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 alpha-stream-agentdiet-dev-web-url-context-compressor-agentdiet-1ef9b7b8
```

Example prompt: Fetch https://stripe.com/docs/payments and distill it into compact markdown using budget mode focused on the query 'payment intents', capped at 500 tokens.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to load external web content into an LLM context window but want to minimize token usage. It is especially valuable when working with long documentation pages, articles, or any URL where full content would exceed your context budget. Prefer budget mode with a query when you need only the most relevant passages (BM25 relevance ranking), structured mode when you need tabular or metadata extraction, and skeleton mode for high-level outlines. This is distinct from generic web scrapers because it returns token-optimized, LLM-ready output with compression metrics.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — fetch fails with error
- Invalid or missing URL parameter — returns validation error
- Token budget too low (below minimum of 20) — rejected by schema validation
- BM25 query empty when mode=budget — may fall back to full content or error
- Raw HTML too large — may time out or be truncated
- Page behind authentication/paywall — content not accessible
- Malformed HTML — distillation may produce poor or empty output

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://alpha-stream.agentdiet.dev/v1/context-compress)

## Output

Returns a status field, distilled content object (Markdown, structured JSON, skeleton, or BM25 excerpt depending on mode), cache hit/miss metadata, billing info, and an roi_proof block showing raw token count, distilled token count, tokens saved, compression ratio percentage, ROI multiplier, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD.
