# AgentDiet Research Digest

> AgentDiet Research Digest is a paid API for AI agents from status.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-22).

Returns a compressed, token-efficient research digest by distilling input queries into a summarized intelligence output, reducing context window bloat by up to 91%.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://status.agentdiet.dev/v1/research-digest?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-10-22
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/agentdiet-research-digest-87e19f88
- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_vfHeo8cQBzfPWai7ieAs_

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 agentdiet-research-digest-87e19f88
```

Example prompt: Can you pull a compressed research digest on 'large language model alignment techniques' — I want the token-efficient summary version that cuts out the bloat, like AgentDiet does?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to retrieve research on a topic while aggressively minimizing token consumption. It is ideal for agentic pipelines where context window space is at a premium, for pre-processing research before feeding it into a reasoning step, or when you need verifiable proof of compression (roi_proof). Prefer it over raw web search or uncompressed retrieval when the downstream consumer is an LLM with limited context or when token cost is a concern.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed 'query' parameter returns empty or error data payload
- Payment not settled in USDC on Base results in 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid HTTP method (not GET or POST) returns schema validation error
- Upstream research source unavailable may return empty data with ok status
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion may result in failed requests

## How this service works

Deterministic B2A/A2A/MCP/x402/MPP/L402 execution and intelligence node at https://status.agentdiet.dev settling in USDC on Base.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the compressed research output, a 'status' field ('ok' on success), and a 'roi_proof' object showing the compression_ratio_pct (e.g. 91.4%), demonstrating how much token bloat was removed.
