## 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 scrapfly-crawl-summarize-98e48758 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you scrape and summarize the article at https://www.theverge.com/2024/6/1/example-article and give me a summary of no more than 500 characters?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, human-readable summary of a specific URL without doing your own scraping and NLP pipeline. Ideal when you want a single-step 'fetch and condense' operation rather than raw HTML extraction. Prefer over raw crawl endpoints when the goal is a readable digest, not structured data extraction.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 HTTP status — success: false with no data
- URL is paywalled or blocks scrapers — returns partial or empty content
- maxLength too small to produce a meaningful summary — may return truncated or low-quality output
- Invalid or malformed URL input — request fails validation
- Payment failure on Base chain via x402 — request not processed

## How this service works

## Output
