## 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 crawlspur-news-document-crawl-delay-checker-2749f5f4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check what crawl delay is declared for this news article URL — https://example-news.com/2024/01/breaking-story — and tell me if there's a crawl-delay directive affecting it?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to check the declared crawl-delay directive for a news document URL — distinct from general indexability checks or sitemap status. Prefer this over general robots.txt checkers when the target object is explicitly a news article and you need the crawl-delay finding specifically, not broader technical SEO metrics.

## Known failure modes

- Target URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-200 status, preventing analysis
- robots.txt file is unreachable or malformed, making crawl-delay extraction impossible
- Invalid URL format or URL exceeds maximum length of 2048 characters
- CSS selector matches zero elements on the target page
- User agent string does not match pattern ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,80}$
- Network timeout when fetching the target news document or associated robots.txt
