## 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-utilpeek-url-slug-generator-5eaa08a2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Slugify this title for me — 'Exploring the Best Coffee Shops in New York City' — using underscores instead of hyphens, keep it lowercase, and cap it at 60 characters.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call slug generation utility without standing up your own text processing infrastructure. Ideal for AI agents building CMS pipelines, e-commerce product URLs, or SEO permalinks that need configurable separator, case, and length options in a single API call.

## Known failure modes

- Text exceeds 1000 character limit — request rejected with validation error
- max_length below 1 or above 200 — validation error returned
- Empty or whitespace-only text — may return empty slug or error
- Non-ASCII characters may be transliterated or stripped depending on service behavior
- Payment failure via x402 protocol — endpoint returns 402 before processing

## How this service works

## Output
