## 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 wafermap-xyz-web-reader-eb4c0eae -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the content of https://example.com/article and return it as clean readable text so I can work with it?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly fetch and read the textual content of a single public HTTPS web page and receive clean Markdown output. It is ideal for agents that need to ingest web content without setting up a browser automation pipeline. Prefer it over raw HTTP fetching when you need cleaned, structured Markdown rather than raw HTML.

## Known failure modes

- URL must use HTTPS — HTTP URLs are rejected by schema pattern validation
- Page behind authentication or paywalls will return limited or no content
- Very large pages may be truncated or time out
- Non-existent URLs or DNS failures return an error
- Pages that block bots or require JavaScript rendering may return empty or partial content
