## 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-media-downloader-cc27ae96 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Download the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ and give me a direct link to the media file I can save.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically download or extract media from YouTube videos via a pay-per-call API with crypto payment (USDC on Base chain via x402). Prefer this over manual tools when building automated pipelines that require YouTube media retrieval at scale.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent YouTube URL returns an error result
- Geo-restricted or private video may return access denied error
- YouTube rate limiting may cause intermittent failures
- Age-restricted content may not be downloadable
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 response before processing
