## 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 synapse-api-aptos-gas-estimator-c4cd2c9c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Estimate the gas fees for an Aptos transaction from my wallet 0xABC123 to 0xDEF456 with a value of 100 APT and no calldata.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call gas estimate for an Aptos-specific transaction without running your own Aptos node. Preferable over generic blockchain gas estimators when you are specifically working on the Aptos network and need low-latency pre-flight fee checks.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed address fields return a 400 error
- Unsupported or invalid calldata format causes estimation failure
- Network connectivity issues to Aptos RPC nodes may cause timeouts
- Missing required fields (from/to) result in validation errors
- Value field with non-numeric or improperly formatted strings may fail parsing

## How this service works

High-speed API suite for AI processing, web scraping, and smart data utilities across 57+ blockchain networks. Pay-per-call via x402.

## Output

Returns an estimated gas cost for the specified Aptos transaction, including the computed fee in native units, allowing callers to budget transaction costs before submission.
