## 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 timezone-converter-with-dst-fold-gap-resolution-144bd25a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Convert 1:30 AM on November 5, 2023 in America/New_York — which is ambiguous due to the DST fall-back — to Europe/London, treating it as the first occurrence (pre-fold).

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need precise civil-time conversion between IANA timezones and must correctly handle DST edge cases — specifically ambiguous times during fall-back (folds) or non-existent times during spring-forward (gaps). It is superior to simple UTC-offset arithmetic or generic time utilities when DST correctness matters. Prefer it for scheduling, calendar, and meeting tools where a wrong DST resolution could cause a missed appointment.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid IANA timezone identifier returns an error indicating unrecognized zone
- Malformed datetime string returns a parsing error
- Unresolvable DST gap with no hint provided may return an error or require a resolution strategy
- Missing required fields (source time, source zone, target zone) return a validation error
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns a 5xx error

## How this service works

Timezone converter — resolve civil-time daylight-saving (DST) folds or gaps and convert one local time between IANA zones.

## Output

Returns the converted datetime in the target IANA timezone as a civil time string with its UTC offset and DST status, along with information about how any DST fold or gap was resolved (e.g., which occurrence was chosen or how the gap was bridged).
