## 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`):

Example prompt: Can you find words spelled similarly to 'recieve' — I want to see up to 10 spelling suggestions so I can figure out what word I probably meant?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to find orthographically similar words to a given input — especially for spell-checking, autocorrect, or handling user typos. It is distinct from phonetic/sound-alike lookups (use the homophones endpoint for those), rhyme lookups, or synonym lookups. Ideal when the input word might itself be a misspelling and you need plausible correct alternatives.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'word' query parameter returns an error
- Limit value outside 1–50 range may cause a validation error or be clamped to defaults
- Very obscure or nonsensical input strings may return zero results
- Network or payment authorization failures return HTTP 402 or connectivity errors
- Input that is already a perfectly standard word may return limited or no variants

## How this service works

Words spelled similarly to the input: spelling suggestions. Common misspellings also appear in the vocabulary.

## Output

Returns a ranked list of words spelled similarly to the input, each with a similarity score, syllable count, parts of speech, and pronunciation. Also includes metadata such as result count, source attribution, and a summary or verdict about the query.
