## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability x402-silverbackdefi-app-56609dd5
```

Example prompt: Can you scan for price discrepancies between DEX aggregators for swapping 1000 USDC to ETH right now, so I can see if there's an arbitrage opportunity?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly identify price discrepancies between DEX aggregators for a specific token pair on Base chain, particularly before executing a swap or arbitrage trade. Prefer this over manual price checks when you want a consolidated view of spreads across multiple aggregators in a single call.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required tokenIn or tokenOut parameters returns validation error
- Unknown or unsupported token symbol returns error or empty results
- Network congestion may cause stale quotes reducing accuracy
- Payment of 0.03 USDC not fulfilled returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid token address format returns parsing error
