## 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 x402-api-aubr-ai-94ea4493
```

Example prompt: Can you kick off a smart-depth deep research job on the latest advances in senolytic therapies and their effects on healthspan? I want Aubrai to orchestrate the full literature synthesis and hypothesis generation.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a comprehensive, multi-agent synthesized research report on longevity or aging topics and can tolerate asynchronous, batch-style processing. Prefer 'steering' mode for quick exploratory tasks ($0.20), 'smart' for balanced depth ($1.00), and 'fully-autonomous' for exhaustive research ($8.00). Choose this over a simple literature search when you need hypothesis generation and data analysis, not just document retrieval.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid researchMode enum value returns a 400 validation error
- Missing message field causes a 400 bad request
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC amount causes a 402 Payment Required response
- Query outside longevity/aging domain may return an off-topic or empty report
- Job queue overload may delay queuing and return a timeout or 503
- Polling conversation ID not found if job hasn't been created yet

## How this service works

Start a deep research job on any longevity or aging topic. Aubrai orchestrates sub-agents for literature synthesis, data analysis, and hypothesis generation — returns a conversation ID to poll for the full report.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a conversation ID (e.g. conv_abc123) and a status field (e.g. 'queued'), which the agent can then poll to retrieve the full multi-agent research report including literature synthesis, data analysis, and hypothesis generation.
