## 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 orthogonal-brand-simplified-retrieval-a49a2c27
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the simplified brand data for stripe.com — I just need the colors, logos, and title, nothing fancy.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you only need core brand identity elements (colors, logos, title, backdrops) and want a faster, lighter response than a full brand retrieval. Ideal for UI previews, competitive brand snapshots, or enriching company records with visual identity data without the overhead of a complete brand dataset.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found or has no detectable brand data — returns empty or partial result
- Request exceeds the specified timeoutMS threshold — returns 408 status
- Invalid domain format in query parameter — returns validation error
- Domain exists but has no crawlable brand assets — minimal or null fields returned

## How this service works

Returns a simplified version of brand data containing only essential information: domain, title, colors, logos, and backdrops. This endpoint is optimized for faster responses and reduced data transfer.

## Output

A simplified brand object containing the domain name, site title, primary and secondary brand colors, logo image URLs, and backdrop/hero image URLs — optimized for fast delivery with minimal payload.
