## 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-legal-simplifier-api-541e6687 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you simplify this legal clause into plain English for me: 'Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the indemnifying party shall hold harmless and indemnify the indemnified party from and against any and all third-party claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to any breach of this Agreement.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, low-cost, no-account-required way to simplify a specific piece of legal text into plain language. Ideal for AI agents that encounter legal documents during automated workflows and need on-the-fly interpretation without standing up a full NLP pipeline. The $0.01 USDC micropayment model makes it suitable for per-request usage without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing 'text' field returns 400 Bad Request
- Payment not included or insufficient (x402 protocol error) returns 402 Payment Required
- Text too long may result in truncation or 413 error
- Upstream AI service unavailability returns 503
- Non-legal text submitted may still be simplified but with lower utility
