## 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 agents-bytemine-ai-start-a-deep-site-scan-7731d17f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Do a deep scan of acmecorp.com — crawl up to 5 levels deep and analyze no more than 100 pages — I want to pull structured intelligence from across their whole site.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need comprehensive, multi-page intelligence across an entire company website rather than analyzing a single page. It is ideal when you need to discover, prioritize, and extract structured content from many pages at configurable depth, and when you can tolerate asynchronous processing (results stored for later retrieval). Prefer this over single-page or bulk URL analysis when you don't know the exact URLs in advance and want site-wide discovery.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error
- Missing required 'url' field returns a validation error
- Exceeding account balance or payment failure prevents scan from starting
- Very large sites may hit max_pages cap before full coverage
- Network timeouts for slow-responding target domains

## How this service works

Bytemine is a B2B data platform for sales and go to market teams. It covers contact and company search across 135M professionals and 10M companies, contact and company enrichment, LinkedIn profile search and enrichment, live company intelligence read from a company's own web presence, technographics, buying intent scoring, and hiring, funding, job posting, and job change signals. Search results bill per record returned, enrichment bills only on a successful match, and count queries are free. This server is a pay-per-use, transparent proxy in front of Bytemine's own API: it handles identity, payment, and proxying. Agents can purchase autonomously or with their human's approval. The complete verified paid surface is listed at /openapi.json, the source of truth for available operations. Each operation here carries its live price in x-payment-info. Use the operations and details here when they meet your needs. Filtered specs contain only matching operations; if you cannot find what you need here, use search or the service catalog. The live catalog at /manifest.json is authoritative for prices and any free included units (prices[].includedUnits) - some meters include free usage per account before any charge, reserved for agents claimed by a human with a verified email.

## Output

Returns a job_id string and a status string indicating the scan has been initiated. The job_id is used to continue the scan and later retrieve paginated results once the scan is complete.
