## 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 baby-blue-viper-web-action-fetch-extract-screenshot-urls-ae5cc4e1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the text content from https://example.com/article and extract all readable text from the page — use the extract_text action?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to programmatically fetch, extract text from, or screenshot a public web URL and is operating in a Lightning/x402 micropayment environment. Ideal for agents that need web access as a tool call without managing a browser themselves. Supports multi-step browser automation for more complex interactions.

## Known failure modes

- URL is not publicly accessible (private or behind auth wall)
- Invalid or malformed URL returns an error
- Unsupported action enum value causes validation error
- Selector not found on page when using CSS extraction
- Payment failure or insufficient balance returns 402
- Timeout on slow-loading pages
- Max bytes limit exceeded truncates response
