## 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 hyphen-slug-generator-120-char-ascii-folded-cc6c13c6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Turn 'Héllo Wörld! This is a Test Article (2024)' into a hyphen-separated URL slug, ASCII-folded and capped at 120 characters.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need deterministic, server-side slug generation with ASCII folding (e.g. converting accented or unicode characters to ASCII equivalents) and a hard 120-character cap — especially when you cannot implement the logic locally or need a consistent, reproducible slug across different agent runs. Prefer the free sandbox endpoint POST /v1/sandbox/slug-hyphen-120-ascii first if available to avoid the $0.009 USDC charge.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing 'text' field returns a validation error
- Text exceeding 100,000 characters is rejected per input schema
- Payment of $0.009 USDC not received results in HTTP 402 Payment Required
- Non-UTF8 or malformed input may cause encoding errors

## How this service works

Call when an agent needs a slug using "-", capped at 120 characters, ASCII-folded. Exact $0.009 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/slug-hyphen-120-ascii first.

## Output

A single slugified string: lowercase, hyphen-delimited, ASCII-folded (accented/unicode characters converted to their ASCII equivalents), and truncated to a maximum of 120 characters. No extra metadata, just the slug.
