## 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-github-crawl-endpoint-2cbb0d75 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you crawl GitHub for repositories related to 'x402 payment protocol' and give me a summary of what you find?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically crawl or search GitHub content through a pay-per-call gateway that handles authentication and access for you, especially in agentic workflows already using the x402 payment protocol and the whatchuneed API umbrella. Prefer this over direct GitHub API calls when you want unified billing or are already embedded in the whatchuneed ecosystem.

## Known failure modes

- Vague or empty 'input' string may return no results or an error
- GitHub rate limits may cause failures if the underlying API quota is exceeded
- Malformed input may result in a generic error response with no useful data
- The $0.05 USDC payment may be charged even on failed requests if the gateway processes the call
- Response schema is loosely typed, so result structure may vary unpredictably
