## 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`):

```

Example prompt: Can you scrape the content from https://www.example.com/article and give me the clean readable text and any metadata?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to retrieve and read the textual content of an arbitrary public webpage on a pay-per-call basis without committing to a subscription. It's well-suited for one-off URL fetches, research tasks, or ad-hoc scraping pipelines where the x402 micropayment model (USDC on Base) is preferred over monthly API credits. Prefer this over browser automation tools when you just need clean text and metadata rather than full DOM interaction.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 HTTP status — scrape fails with an error
- Target page requires JavaScript rendering — content may be incomplete or empty if JS is needed
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance — request rejected before scraping
- Rate limiting or bot blocking by the target website — partial or failed extraction
- Malformed URL input — request rejected with validation error
- Paywalled or login-gated content — returns only publicly accessible portion
