## 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 delx-commerce-url-path-normalizer-d3655f00 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you normalize this URL for me — 'https://example.com//a//b?foo=bar' — and give me the clean host, path, and canonical form without actually fetching it?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, no-fetch URL normalization and parsing operation — especially in agent pipelines where you need to canonicalize URLs for deduplication, routing, or validation without making any network requests. It's ideal when you want deterministic, cheap ($0.003 USDC) URL parsing with structured output including host, path, and a validity flag. Prefer it over building custom regex parsing or calling heavier scraping/fetch APIs when you only need URL structure, not page content.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed or unparseable URL returns valid:false with no normalized output
- Missing or empty url field may return a validation error
- Non-string input for url field may cause a 400-class error
- Relative URLs without a host may fail to parse correctly

## How this service works

Pay-per-result APIs for agents. No signup. Exact price. Verifiable delivery. USDC on Base + Solana via x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: the extracted host (e.g. 'example.com'), the normalized path (e.g. '/a/b'), a boolean valid flag indicating whether the URL is well-formed, the schema identifier ('delx/util-url-path-normalize/v1'), and the fully normalized URL string (e.g. 'https://example.com/a/b').
