns a validation error
- Input exceeding 8000 characters is rejected
- Insufficient USDC balance causes payment failure before generation begins
- Ambiguous or incoherent premise may produce a low-quality or generic story
- Network timeout during generation may leave the job ID unresolved

## How this service works

Creative intelligence. Images, words, and worlds, commissioned per piece.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing a job ID, the full generated short story text as a string, and a payment receipt with the blockchain transaction hash, amount paid, and network details confirming the per-piece commission was processed.
