## 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-crawl-budget-estimator-e0dcd132 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you estimate the crawl budget for my site — it has about 500 pages, an average crawl depth of 3.5, and content updates roughly every 7 days?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, automated crawl budget estimate based on structured site parameters (page count, depth, update frequency) rather than manually calculating crawler resource allocation. It is especially useful for SEO agents, site auditing workflows, or pre-launch planning where a programmatic estimate is needed at low cost ($0.002 per call).

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (pages, avg_depth, update_freq_days) may result in a failed or incomplete estimate
- Non-integer pages or update_freq_days values may cause validation errors
- Extremely large page counts or depths may produce inaccurate or edge-case estimates
- Network timeouts or payment failures via x402 may prevent the request from completing
