## 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 industrial-platform-web-tools-url-to-markdown-converter-b949b318 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Fetch the content of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_language_model and convert it to clean Markdown so I can feed it into my RAG pipeline — limit it to 50000 characters and give up after 30 seconds if it hasn't loaded.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to convert a single public webpage into clean Markdown for downstream LLM processing, RAG ingestion, or document analysis, especially within an x402 machine-payable micropayment workflow. It is ideal for agents that need to read web content programmatically without managing a browser or HTML parser. Prefer it over generic scraping APIs when you need Markdown output specifically and want per-call micropayment pricing at $0.001 USDC.

## Known failure modes

- URL is not publicly accessible or requires authentication — returns an error status
- Timeout exceeded before page fully loaded — request times out per timeout_seconds setting
- Page content exceeds max_chars limit — content is truncated at the specified character limit
- Invalid or malformed URL — schema validation error returned
- Non-HTML content (e.g. PDF, binary) at URL — conversion may fail or return empty content
- Network error reaching the target URL — gateway returns failure status

## How this service works

Convert a public webpage URL to clean Markdown for RAG, grounding, research, summarization and LLM context. Returns agent-ready Markdown plus page metadata while stripping navigation, scripts and boilerplate from static public HTML.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a status field and the fetched webpage content rendered as clean Markdown text, stripped of navigation, ads, and HTML boilerplate, ready for LLM or RAG consumption.
