## 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 apache-htaccess-validator-881ab0ef -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you validate this .htaccess file for me and tell me if the syntax is correct? Here's the content: 'Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^old-page$ /new-page [R=301,L]'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, automated programmatic check of Apache .htaccess syntax before deploying to a web server. It is best suited for CI/CD pipelines, pre-deployment checks, or developer tools that need a lightweight, pay-per-use validation step without standing up a full Apache instance. If you need detailed line-by-line error reporting or support for other web server configs (nginx, Caddy), look for a more feature-complete linter.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing 'htaccess' field in request body — likely returns an error or unexpected result
- Malformed JSON payload — API may return a 400-level error
- Extremely large .htaccess content may time out or be rejected
- Ambiguous result when directives are syntactically valid but semantically questionable — the API may still return 'success'
- Network or payment failure due to x402 micropayment not being processed correctly
