## 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 contact-link-audit-agent-readiness-7ad98d4c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you passively audit example.com to check whether it has a publicly reachable contact link and tell me the verdict, what evidence was found, and what action I should take?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a passive, read-only, structured verdict on whether a public site exposes a discoverable contact link — especially for agent-readiness compliance checks, pre-outreach diligence, or regression monitoring against a previous baseline. It is purpose-built for this specific criterion within the Halowerk audit suite, unlike generic web scrapers that return raw HTML without structured evaluation or verdicts.

## Known failure modes

- Target URL is unreachable or returns a non-2xx response — audit cannot complete
- Malformed or overly long target URL causes a validation error
- Contact link exists but is behind a login wall — passive check returns inconclusive or limited result
- Rate limiting or blocking by the target site prevents page retrieval
- Baseline object from a previous snapshot is incompatible or malformed — comparison skipped

## How this service works

Contact discovery audit fetches current public evidence from the supplied target and evaluates the documented criterion. It returns the observation, threshold, verdict, exact evidence source, limitations and a mode-specific action. The check is passive: no login attempt, payload injection, exploit, purchase, form submission or load test is performed.

## Output

Returns a structured audit result including: the observed contact link evidence (or lack thereof), the evaluation criterion and threshold used, a pass/fail/warning verdict, the exact public evidence source URL, known limitations of the passive check, and a recommended mode-specific action — all without performing any login, form submission, or intrusive test.
