## 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 youtube-channel-intelligence-lookup-6f253db3
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the channel intelligence for @mkbhd on YouTube — I want to see their subscriber count, video stats, and general profile data?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-call YouTube channel intelligence without signing up for an API key or account. It is ideal for agents that need on-demand channel lookups by handle, URL, or channel ID, and when a USDC micropayment model on Base mainnet is acceptable. Prefer this over the official YouTube Data API when you want zero-setup access or when you need to avoid quota management.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent channel handle/ID returns an error or empty result
- Private or terminated channels may return limited or no data
- Malformed channel identifier (wrong format) may cause a validation error
- Payment failure via x402/USDC will block the request
- Rate limiting or upstream YouTube data unavailability may cause timeouts
