## 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 tarnak-x402-toolkit-depin-provider-rank-api-e3696506
```

Example prompt: Show me the ranked list of DepIN compute providers on the Base network — I want to see their GPU models, uptime, and hourly price so I can pick the best one.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a ranked, structured list of DepIN compute providers with uptime and pricing metadata, especially for agents operating on Base that need keyless pay-per-call access via x402 without API keys or signup.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported network filter value returns empty or error response
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC balance triggers 402 Payment Required
- Rate limit exceeded after 10 free daily verdicts per IP returns 429
- Malformed query parameters return 400 Bad Request
- Upstream DepIN data unavailable may return 503 or stale data

## How this service works

Keyless pay-per-call APIs for AI agents on Base: token risk verdict, rug/honeypot report, gas estimate, URL-to-markdown and more. x402 v2, USDC, no API key or signup. 10 free verdicts per IP per day.

## Output

A JSON array of ranked DepIN provider objects, each including provider ID, timestamp, network, GPU model, 30-day uptime percentage, and price in USD per hour.
