## 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 whatchuneed-art-pixelate-821f8643 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pixelate this image for me? Here's the URL: https://example.com/my-photo.jpg — I want it to look like classic 8-bit pixel art.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call pixel art conversion without managing a full image processing pipeline. Ideal for one-off pixelation tasks in creative workflows, game asset generation, or retro-style art projects. Best when you want a simple API call without committing to a subscription service.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible image URL provided as input
- Malformed input string that cannot be parsed as an image reference
- Image format not supported by the pixelation engine
- Timeout if the source image is too large or slow to fetch
- Payment not fulfilled via x402 protocol results in 402 error before processing
