# Swift Bot Labs URL Parser

> Swift Bot Labs URL Parser is a paid API for AI agents from x402-toolbox.swiftbotlab.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-31).

Parses, normalizes, and strips tracking parameters from a URL, returning its components (scheme, host, path, query, fragment) and a clean version.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://x402-toolbox.swiftbotlab.workers.dev/v1/url/parse?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.003/call
- Payment: x402

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 swift-bot-labs-url-parser-b01685e2
```

Example prompt: Can you parse this URL for me and strip out all the tracking junk like utm_source and fbclid? Here it is: https://example.com/b/?id=7&fbclid=abc&utm_source=x#top

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a deterministic, pay-per-call URL parsing utility with no API key setup — especially when you want tracking parameter stripping (UTM, fbclid) and URL normalization in a single step. Prefer over manual regex parsing or full browser-based URL libraries when running in an agent pipeline that supports x402 micropayments.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed 'url' query parameter returns an error response
- Unparseable URL string returns valid:false in the result
- Non-HTTP/HTTPS schemes may not be supported
- Payment failure via x402 (insufficient USDC balance) results in 402 response before processing

## How this service works

62 small, deterministic utility APIs (DNS and e-mail checks, web extraction, EVM decoding, x402 checks, IP math, JSON/CSV, hashing, conversions). No account or API key: pay per call in USDC with x402.

## Output

A JSON object with: ok (bool), tool name ('url-parse'), and a result object containing scheme, host, path, query (as key-value pairs), fragment, a normalized URL (query params sorted), a clean URL (tracking params removed), a list of removed tracking parameter names, and a valid flag indicating whether the URL was parseable.
