## 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 agentshelf-syntexa-ch-slug-dot-40-ascii-292d6330 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you turn this title into a dot-separated slug for me, ASCII-safe and under 40 characters? The text is: 'Héllo Wörld: A Guide to Café Culture'

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need a dot-separated slug (not hyphen-separated) with ASCII folding, capped at 40 characters. Prefer the unpaid sandbox POST /v1/sandbox/slug-dot-40-ascii first to avoid unnecessary charges. Choose this over generic slug libraries when operating in an agent environment that already handles x402 payments and you need a deterministic, network-free transformation.

## Known failure modes

- Empty input text returns a validation error
- Input text that results in an empty slug after ASCII folding may return an error or empty string
- Payment failure if x402 USDC payment of $0.005 is not accepted
- Network timeout on the paid endpoint (prefer free sandbox endpoint /v1/sandbox/slug-dot-40-ascii first)

## How this service works

Call when an agent needs a slug using ".", capped at 40 characters, ASCII-folded. Exact $0.005 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/slug-dot-40-ascii first.

## Output

A dot-separated, ASCII-folded slug derived from the input text, truncated to a maximum of 40 characters. Special characters are folded to their ASCII equivalents and spaces/punctuation are replaced with dots.
