## 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-pypi-package-metadata-lookup-ae100012 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the PyPI metadata for the 'requests' package — I need its latest version, author, license, and what Python versions it supports?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative PyPI metadata for a specific package by name — particularly version, author, license, Python compatibility, classifiers, and release file listings — without scraping the PyPI website or setting up a PyPI API client. Ideal for automated dependency audits, license compliance checks, and developer tooling agents. Keyless access via x402 micropayment makes it suitable for serverless or agent-driven workflows with no pre-registered credentials.

## Known failure modes

- Package name not found on PyPI — returns error or empty result
- Typo in package name results in no match
- Package exists but has no published releases — metadata may be incomplete
- Rate limiting or upstream PyPI unavailability causes timeout
- Payment not processed — x402 payment required before data is returned

## How this service works

PyPI package metadata: version, summary, author, license, requires-python, classifiers, project URLs and latest-release files. Pass a package name. Keyless.

## Output

Returns structured PyPI package metadata including the current version number, short summary, author name, license type, minimum Python version requirement, trove classifiers, project/homepage URLs, and a list of files in the latest release.
