# Webpage Distiller – Compact Agent-Ready Token Extractor

> Webpage Distiller – Compact Agent-Ready Token Extractor is a paid API for AI agents from mcp-security.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Fetches a URL or raw HTML and distills it into a token-budget-controlled, agent-readable format using markdown, structured, skeleton, or BM25-focused modes

## 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 mcp-security-agentdiet-dev-webpage-distiller-compact-agent-ready-df4c147b
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch https://stripe.com/docs/api and distill it into compact markdown, keeping it under 2000 tokens so it fits my context window?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when your agent needs to ingest a web page but wants to minimize token usage — especially for LLM pipelines where context window cost matters. It excels over raw fetch+parse approaches because it provides built-in BM25 relevance filtering, multiple output formats (markdown, structured JSON, outline skeleton), and explicit ROI metrics so you can verify compression value. Prefer it over generic scraping APIs when you need the output pre-formatted for downstream LLM consumption with a strict token ceiling.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error status
- Raw HTML too large may be truncated or rejected
- mode=budget without a query or max_tokens may return unfiltered content
- BM25 query returning no relevant matches may yield minimal or empty excerpt
- Rate-limited or paywalled pages may return empty or partial content
- Malformed HTML may produce garbled markdown output

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://mcp-security.agentdiet.dev/v1/webpage-distiller)

## Output

Returns an object with a 'data' field containing the distilled content in the requested format (markdown text, structured JSON with tables/metadata, a skeleton outline, or a BM25-ranked excerpt), along with an 'roi_proof' block showing raw vs distilled token counts, compression ratio percentage, tokens saved, ROI multiplier, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD. Also includes optional cache hit/miss status and billing details.
