## 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 kihustle-code-comment-stripper-a4728e21 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you strip all the comments out of this Python code for me? Here's the snippet: `def add(a, b): # adds two numbers\n    return a + b # result`

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-use API to strip comments from code without setting up a local parser or linter. It is ideal for automation pipelines that process code snippets programmatically, or when you want a simple HTTP call rather than running a local AST-based tool. Best suited for individual snippets rather than large multi-file codebases.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported language identifier may result in no stripping or incorrect stripping of code
- Malformed or missing 'code' field may return an error response
- Very large code inputs may time out or return truncated results
- Edge cases like string literals containing comment-like syntax may be incorrectly stripped
- Non-standard comment styles for a given language may not be recognized
