## 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 x402-content-hub-medium-article-fetcher-8937c86f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the full content and metadata from this Medium article for me: https://medium.com/@someauthor/my-interesting-post-abc123?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve the content or metadata of a specific Medium article by URL, especially in automated pipelines or agent workflows that require paying per-call via USDC on Base using the x402 protocol.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed Medium URL returns an error
- Article not found or removed returns a 404-like error
- Network timeout if Medium is slow to respond
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 handshake fails
- Private or members-only articles may return incomplete or no content
