## 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 boring-api-product-feed-validator-18a5307b -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Can you validate my Google Merchant product feed at https://mystore.com/feeds/products.csv and tell me if there are any errors or compliance issues?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need deterministic, rule-based validation of structured e-commerce product feeds against a specific platform profile (Google Merchant, Shopify, or Meta Catalog). It is purpose-built for feed compliance checking rather than general-purpose data validation or LLM-based content review, making it ideal for automated pre-submission pipelines or quality gates in e-commerce workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Inaccessible file URL returns an error status — ensure the URL is publicly reachable
- Unsupported or misspelled profile name causes a validation error
- Malformed or non-parseable file (e.g. corrupt CSV) may return low confidence or error
- Options JSON string that is malformed or references unknown schema fields may be rejected
- Large files may time out if the host server is slow to respond

## How this service works

Deterministic analysis APIs and MCP tools: supplier
price list comparison, PDF table extraction, product feed validation, product data mapping.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'result' object containing detailed validation findings, a 'status' field ('success' or error), and a 'confidence' object with a 'level' field (e.g. 'high') indicating how certain the validation engine is about its assessment.
