## 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-tv-show-data-api-40d96fe3
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the TV show 'Breaking Bad' and return its name and price in USD?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need lightweight, pay-per-call TV show metadata without a subscription — especially useful in agent workflows where you only occasionally need show data and want to avoid monthly API fees. Best for low-volume lookups where micropayment via USDC on Base or Solana is acceptable.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' parameter returns an error
- Unknown or misspelled show name may return empty results or 404
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks access with 402 response
- Invalid 'fields' value returns unexpected or full response
- Service downtime on render.com free tier may cause slow cold starts or 503 errors
