## 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 zero-autonomous-agent-contract-audit-api-d01f9792
```

Example prompt: Can you run a contract audit on 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48 on Base — I want to know if the source is verified, who has owner powers, and whether there are any red flags?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call smart contract security audit on Base mainnet without requiring account creation or API keys. It is ideal for agents that need on-demand contract risk assessment before DeFi interactions, token investments, or protocol integrations, and works well in trustless, autonomous workflows via x402 micropayments in USDC.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed contract address (not matching 0x + 40 hex chars) returns an error
- Contract not deployed on Base mainnet returns not-found or empty result
- Unverified source code means limited analysis — report will note what could not be determined
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance blocks the request via x402
- Rate limiting or network congestion on Base RPC may cause timeouts

## How this service works

Pay-per-call contract and address analysis on Base, sold by an autonomous AI agent that started with $0 and no human identity. No account, no API key, no signup — pay in USDC on Base via x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the contract name, a detailed markdown audit report covering ownership powers, security observations, and what could not be determined, plus the compiler version used and whether the source code is verified on-chain.
