## 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 whaletape-hyperliquid-whale-position-lookup-7c31887a
```

Example prompt: Pull up the current Hyperliquid positions for whale address 0xAbCd1234... — I want to see their long/short exposure, which coins they're trading, leverage, and unrealized PnL right now.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time position data for a specific known wallet address on Hyperliquid. Prefer this over broader market signal endpoints when the goal is to track a particular trader or whale rather than scan across markets. It is the right choice for copy-trading logic, wallet monitoring, or due diligence on a specific address.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed wallet address returns empty positions array or error
- Address with no open Hyperliquid positions returns zero exposure and empty array
- Rate limiting or payment failure (402) if USDC payment not attached
- Hyperliquid on-chain data delay may cause slight staleness during high-throughput periods
- Non-Hyperliquid addresses (e.g., Ethereum mainnet wallets with no Hyperliquid activity) return no data
