## 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-chain-intel-pending-mempool-transactions-7f0fee1e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the current pending mempool transactions on Ethereum so I can see any large unconfirmed DEX swaps my trading bot should be aware of right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time visibility into unconfirmed blockchain transactions for time-sensitive trading strategies such as MEV detection, sandwich attack monitoring, or front-running analysis. Prefer this over block-confirmed data endpoints when sub-block latency matters. Best suited for automated trading bots that need mempool intelligence priced per-call at $0.19 USDC via the x402 payment protocol.

## Known failure modes

- Mempool node temporarily unavailable returns 5xx error
- Invalid or unsupported chain parameter returns 4xx
- Payment verification failure returns 402 if USDC payment is not correctly attached
- Empty result if mempool is unusually low-activity
- Stale data if node is lagging behind the network tip
