## 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 vape-protocol-snapshot-253226be
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the full VAPE protocol snapshot for 'aerodrome' — I want the per-chain TVL, category, audit history, logo, and Twitter handle?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a comprehensive 'who is this protocol' snapshot in a single call — covering TVL by chain, category, audits, branding, and social handles. Prefer it over chain-specific endpoints when you want cross-chain TVL aggregation for one protocol, or over token_intel when you need protocol-level metadata rather than token price data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown protocol slug returns empty or 404 response
- Payment failure ($0.01 USDC x402) blocks the request
- Slug misspelling causes no-match response
- Protocol not yet indexed in VAPE returns no data
