```sh
zero fetch --capability synthora-emerging-protocols-3f5814e6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest real-time data on emerging M2M payment protocols from the SYNTHORA emerging protocols service — I want to see what's current in the x402 and auto-settling micropayment space.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, per-call intelligence specifically about emerging M2M and x402-style micropayment protocols, and you are operating in an agent context that supports x402 micropayment headers. Prefer this over generic web search when you need structured, machine-readable protocol data with a payment receipt for audit trails.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient x402 payment or missing payment header returns 402 Payment Required
- Malformed POST body returns 400 Bad Request
- Service unavailable or backend error returns 500 with ok:false
- Stale or empty result if no protocol data is currently available
- Payment settlement failure on Base network causes transaction rejection
