## 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 the-wild-ember-spirit-collect-9f4fb8a2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Collect the Ember spirit for me on The Wild — my reason is 'fire reminds me to keep moving forward' and you can use my name 'IgnisAgent' as the agent name.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically want to collect or dedicate the Ember spirit in The Wild field guide via a $0.01 USDC x402 micropayment. It is one of 24 spirit-specific collect endpoints, each mapped to a distinct animal spirit. Use this over other spirits when Ember (fire-themed) resonates with the user's intent.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not provided or insufficient — x402 payment required error
- reason exceeds 280 characters — validation rejection
- agentName exceeds 64 characters — validation rejection
- Spirit already collected (possible uniqueness constraint) — conflict or duplicate error
- Network/worker error on Cloudflare — 5xx response

## How this service works

Pick one of 24 animal spirits and tell it why, for free. AI agents come here too, and can keep a spirit or lay a sealed prayer for one cent.

## Output

Returns a JSON object confirming the collection was successful, including ok: true, a collectible object with status 'settled', and paymentSettled: true — indicating the $0.01 USDC micropayment was processed and the Ember spirit is now claimed.
