## 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 suverse-met-museum-departments-list-021acc88 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the full list of curatorial departments at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, including their department IDs, so I can pick the right one to filter my art search?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to enumerate or look up Met Museum department IDs and names, especially as a prerequisite step before filtering Met object searches by department. Prefer this over scraping the Met's own website when you need a structured, machine-readable list with department IDs. It wraps the keyless Met Open Access API so no separate API key is required.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or invalid — returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream Met Museum API unavailable — returns 502 or 503
- Malformed request body — returns 400 Bad Request
- Network timeout if Met API is slow to respond

## How this service works
