## 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 pennyrail-email-extractor-parser-432a25da -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull out all the email addresses from this text for me: 'Please reach out to john.doe@example.com or support@company.org for more information. You can also CC hr@corp.net.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, lightweight, pay-per-call email extraction from arbitrary text without setting up your own regex pipeline. It is ideal for agents processing user-pasted content, scraped web text, or documents where email contacts need to be isolated programmatically. At $0.001 per call it is cost-effective for high-frequency extraction tasks in automated workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or whitespace-only input string returns no emails found
- Malformed input that is not a string may result in a 400 or validation error
- Text with no email addresses returns an empty result set
- Very long input strings may hit size limits or timeout
- Obfuscated emails (e.g. 'user at domain dot com') may not be detected as valid addresses
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.001 fee
