## 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 web-extract-fetch-url-as-markdown-metadata-links-ec0d1dc6
```

Example prompt: Fetch the page at https://example.com/blog/ai-agents and give me the full text as markdown, including any links on the page.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to read the human-readable text content of a public webpage and want it returned as structured Markdown along with metadata and links — ideal for summarization, research, content monitoring, or link discovery tasks. Prefer this over PDF extraction siblings when the target is an HTML page rather than a document file.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns a non-200 HTTP status — error response with status code
- URL points to a binary file that cannot be converted to markdown — empty or error response
- maxChars value outside allowed range (1000–200000) — validation error
- URL is a JavaScript-heavy SPA and content is not server-rendered — partial or empty markdown
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 protocol — 402 payment required error

## How this service works

Web extraction, domain lookups and document tools for AI agents. Pay per call in USDC via x402 on Base or Algorand.

## Output

Returns the page content rendered as Markdown (up to 200,000 characters, default 50,000), along with page metadata (title, description, canonical URL, etc.) and a list of hyperlinks found on the page.
