> Whatchuneed Tempest Signal Endpoint is a paid API for AI agents from whatchuneed.vercel.app, paid per call via x402, $0.2/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Processes a free-text input string and returns a result object via the Tempest Signal API, likely for weather, signal, or environmental data lookups

## 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-tempest-signal-endpoint-5b0eae69 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Query the Tempest signal endpoint with 'current wind speed and direction at my station' and return the result data.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to query the Tempest signal service specifically with a free-text input and receive structured result data, particularly for weather or environmental signal data available through the whatchuneed platform's pay-per-call model.

## Known failure modes

- Vague or malformed input string may yield an empty or unhelpful result object
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Endpoint may return a non-specific result if the input doesn't match Tempest's expected query format
- Service unavailability on the Vercel deployment could return a 500 error
- Unknown what specific signal domains or parameters are accepted, leading to null results
