## 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 token-intel-agentdiet-dev-web-content-distillation-with-bm25-budget-f51043f7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Distill https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment into budget mode focused on the query 'payment intent lifecycle', keeping it under 500 tokens, so I can include it in my prompt without blowing my context window.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fit webpage or HTML content into a limited LLM context window and want measurable token savings with ROI proof. Prefer budget mode with a BM25 query when you only need sections relevant to a specific topic. Use markdown mode for general-purpose distillation. Best suited for agentic pipelines that need to retrieve and compress live web content in a single call rather than fetching and summarizing separately.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 — fetch fails, error status returned
- HTML payload is empty or malformed — distillation returns minimal or empty data object
- max_tokens set below 20 — validation error
- BM25 query provided without mode=budget — query may be ignored
- Token budget too small for meaningful content — returns truncated excerpt with low ROI proof
- Payment not authorized — x402 payment required response before execution

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://token-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/prompt-compress)

## Output

Returns a 'data' object containing the distilled content (Markdown string, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-ranked excerpt depending on mode), plus an 'roi_proof' object with raw_tokens, distilled_tokens, tokens_saved, compression_ratio_pct, roi_multiplier, and llm_cost_saved_usd. Also includes cache hit/miss status and billing details.
