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 github-audit-agentdiet-dev-agentdiet-article-extractor-with-bm25-e3223f54 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Grab the article at https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/01/openai-funding/ and distill it into clean markdown, keeping it under 2000 tokens and focusing on funding amounts and investor names.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to ingest web content within strict token budgets, particularly when using BM25-ranked extraction to surface the most query-relevant passages. Ideal for RAG pipelines, research agents, and LLM workflows where reducing token cost matters. Prefer over generic scrapers when you need built-in token-budget enforcement, compression ratio reporting, or multiple distillation modes (markdown, structured, skeleton, budget) from a single paid-per-call micro-API.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 — extraction fails with error status
- Raw HTML is malformed or empty — distillation returns minimal output
- max_tokens set too low relative to content — may truncate critical information
- BM25 query not provided when mode=budget — falls back to default behavior
- Payment not included or invalid — HTTP 402 returned before processing
- URL behind login/paywall — fetcher cannot access protected 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://github-audit.agentdiet.dev/v1/article-extractor)

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: distilled content in the requested mode (Markdown text, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-ranked excerpt), ROI proof metrics showing raw vs distilled token counts, tokens saved, compression ratio percentage, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD. Also includes cache hit/miss status and billing confirmation.
