## 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 manylives-text-rewrite-ea3b8e0d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you rewrite this text to sound short and friendly: 'We are writing to inform you that the aforementioned service will be unavailable for a period of time.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pay-per-call, no-account-required text rewriting service accessible via x402 micropayment on Base. Ideal for AI agents that need lightweight on-demand text transformation without API key setup or subscriptions.

## Known failure modes

- Text exceeds 20,000 character limit — request rejected
- Missing required 'text' field — validation error
- Insufficient USDC balance or payment failure via x402 — 402 response
- Ambiguous or empty style parameter may produce a default rewrite rather than an error

## How this service works

Pay-per-call tools for people building AI agents: live web search and page contents, point-in-time crypto market data and news for backtests (no lookahead), verifiable track records of 1,000 crypto strategies locked on the Base network, company profiles, quick AI and batch prices. Ask us to turn a public website into a JSON endpoint. Pay per call, no account, free trial.

## Output

A JSON object with a single field 'rewritten' containing the AI-rewritten version of the input text in the requested style.
