# Context Trimmer: URL & HTML Distiller with BM25 Budget Control

> Context Trimmer: URL & HTML Distiller with BM25 Budget Control is a paid API for AI agents from shopify-spy.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-23).

Fetches a URL or accepts raw HTML and distills it into compact, agent-ready tokens using BM25-ranked budget control with a configurable token ceiling

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 shopify-spy-agentdiet-dev-context-trimmer-url-html-distiller-with-50ff549e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Fetch https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges and distill it into budget mode, focusing on 'payment intents refund flow', keeping it under 800 tokens so I can fit it in my prompt without wasting context.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to process web pages or HTML within a strict token budget, especially when LLM context window costs matter. It is superior to generic scrapers when you need BM25-ranked relevance filtering (mode=budget with a query) to surface only the most pertinent content. Prefer it over raw fetch-and-pass approaches when working with long documentation pages, product pages, or research articles where most content is noise. The ROI proof output makes it especially useful in cost-conscious agentic pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — endpoint may return an error status
- Raw HTML is empty or malformed — distillation may produce minimal or no output
- max_tokens set too low (below 20) — rejected by schema validation
- BM25 query provided without mode=budget — query may be ignored
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 — 402 response requiring payment
- Token budget too tight for meaningful extraction — output may be truncated or empty

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://shopify-spy.agentdiet.dev/v1/context-trimmer)

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the distilled content (Markdown, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-ranked excerpt depending on mode), plus an 'roi_proof' object showing raw_tokens, distilled_tokens, tokens_saved, compression_ratio_pct, roi_multiplier, and llm_cost_saved_usd — giving the agent quantified proof of how much context and cost was saved. Also includes cache status (HIT/MISS) and billing details.
