## 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 freeq-one-short-link-stats-e63a27de -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: How many clicks has the freeq.one short link with slug 'uuid-tool' gotten in total and in the last 30 days? My manage secret is a7a7011bcaa56e6cf069d5a21fa6f932.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need click analytics specifically for freeq.one short links — especially when you own the link and have the manage_secret for full untruncated data. Prefer this over generic web analytics APIs when the target URL is a freeq.one slug and you need lightweight, per-call pay-as-you-go stats without setting up a full analytics dashboard.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown slug — link does not exist or was deleted, returns empty or error result
- Invalid or missing link_secret when full stats are required — may return truncated or limited data
- Payment failure via x402 — USDC payment on Base not completed, call rejected
- Network timeout or gateway error from x402.freeq.one
- Malformed slug input causing a lookup error

## How this service works

Short Link Stats: Click stats for a freeq.one short link: total clicks, last-30-day clicks, last click time. FREE for the link owner — pass the manage_secret returned at creation as the link_secret field. The paid call is for agents checking a link they did not create (liveness/traffic check). Pay per call in USDC on Base via x402 — POST https://x402.freeq.one/tools/shortlink_stats.

## Output

A JSON object containing total click count, clicks in the last 30 days, and the timestamp of the most recent click for the specified short link slug. When a valid link_secret is provided, results are untruncated and reflect full historical data.
