## 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 tollmint-legal-scraping-api-3282b15e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you scrape the legal terms and conditions from this URL and give me the structured data back? I'll pay per call — no account setup needed.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need autonomous, pay-per-call legal data scraping with no prior account setup or invoicing — ideal for AI agents that need to extract legal text on demand without human-in-the-loop payment flows. Best suited when the x402 payment protocol is supported and per-call USDC microtransactions are acceptable.

## Known failure modes

- Target URL is inaccessible or returns a non-200 status — scraping fails with an error response
- Legal content is behind a login wall or JavaScript-rendered — extraction may be incomplete or empty
- Payment transaction fails or is rejected — request is not processed
- Malformed request parameters — API returns a validation error
- Rate limiting or blocking by the target site — partial or no data returned

## How this service works

An API that quotes its own price and takes payment in the same request. Built for autonomous agents: no account, no invoice, no human in the loop.

## Output

A JSON response containing the scraped and structured legal data extracted from the target source, returned immediately after per-call payment is processed via x402 protocol.
