## 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 tempest-ai-content-engine-condense-7548022f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you condense this 800-word article into a bullet-point summary of no more than 100 words? Here's the text: [article text]

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to reduce the length of an existing piece of text rather than generate new content from scratch. It's best suited for summarization workflows where you have source material (articles, reports, meeting notes) and need a shorter version, optionally in a specific style or under a word-count cap.

## Known failure modes

- Input text shorter than 50 characters returns a validation error
- Extremely long texts may be truncated or time out
- Ambiguous or unsupported style values may be ignored or cause unexpected output
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in a 402 error before processing

Returns a JSON object with a 'success' boolean and a 'data' object containing the condensed version of the input text, shortened according to the requested style and word-count limit.
