## 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 tanship-payai-console-browser-news-fetch-757e43a3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the latest news articles about AI regulation? I want the current headlines and story content, and I'm okay paying a fraction of a cent per call via USDC.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or live news data fetched via a browser (not a static RSS or news API), want pay-per-call micropayment pricing with no subscription, and are operating in an AI agent pipeline that can handle x402 USDC payments on Base. Prefer over traditional news APIs when avoiding API key management or when the target content requires JavaScript rendering.

## Known failure modes

- Payment rejected or insufficient USDC balance — 402 Payment Required with x402 challenge
- Malformed request body missing required 'input' fields — 400 Bad Request
- Browser automation timeout if target news site is slow or unavailable
- Invalid bodyType enum value causing schema validation failure
- Base network congestion causing payment confirmation delay
