## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability ai-crawler-monetization-kit-8f8ed4ed
```

Example prompt: Can you give me the full AI crawler monetization kit so I can start charging AI bots for access to my API — I need the robots.txt patch, llms.txt update, x402 route pricing matrix, a Cloudflare Worker enforcement snippet, and an audit log schema all in one go?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you are a content owner or API provider who wants a turnkey, opinionated bundle for implementing x402-based AI crawler monetization, rather than assembling individual components (robots.txt, Cloudflare Workers, pricing config) manually. Ideal when you need a single call to get everything needed to go from zero to enforced paid crawler access.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not submitted or insufficient USDC balance — 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed query parameters — 400 Bad Request
- Endpoint temporarily unavailable — 503 Service Unavailable
- Network timeout — connection error with no payload returned

## How this service works

Paid kit for content/API owners turning AI crawler access into x402 paid access: returns crawler policy, robots.txt and llms.txt patches, x402 route matrix, Cloudflare Worker enforcement snippet, pricing block, crawler rules, audit log schema, and verification plan.

## Output

A structured kit containing: crawler access policy, patched robots.txt and llms.txt directives, an x402 route matrix with per-route pricing, a ready-to-deploy Cloudflare Worker enforcement snippet, a pricing block, crawler rule definitions, an audit log schema, and a verification/testing plan — everything needed to gate and monetize AI crawler access via x402 micropayments.
