## 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 squeezeos-web-extract-once-93258531
```

Example prompt: Can you read this page for me and pull out the clean text — https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-68012066 — up to 5000 characters?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs a single one-shot clean text extraction from a known public HTTPS URL, particularly when cost-per-call matters (at $0.005 USDC) and when you need clean readable text rather than raw HTML. Prefer this over general crawlers when you want a simple, pay-per-use model with no subscription. Use the 10-credit pack sibling endpoint if you anticipate multiple extractions in the same session.

## Known failure modes

- Non-HTTPS or private URLs will be rejected
- Pages behind authentication or paywalls cannot be fetched
- Very large or slow-loading pages may time out
- max_chars outside the 1000-50000 range may be rejected
- Dynamically rendered JavaScript-only pages may return incomplete content
- HTTP 402 if payment is not provided or fails
