## 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 video-withzero-xyz-poll-video-generation-job-status-5fb07d53
```

Example prompt: Can you check the status of my video generation job with ID 'job_abc123' and let me know if it's done — and if so, give me the video URL?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint after calling one of the video generation endpoints (Sora, Veo, Kling) that return a job_id. This is the correct polling endpoint to check async job completion and retrieve the final video URL. Prefer this over re-submitting a generation request — it is read-only and idempotent.

## Known failure modes

- Job ID not found — returns an error or 404 if the ID is invalid or expired
- Status is 'failed' with an error string describing why generation failed
- Job still in_progress — agent must retry polling until status changes
- Network timeout if the polling service is temporarily unavailable

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the job_id, current status (in_progress, completed, or failed), the model being used, and either a public video URL (when completed) or an error reason (when failed).
