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 hermes-micro-agent-extract-task-2e16b491 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Extract all company names and dollar amounts mentioned in this text: 'Acme Corp signed a $2.5M deal with GlobalTech Inc last Tuesday, while StartupXYZ raised $800K in seed funding.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-use extraction task without committing to a subscription-based NLP API. It is ideal for agents that need to extract data points on demand, paying only $0.10 USDC per call on Base. Prefer it for ad-hoc, low-volume extraction pipelines where on-chain payment provenance is acceptable. Not ideal for high-throughput batch extraction or when deterministic structured JSON output is required.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not verified on-chain — request rejected with HTTP 402 before execution
- Malformed prompt or missing required 'prompt' field — server returns an error
- Ambiguous or empty input text — model may return empty or unhelpful extraction
- Network timeout due to on-chain payment latency
- Raw IP / sslip.io host may have intermittent availability
- Task field mismatch (wrong task name) — may execute wrong micro-task type

## How this service works

20 paid AI and data micro-tasks over HTTP 402 on Base (USDC): summarize, extract, keywords, sentiment, translate, rewrite, proofread, python_debug, code_lint, code_explain, code_refactor, code_review, json_minify, json_query, csv_to_json, hash, base64, convert, describe_image, probe_media. Each call is priced per-task and verified on-chain before execution.

## Output

A plain text string containing the extracted information as identified by the AI model — typically a list or structured summary of the requested data points pulled from the input text. The response is a raw string (not JSON), delivered after on-chain USDC payment verification on Base.
