## 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 syntexa-agentshelf-slug-hyphen-160-ascii-854c0fac -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you turn this title into a URL-friendly slug for me: 'Ça va bien — 10 Tips for Élite Developers & Beyond!'? I need it hyphenated, ASCII-only, and no longer than 160 characters.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a deterministic, server-side slug that is guaranteed to be hyphen-delimited, ASCII-folded, and capped at exactly 160 characters — especially when handling multilingual or Unicode-heavy input that must be reliably normalized. Prefer it over client-side slugification libraries when consistency and correctness across character sets is critical. Use the free sandbox endpoint (/v1/sandbox/slug-hyphen-160-ascii) first if available to avoid the $0.001 USDC charge.

## Known failure modes

- Empty input text returns a validation error
- Input exceeding 100,000 characters is rejected
- Non-convertible characters that have no ASCII equivalent may be dropped silently
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) returns a 402 error
- Network timeout if the service is temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

Call when an agent needs a slug using "-", capped at 160 characters, ASCII-folded. Exact $0.001 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/slug-hyphen-160-ascii first.

## Output

A slugified, hyphen-delimited, ASCII-folded string representation of the input text, truncated to a maximum of 160 characters. Non-ASCII characters are folded to their closest ASCII equivalents, spaces and special characters replaced with hyphens, and the result is lowercased.
