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-web-crawl-read-2bd67974 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Crawl and read the content of https://example.com/article and return the full text so I can summarize it.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch and read the raw content of a single web page within a broader multi-capability platform that also handles payments, LLMs, crypto, and more — especially when you want to pay per call via the x402 protocol without managing a dedicated scraping subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error status
- Paywalled or bot-blocked pages may return empty or partial content
- Malformed input string causes a validation error
- Network timeouts result in a failed status with no content
- Dynamic JavaScript-rendered pages may not return full content
