## 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-url-distiller-with-bm25-budget-control-4e0b6f27
```

Example prompt: Fetch https://stripe.com/docs/payments and distill it into compact markdown using budget mode with a focus query of 'payment intents' and a maximum of 2000 tokens, so I can use it without blowing my context window.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fit web content into a limited LLM context window efficiently, especially when you want BM25-relevance-filtered excerpts or structured extraction from a URL. It is particularly valuable for agentic workflows that call external documentation, news, or data pages repeatedly and need to minimize token costs. Prefer it over raw web scrapers when compression ratio and token savings matter.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error status
- HTML too large to process within token budget
- BM25 query returns no relevant excerpts matching the focus topic
- mode=budget without a query or max_tokens may produce unpredictable results
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 protocol blocks the request

## 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/pdf-extract)

## Output

Returns a distilled representation of the webpage or HTML in the requested mode (Markdown, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25 budget excerpt), along with ROI proof metrics including raw vs. distilled token counts, compression ratio, tokens saved, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD. Also includes cache status and billing details.
