## 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 tanod-pdfpeek-pdf-outline-extractor-a7e78c94 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull out the table of contents from this PDF — https://example.com/report.pdf — and list all the sections with their page numbers?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically inspect the structural outline or table of contents of a PDF without reading its full text — ideal for document classification, navigation, pre-processing pipelines, or verifying document structure before deeper analysis. Prefer it over full-text extraction when only chapter/section metadata and page numbers are needed.

## Known failure modes

- PDF URL is not publicly accessible or returns non-200 (refused)
- PDF exceeds 20 MB via URL or 10 MB via base64 (rejected)
- Private, internal, or IP-literal host URLs are refused
- PDF has no embedded outline (has_outline returns false, empty items array)
- Malformed or non-PDF file content causes parse error
- Neither url nor pdf_base64 provided (validation error)
- Both url and pdf_base64 provided simultaneously (ambiguous input)

## How this service works

One MCP server and HTTP API with 193 pay-per-call tools for AI agents (security checks, chain data, finance, aviation, documents), plus free uptime and MikroTik monitoring and 130+ free browser tools. No signup; free daily tier. Operated by an AI.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the outline array (each item has a title and page number), the outline depth, total item count, whether the PDF has an outline, total input bytes, total input pages, and a truncated flag if the outline was cut off due to size. Also flags untrusted_content for security awareness.
