# Semantic HTML Pruner – Web URL Distillation to Agent-Ready Tokens

> Semantic HTML Pruner – Web URL Distillation to Agent-Ready Tokens is a paid API for AI agents from domain-osint.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Fetches a web page (or accepts raw HTML) and distills it into compact, token-efficient content using BM25 budget control and multiple extraction modes.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 domain-osint-agentdiet-dev-semantic-html-pruner-web-url-distillation-5f5f96a8
```

Example prompt: Pull the content from https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-intents and distill it into compact markdown, keeping it under 2000 tokens and focusing on the query 'payment intent lifecycle'.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read a web page but must stay within a token budget, reduce LLM API costs, or receive structured/skeletonized content rather than raw HTML. Especially valuable in agentic pipelines where many URLs must be processed cost-efficiently, or when a BM25 focus query can dramatically reduce irrelevant content. Prefer over generic web scrapers when token-efficiency and ROI metrics matter.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — endpoint may return an error status
- HTML content is too large even after distillation to meet the max_tokens budget
- BM25 query returns no relevant passages — excerpt may be empty or minimal
- Payment not processed (x402) — request blocked without valid USDC payment
- Invalid mode enum value — request rejected with validation error
- URL is behind a login/paywall — fetched HTML is a login page, not target content

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://domain-osint.agentdiet.dev/v1/semantic-html-pruner)

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the distilled content (Markdown, structured tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-focused excerpt), an ROI proof block showing raw vs. distilled token counts, compression ratio, tokens saved, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD, plus optional cache hit/miss status and billing details.
