## 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 vetpulse-veteran-education-benefits-guide-a7de6c0e
```

Example prompt: I'm a post-9/11 veteran with an honorable discharge and I want to understand my education benefits — can you compare the GI Bill options, estimate my housing allowance, check if I qualify for VR&E, and tell me whether I can transfer benefits to my dependents?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a veteran or VA-benefits agent needs a side-by-side comparison of education benefit options including GI Bill chapters, housing allowance estimates, VR&E eligibility, and dependent transfer rules — all in a single call. Prefer this over generic VA information sources when the agent needs structured, actionable education benefit guidance specifically tailored for veteran advisors.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid veteran status information may return incomplete eligibility results
- Service unavailable if the Vercel deployment is down (5xx error)
- Payment failure if the x402 USDC transaction is not completed, blocking the response
- Incomplete benefit comparison if discharge type or service duration details are not provided
