## 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 tempest-ai-content-engine-clarify-84eb73e3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you clarify and simplify this passage for a 5th-grade reading level? Here's the text: 'The mitochondria orchestrate cellular respiration through a series of oxidative phosphorylation reactions that yield adenosine triphosphate.'

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically simplify or clarify text to a target audience reading level at scale, particularly when paying per-call with USDC is acceptable and you need AI-powered readability adjustment without building your own model pipeline.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'text' field returns a 400 validation error
- Invalid or unrecognized reading_level value may produce unexpected simplification
- Payment of 0.2 USDC not provided results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Very long texts may exceed token limits and return a truncated or error response
- Network timeout on the Vercel serverless deployment under heavy load

## How this service works

Compose, rewrite, translate, and refine content at scale. 25 AI-powered endpoints. Pay-per-call with USDC on Tempo.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a success boolean and a data object containing the clarified, simplified version of the input text adjusted to the specified reading level.
