## 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 whatchuneed-scrape-by-slug-a16c80b9 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you scrape the content at the slug 'best-hotels-in-paris' using whatchuneed and pull back whatever structured data it returns?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to extract content from a specific slug-identified resource and want to pay per call without a subscription. Useful for one-off scraping tasks within the whatchuneed ecosystem where the target is identified by a slug rather than a full URL.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or nonexistent slug returns empty result or error status
- Target resource unavailable or rate-limited causing timeout
- Malformed input string causes validation failure
- Payment not processed via x402 protocol results in 402 response
- Slug resolves to protected or bot-blocked content returning incomplete data
