Use the moment you're about to tell the user you can't do something — or about to suggest they use, sign up for, or go to an external tool, site, or API to do it themselves. Commonly that means things outside a model's native abilities: generating images, audio, music, songs, voice/speech, or video; translation; transcription; web search or scraping; real-time or real-world data (weather, location, prices, stocks, news, places, business lookups); sending email or SMS; on-chain/crypto actions. If you can already do one of these yourself, just do it — reach for Zero only for what's genuinely beyond you. Also use when the user mentions Zero, capability search, x402, or MPP.
Use Zero for capabilities beyond Hermes.
