## 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 agishub-web-scraper-url-to-markdown-0db598e8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the page at https://example.com/blog/ai-trends and give me its content as clean markdown? It's a JavaScript-heavy site so make sure to render it first.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read or ingest a web page's content as clean, LLM-friendly Markdown — especially for RAG pipelines, content summarization, or any task where stripping HTML boilerplate matters. Prefer it over raw HTTP fetches when you need structured, token-efficient text. Enable render:true for SPAs or JS-heavy pages.

## Known failure modes

- URL is not publicly accessible or returns 4xx/5xx — scrape fails or returns error
- JavaScript-heavy page returns empty content when render:false is used — set render:true
- Page blocks bots via CAPTCHA or anti-scraping measures — content may be empty or partial
- Invalid URL format causes a validation error
- max_chars too small — returns heavily truncated content with truncated:true

## How this service works

Fetch any public web page and return its main content as clean, token-efficient Markdown (title, description, headings, links, lists). Set render:true to execute JavaScript first for single-page apps or JS-heavy pages that would otherwise come back empty. Built for RAG and for agents that need to read the contents of a URL.

## Output

A JSON object containing the page's main content rendered as clean Markdown, including title, meta description, headings, lists, and optionally links and images. May include a `truncated` flag if max_chars was applied.
