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 sec-intel-agentdiet-dev-web-distillation-with-bm25-budget-control-bba76e87 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Distill https://stripe.com/docs/payments into clean markdown using budget mode, focused on the query 'payment intents API', and keep it under 500 tokens so I can fit it in my prompt.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to compress web content for LLM consumption and want verifiable token savings metrics. It is ideal for RAG pipelines, agentic web browsing with strict context budgets, or any workflow where you need to fetch and distill a URL into a query-focused excerpt using BM25 ranking. Prefer it over generic scraping tools when token efficiency and cost savings proof matter, or when you need structured JSON extraction from HTML without manual parsing.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — endpoint may return an error status with fetch failure message
- HTML payload is empty or malformed — distillation may return minimal or empty data field
- max_tokens set below 20 — rejected by schema validation
- query omitted when mode=budget — BM25 ranking falls back to default or returns error
- Payment not provided or insufficient — x402 payment required response
- Rate limiting or timeout on target URL fetch — latency spike or failure

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/rag-diet)

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the distilled content (Markdown, structured JSON, skeleton, or BM25 excerpt), an 'roi_proof' object showing raw vs distilled token counts, compression ratio, tokens saved, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD, plus optional cache hit/miss status and billing details.
