## 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 agent-tools-url-to-markdown-converter-13ac24c0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Grab the content of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown and convert it to markdown so I can read through it — cap it at 15000 characters.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read and process web page content without requiring a signup or API key — ideal for pay-per-call agent workflows. It is best for one-off URL fetches where you want clean markdown output suitable for downstream LLM processing, summarization, or information extraction. Prefer this over browser automation tools when simplicity and low cost per call matter most.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error response
- Pages behind authentication or paywalls may return empty or partial content
- Very large pages may be truncated at the specified or default max_chars limit
- Rate limiting or network timeouts on the target server can cause fetch failures
- Payment failure via x402 will result in a 402 response before content is returned

## How this service works
