## 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-llm-text-generation-d8a9a561 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Write a short, casual-style paragraph introducing our new productivity app called FocusFlow — keep it under 100 words and punchy.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-call LLM text generation without managing API keys or subscriptions, and you are already using the x402 micro-payment protocol. It is well suited for lightweight agents that need occasional text generation across varied styles and lengths without committing to a dedicated LLM provider contract.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'prompt' field returns a 400 validation error
- Payment not provided or invalid x402 payment header returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid 'style' or 'length' values may be ignored or cause a 400 error
- Prompt too long may exceed model context limits and return an error
- Service unavailability on the hosted LLM backend returns a 503 or 500 error
