## 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 verdicts-freshness-deep-check-61e17e67 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you do a deep freshness check on this claim — 'The Eiffel Tower is 330 meters tall' — and verify it against https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiffel_Tower to see if the citation is still current?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a deep, paid-attestation freshness check on a specific claim-URL pair — not just a link-alive ping. Prefer over generic link checkers when you need a structured verdict and reproduction class score, especially in agentic pipelines requiring traceable citation validation. Use when citation accuracy and recency matter more than speed or cost.

## Known failure modes

- Source URL is unreachable or returns non-200 — verdict may be indeterminate
- Claim is too vague or ambiguous for comparison against source content
- Source URL has paywalled or bot-blocked content preventing deep access
- Payment of $0.04 USDC via x402 not completed — request rejected with 402
- Malformed input schema (missing claim or source_url) returns validation error

## How this service works

x402-paid attestation verdicts: is this citation still current, and is this domain agent-ready. REST twin of the MCP server at https://verdictmcp.com/mcp.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: ok (boolean success flag), type ('freshness'), verdict (e.g. 'current' or 'stale'), and reproduction_class (integer indicating how reproducible/verifiable the claim is against the source).
