## 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 withzero-pixel-art-canvas-animate-fe485ba6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Take my pixel art canvas (ID: abc123) and animate it — I want it to have a walking cycle motion.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you already have an existing pixel art canvas created via WithZero and want to add animation or motion to it. It is specifically designed for animating pixel art (not raster photos, vector graphics, or other media types), and requires a canvas ID from a prior creation step.

## Known failure modes

- Canvas ID not found — returns 404 if the specified canvas does not exist
- Invalid or malformed request body — returns 400 if required fields are missing or bodyType is incorrect
- Insufficient payment — returns 402 if USDC payment is not provided or underfunded
- Timeout or generation failure — returns 500 if the animation engine fails to process the canvas

## How this service works

Create media, research companies and people, publish to the web, remember context, deploy apps, and schedule work—on demand, without vendor accounts or API keys. This server is a pay-per-use, transparent proxy in front of WithZero's own API: ZeroClick handles identity, payment, and proxying. Agents can purchase autonomously or with their human's approval. This document is the source of truth for agents: it lists the complete verified paid surface with each operation's live price in its x-payment-info. Endpoints not listed here are not part of the supported catalog. The live catalog at /manifest.json is authoritative for prices and any free included units (prices[].includedUnits) - some meters include free usage per account before any charge.

## Output

Returns an animated version of the specified pixel art canvas, likely as an animated image file or a URL to the rendered animation output.
