## 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-translate-e887813e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Translate the following text to French: 'The meeting has been rescheduled to Thursday afternoon. Please update your calendars.' — auto-detect the source language.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-call LLM-powered translation with automatic source language detection and a confidence score, especially in agentic workflows where you pay only for what you use via x402 USDC micropayments and don't want to manage a dedicated translation API subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported target language code returns an error or empty result
- Very short or ambiguous text may produce low confidence scores
- Source language auto-detection may fail for mixed-language or code-heavy input
- Network or payment authorization failures may return 402 or 5xx errors
- Extremely long texts may be truncated or time out
