## 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 anokha-web-tools-pdf-text-extractor-cbee33fa
```

Example prompt: Can you grab the text from this PDF — https://example.com/report.pdf — and tell me what it says, including how many pages it has?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to read the textual content of a publicly hosted PDF without downloading it locally. It is ideal for AI agents that need to ingest, summarize, or analyze PDF documents on-the-fly, especially in a pay-per-call serverless context where no API key management is desired and payment is handled via x402/USDC on Base.

## Known failure modes

- URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-200 status — extraction fails
- URL does not point to a valid PDF file — parse error returned
- PDF is scanned/image-based with no embedded text — empty or minimal text returned per page
- PDF is password-protected — extraction fails
- Very large PDFs may time out or return partial results
