## 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-buyer-market-scout-base-risk-btc15-intelligence-8e098e95
```

Example prompt: Scout the x402 marketplace for Base token risk and BTC15 15-minute Up/Down prediction-market feeds with a budget cap of $0.05 per call on Base mainnet, check up to 5 external listings, and include your own catalog matches.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to discover which x402 paid APIs exist for a specific onchain intelligence task — especially Base DeFi risk feeds or BTC15 prediction-market data — before committing to a specific provider. It is the right choice for pre-flight market scouting, price comparison, and execution planning within the x402 ecosystem, rather than directly calling a known risk or prediction API.

## Known failure modes

- No matching x402 services found for the buyer_task (market_gap populated, scout_decision is 'no match')
- All inspected external sources return errors or are unreachable (source_status shows failures)
- Budget cap too low to match any available services (price flags all results as over budget)
- Network filter returns no listings (empty external_market when non-Base CAIP-2 used)
- limit parameter out of range (2-10) causes 400 validation error
