## 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 sovereign-x402-web-scraper-firecrawl-backed-c1cc739b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you scrape https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence and give me the content as clean Markdown?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch and clean a single URL's content into Markdown quickly, especially in an x402 micropayment workflow where you want per-call billing without a Firecrawl subscription. It's well-suited for agentic pipelines that need lightweight, on-demand web content extraction without managing API keys for Firecrawl directly.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 HTTP status — scrape fails with an error
- Page requires JavaScript rendering beyond what Firecrawl supports — incomplete or empty content returned
- Paywalled or login-gated pages return only the paywall/login prompt content
- Malformed or missing URL in the request body causes a validation error
- Rate limits on the underlying Firecrawl service may cause intermittent failures

## How this service works

Scrape a URL and return clean Markdown (via Firecrawl). Priced above Firecrawl's own per-scrape cost.

## Output

Returns the scraped web page's content as clean, human-readable Markdown, stripping away HTML boilerplate, navigation, and ads to leave just the meaningful textual content of the page.
