## 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 defi-intel-agent-gateway-redirect-chain-tracer-09a2fd2a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you trace the full redirect chain for https://bit.ly/3xYzAbc using a GET request — I want to see every hop, the final URL, and any cookies that get set along the way?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the full hop-by-hop breakdown of an HTTP redirect chain rather than just the final destination. It is ideal for debugging affiliate or tracking links, auditing SEO redirects, resolving shortened URLs with cookie inspection, or verifying redirect integrity without needing an API key or account setup.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or times out — returns network/timeout error
- Redirect loop detected — may return error or truncated chain
- URL requires authentication/login — endpoint will not bypass login walls
- Malformed URL input — returns validation error
- Too many hops in chain — may be capped at a maximum depth

## How this service works

## Output

Returns a structured list of each redirect hop in order, including the URL at each hop, the HTTP status code (301, 302, 307, etc.), response headers, and any cookies set. Also includes the final resolved URL and its terminal status code.
