## 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-translate-api-e0ae19e8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you translate this message into French for me: 'Thank you for your purchase, your order has been shipped and will arrive in 3-5 business days.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a simple pay-per-call translation with no subscription or API key setup, especially in agent workflows that already use the x402 payment protocol and need access to a broad multi-domain API platform in one place.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing input string returns validation error
- Unsupported language pair may return an error or untranslated result
- Ambiguous or very short input may produce inaccurate translations
- Network timeout on the underlying translation provider results in error response
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks the call before translation occurs
