## 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-crawl-rate-endpoint-2fdb74be -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the crawl rate for 'https://example.com' using the whatchuneed gateway and tell me what rate comes back?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to retrieve crawl rate information through the whatchuneed pay-per-call gateway and want to pay per use via x402/USDC without managing a subscription. Prefer this over dedicated crawl-rate APIs if you are already integrated with the whatchuneed ecosystem and want a single unified payment and API layer.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty input field returns validation error
- Invalid or malformed input string may return null result or error status
- Network timeout if the upstream rate service is slow
- Payment failure via x402 protocol if USDC balance is insufficient
- Ambiguous input string may return unexpected or empty result data
