## 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 url-to-markdown-converter-0865760c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the content of https://techcrunch.com/2024/01/15/openai-news/ and convert it to clean markdown so I can read and process it?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to ingest the readable content of a specific public URL into a pipeline that processes text — especially when you want clean, structured Markdown rather than raw HTML. It's ideal for research agents, content summarizers, competitive intelligence tools, and RAG pipelines that need to read web pages. Prefer this over generic HTML scrapers when your downstream task requires Markdown formatting (headings, lists, links preserved).

## Known failure modes

- URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-200 status — fetch fails
- URL points to a paywalled or login-gated page — returns incomplete or login-form markdown
- URL resolves to a PDF or binary file — markdown conversion may be empty or garbled
- Malformed or invalid URL input — API returns an error
- Very large pages may time out or return truncated content
