## 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-html-escape-utility-ff515e46 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you HTML-escape this string for me so it's safe to drop into an HTML page: '<script>alert("hello & goodbye")</script>'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to programmatically escape HTML entities in a string as part of an automated workflow, particularly when the task is a discrete, pay-per-call utility invocation via the x402 micropayment protocol. It is well-suited for agents that dynamically sanitize content before web rendering, email templating, or storage, and where a lightweight, purpose-built API call is preferable to implementing escaping logic inline.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or null 'value' field may return an error or empty result
- Malformed JSON request body causes a 400-level error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks processing and returns a 402 response
- Extremely large input strings may cause timeouts or truncation
- Invalid options object structure may be ignored silently or cause a validation error

## How this service works

Machine-callable x402-paid utilities for autonomous agents.

## Output
