## 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-url-extractor-scan-github-repo-security-scanner-86682035
```

Example prompt: Can you scan the GitHub repo lodash/lodash for malware, exfiltration patterns, or obfuscated code and tell me if it's safe to use as a dependency?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly assess whether a public GitHub repository contains malicious code, obfuscation, or data exfiltration patterns before adding it as a dependency or running its code. It is purpose-built for supply chain security checks on GitHub repos and returns a structured risk verdict, making it preferable over general-purpose code readers when the goal is security validation.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid 'repo' query parameter returns an error
- Private repositories cannot be accessed and will fail
- Malformed repo identifier (not owner/name format) causes a parsing error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC causes 402 Payment Required
- Very large repositories may time out or return partial results

## How this service works

Pay USDC (Base mainnet, x402) per call: /enrich $0.05, /extract $0.05, /read $0.05, /scan $0.20, /schemaforge $0.25. payTo 0x8904dF3DE6DFEe6a7C8cc38619d2f17806213Cee

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: ok (boolean), repo identifier, risk label (e.g. 'clean'), a plain-English summary, an array of specific findings (empty if clean), and the number of files scanned.
