Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 prompt-guard-agentdiet-dev-web-url-to-markdown-distiller-with-bm25-bd22bd06
```

Example prompt: Fetch the Stripe pricing page at https://stripe.com/pricing and distill it into compact markdown — keep it under 800 tokens using budget mode focused on the query 'credit card fees'.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to ingest web page content within a strict token budget, or when you want BM25-ranked relevance filtering to focus on a specific query topic. It is especially useful for feeding documentation, landing pages, or research URLs into an LLM context efficiently. Prefer it over generic scrapers when token cost savings and compression metrics matter, or when you need structured/skeleton output rather than raw HTML.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error status
- Missing required 'url' parameter causes a 400-level error
- mode=budget without a query or max_tokens may return unfiltered content
- Very large pages may hit processing limits or return partial content
- Raw HTML input too large may be rejected
- Payment failure via x402 prevents response delivery

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://prompt-guard.agentdiet.dev/v1/docs-to-markdown)

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the distilled content (Markdown, structured JSON, skeleton, or BM25 excerpt depending on mode), an 'roi_proof' object showing raw_tokens, distilled_tokens, tokens_saved, compression_ratio_pct, roi_multiplier, and llm_cost_saved_usd, plus optional cache hit/miss info and billing details.
