## 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 tavily-site-map-via-locus-x402-ad582aa1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you map out all the URLs on docs.example.com, going up to 3 levels deep, with a maximum of 100 URLs, and focus on finding pages related to API reference documentation?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover the URL structure of an entire website or subsection rather than fetching content from a single page. Prefer this over a single-page scrape when your goal is site auditing, SEO analysis, link enumeration, or building a crawl queue. The natural language instructions parameter makes it especially useful when you want to bias discovery toward specific topics or sections without hardcoding URL patterns.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error with no URL list
- Exceeding crawl limits may return a partial URL list
- Robots.txt restrictions may block discovery of certain pages
- Rate limiting or bot detection on the target site may reduce results
- Malformed input schema returns a validation error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents the request from executing
