## 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-x-robots-tag-check-for-canonical-urls-f621ce37 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Check the X-Robots-Tag header on the canonical URL https://example.com/landing-page and tell me what indexability directive is set there.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to audit the X-Robots-Tag HTTP response header on a canonical URL object for SEO purposes. It is distinct from meta-robots checks (which inspect HTML head tags) and is targeted specifically at the canonical object type, making it the right choice when diagnosing indexability issues caused by server-level response headers on canonical pages.

## Known failure modes

- Target URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 HTTP status
- URL is not publicly accessible (private/intranet)
- No X-Robots-Tag header present on the canonical object
- Invalid URL format or URL exceeds maximum length
- CSS selector matches no element or multiple elements unexpectedly
- Network timeout when fetching the target URL

## How this service works

## Output

Returns the value of the X-Robots-Tag HTTP response header found on the specified canonical URL, indicating any crawl or indexing directives (e.g. noindex, nofollow, none) present on that object.
