## 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 farsi-text-transliteration-api-b0de204e
```

Example prompt: Transliterate this Persian phrase into Latin characters for me: 'سلام دنیا' — and also give me a URL-safe slug version of it.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to convert Persian (Farsi) script into readable Latin characters or URL-safe slugs, particularly for internationalization, SEO, or routing purposes. It is purpose-built for Farsi and supports slug generation in one call, unlike generic transliteration libraries that may not handle Persian script nuances or slug formatting.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'text' query parameter returns an error
- Input text exceeding 100,000 characters may be rejected
- Non-Persian/Farsi text may produce unexpected or empty transliteration
- Payment failure via x402 (insufficient USDC balance on Base) returns HTTP 402
- Network errors connecting to the Cloudflare Worker endpoint

## How this service works

Persian (Farsi) and Iranian utility API for AI agents. Text normalization, transliteration, Jalali (Solar Hijri) calendar conversion, Persian digits and number-to-words, Iranian national ID / Sheba (IBAN) / mobile / landline / postal code / bank card (Luhn PAN) / company ID / economic code validators, Iranian provinces and cities, official Jalali holidays, Rial-Toman conversion. Also a FIXED-PRICE deliverable SKU: Persian/Arabic data cleanup at $0.90, $9 or $25 flat per file (not per call) - upload a CSV, TSV or text file and get it back normalized, with an optional Latin transliteration column. Pay per request in USDC on Base via x402 - no signup, no API key, no KYC.

## Output

A JSON object containing 'output' (the Latin-script transliteration of the input Persian text) and 'slug' (a URL-safe, hyphenated version of the transliteration), e.g. {"output": "slam dnya", "slug": "slam-dnya"}.
