## 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 tradepilotusa-account-research-questions-generator-7315e151 -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Can you generate a structured research checklist and source plan for investigating Greenfield Roofing's consultation scheduling challenges? The brief is: 'We want to understand why they're losing leads during the scheduling phase and how we can help.' The source text is the notes from our last discovery call: 'They have a 3-person crew in Austin, use a paper-based booking system, and estimate they miss 20% of inbound calls.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to quickly scaffold a structured research plan or checklist for investigating a specific business account, operational topic, or sales opportunity — especially when you have some initial context (a brief or notes) and want to surface the key research objectives, source recommendations, and evidence gaps before a call or engagement. It is well-suited for sales teams doing account prep, consultants onboarding new clients, or analysts conducting operational due diligence.
