## 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-slug-generator-f9baedb0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Take this blog post title — 'How to Build Scalable APIs in 2025: A Complete Guide' — and turn it into a clean URL slug I can use in my CMS.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need AI-assisted slug generation that handles edge cases like special characters, accented letters, punctuation, and non-standard spacing — especially within an existing Tempest content workflow where other content transformation endpoints are already in use. Prefer over simple regex-based slugifiers when input text is varied or multilingual.

## Known failure modes

- Missing `text` field returns a validation error
- Empty string input may return an empty or invalid slug
- Very long input strings may be truncated or cause unexpected output
- Special characters or non-Latin scripts may not slugify predictably
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in 402 response before processing

## How this service works

Compose, rewrite, translate, and refine content at scale. 25 AI-powered endpoints. Pay-per-call with USDC on Tempo.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a `success` boolean and a `data` object containing the slugified version of the input text — lowercased, with spaces and special characters replaced by hyphens, suitable for use in URLs and permalinks.
