## 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 talkshi-shop-reviews-first-hand-b2b-service-evaluation-ead35aa3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you commission a first-hand Talkshi review of Acme Analytics — their public site is https://acmeanalytics.com — and I want to understand whether their data pipeline integrations actually work reliably for mid-market SaaS companies? Use request ID 'acme-eval-2024-06' and send results to me at buyer@mycompany.com.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent or procurement team needs independent, first-hand empirical evidence about a B2B vendor's actual service quality — not aggregated user reviews or marketing copy. It is especially valuable for due diligence before contracts, comparing competing vendors objectively, or verifying that a provider's technical claims hold up under real usage. Prefer this over generic review aggregators when you need reviews generated from actual test interactions rather than crowdsourced opinions.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (request_id, company, test_url, evaluation_goal, acknowledge_independence) returns a 400 validation error
- Neither contact_email nor callback_url provided causes request rejection
- acknowledge_independence must be explicitly true — false or absent will fail
- test_url must be a publicly accessible HTTPS URL; private or localhost URLs will be rejected
- Duplicate request_id values are treated as idempotent — same order returned without re-charging
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC or x402 protocol error) prevents order creation
- evaluation_goal under 40 characters is rejected as too vague

## Output

Returns a JSON object with an order confirmation including a unique order ID (e.g. sho_0123...), the offer type ('reviews'), and a status of 'queued', indicating the evaluation has been accepted and will be conducted asynchronously.
