## 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 email-verify-agentdiet-dev-web-page-html-distiller-with-bm25-budget-d3cf9138 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Distill the content at https://stripe.com/docs/api into clean Markdown using budget mode, focused on 'payment intents', and keep it under 2000 tokens so I can feed it to my LLM without blowing my context window.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to efficiently convert webpage content or raw HTML into LLM-consumable text with token budget control. It is especially valuable when you want to minimize LLM token costs by compressing web content, need BM25-ranked relevance filtering to focus on specific topics within a large page, or want structured extraction (tables, metadata) from HTML. Prefer it over generic scrapers when ROI tracking and token savings metrics matter to your workflow.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — endpoint may return an error status
- HTML payload is malformed or empty — distillation may produce minimal output
- mode=budget used without a query field — BM25 ranking may not focus correctly
- max_tokens set too low — may result in heavily truncated or empty output
- Payment not provided or insufficient — x402 payment required error
- Rate limit exceeded — retries with Idempotency-Key recommended

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://email-verify.agentdiet.dev/v1/docs-to-markdown)

## Output

Returns a distilled version of the webpage or HTML in the chosen format (Markdown, structured JSON, skeleton, or BM25 excerpt), along with ROI proof metrics including raw token count, tokens saved, compression ratio percentage, distilled token count, LLM cost saved in USD, and an ROI multiplier. Also includes cache status (HIT/MISS) and billing information.
