## 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-web-url-to-markdown-distiller-with-bm25-2bef4165
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the Stripe docs page at https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges and distill it into compact markdown with a 2000 token budget, focusing on the 'authentication' topic?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read or process web content but must stay within a token budget, when you need structured or outline-form extraction from arbitrary URLs, or when you want to measure and minimize LLM token costs from web content. Prefer it over generic scrapers when BM25 relevance filtering or multiple distillation modes (markdown, structured, skeleton, budget) are required.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error status
- max_tokens below minimum of 20 is rejected
- BM25 query with no matching content may return minimal excerpt
- Raw HTML input that is malformed may produce poor distillation quality
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 may block the call

## 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/docs-to-markdown)

## Output

Returns a distilled version of the webpage in the requested mode (markdown, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-focused excerpt), along with ROI proof metrics including raw vs distilled token counts, compression ratio percentage, tokens saved, ROI multiplier, and estimated LLM cost saved. Also includes cache status and billing details.
