## 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-host-port-split-c8323291 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Split the host and port out of the string 'api.example.com:8443' so I can use them separately in my connection config.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, stateless, deterministic utility to parse a host:port or URL authority string into its components without any external dependencies. It is ideal for agent preflight routines, connection string normalization, and micro-utility pipelines where you need a reliable, cheap ($0.001 USDC) machine-readable result with no side effects or data retention.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed input string with no valid host may return an error or empty host field
- Input containing full URLs with scheme (e.g. https://) rather than bare authority strings may not parse as expected
- Non-string or missing 'host' input field returns a validation error
- Ambiguous IPv6 addresses without brackets may parse incorrectly

## How this service works

Split host and optional port from a host:port or URL authority string — first-party local utility for agent preflight and proven micro-utils expansion. Returns deterministic machine-readable JSON for $0.001 USDC via x402 on Base. Execution is first-party, local-only, stateless, and memory-only with no paid upstream, no input retention, no web search, no live RPC, and no mediagen. Results are advisory; the caller owns authorization, budgets, and production controls. Sibling of Delx routes that a…

## Output

A deterministic JSON object containing the separated host component and, if present, the port component extracted from the input host:port or URL authority string. If no port is present, the port field is absent or null.
