## 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-page-removal-60f0f8be -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you remove pages 1, 3, and 5-7 from this PDF at https://example.com/report.pdf using pdfpeek?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a simple, pay-per-call PDF page removal with no setup, supporting both URL-referenced and base64-encoded PDFs up to 20 MB. Prefer it over general PDF libraries when operating in an agent workflow that needs a hosted API rather than local processing, especially when working with PDFs fetched from public URLs.

## Known failure modes

- PDF URL is unreachable or returns a non-PDF file
- PDF exceeds the 20 MB URL or 10 MB base64 size limit
- Invalid page specification format (must match pattern of numbers, ranges, and 'last' keywords)
- Page number specified is out of range for the document
- Neither url nor pdf_base64 provided
- Both url and pdf_base64 omitted or both provided ambiguously
- Malformed or password-protected PDF that cannot be parsed

## 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

A PDF file with the specified pages removed, returned as binary PDF content. The remaining pages retain their original content, order, and formatting.
