# Creator Desk Hostname Normalize API

> Creator Desk Hostname Normalize API is a paid API for AI agents from creator-desk-x402-isolated.onrender.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).

Normalizes a hostname string to a canonical, consistent format via an x402-paid utility endpoint

## 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 creator-desk-hostname-normalize-api-e91ff9d3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you normalize the hostname 'WWW.Example.COM' into a clean, canonical form for me?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call hostname normalization utility that requires no setup, API key, or subscription — just an x402-compatible wallet. Ideal for AI agents that occasionally need to canonicalize hostnames without integrating a full DNS or URL-parsing library. Best suited for single-call, low-volume normalization tasks where per-call micropayment billing ($0.01 USDC) is acceptable.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or null 'value' field returns an error or undefined behavior
- Invalid non-string input for the hostname value may cause a processing error
- Network timeout if the Render-hosted service is cold-starting
- Payment failure via x402 if insufficient USDC balance, blocking the request
- Malformed options object may be silently ignored or cause a 400 error

## How this service works

Machine-callable x402-paid utilities for autonomous agents.

## Output
