Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 zeroreader-qwq-32b-reasoning-model-api-f3c87b82 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Use the QwQ 32B reasoning model to answer this logic puzzle step by step: 'If all bloops are razzles and all razzles are lazzles, are all bloops definitely lazzles?' — set max_tokens to 1024 and temperature to 0.7.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need strong step-by-step reasoning, mathematical problem solving, logical deduction, or code analysis — QwQ 32B specializes in chain-of-thought reasoning. Prefer it over DeepSeek R1 32B when you want Qwen's reasoning style, or over larger models when cost efficiency matters. Use it via x402 pay-per-call when you don't want to manage API keys or subscriptions.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure if insufficient USDC balance (402 Payment Required)
- max_tokens exceeded if response is longer than 4096 tokens
- temperature out of range (must be 0–2) causes validation error
- Malformed messages array (missing role or content) causes 400 error
- Model timeout on very complex reasoning tasks
- Streaming not supported if stream flag handling is misconfigured

## How this service works

QwQ 32B (Reasoning) — Reasoning-focused model from Qwen.

## Output

Returns an OpenAI-compatible chat completion object containing the model's generated assistant message, a finish reason (e.g. 'stop'), a unique completion ID, and an object type field. The content field holds the full reasoning and final answer text from QwQ 32B.
