# x402 URL Bulk Normalize

> x402 URL Bulk Normalize is a paid API for AI agents from x402-utils.558686.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.0001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-25).

Normalizes, deduplicates, and validates a batch of URLs by standardizing scheme casing, removing default ports, sorting query parameters, and optionally stripping URL fragments.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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-url-bulk-normalize-fd3795d7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Normalize and deduplicate this list of URLs — lowercase the scheme and host, strip default ports, sort query params, and remove fragments: ['HTTPS://Example.COM:443/b?z=2&a=1#frag', 'http://example.com/b?a=1&z=2', 'ftp://Bad URL']

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need deterministic, cheap, repeatable URL normalization at scale — especially when deduplication and fragment stripping are needed in a single pass. Prefer it over building custom regex-based normalization when you need consistent canonical forms (sorted query params, lowercased scheme/host, default port removal) without spinning up an LLM. It's ideal as a preprocessing step before URL comparison, hashing, or database storage.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed URLs that cannot be parsed are counted in invalidCount and excluded from normalizedUrls rather than causing a request failure
- Empty urls array returns an empty normalizedUrls with zero counts
- Non-string items in the urls array may be rejected or counted as invalid
- Payment failure (402) if x402 micropayment is not properly attached
- Rate limiting or server errors (5xx) on the remote host

## How this service works

A compact x402 utility surface for agents that need cheap, repeatable non-LLM transformations before spending on heavier routes: CSV cleanup, JSON Schema checks, timestamp conversion, JWT decode, URL normalization, hashes, codecs, and text utilities.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a normalizedUrls array of canonical URL strings, a per-item breakdown, an invalidCount of URLs that could not be parsed, and a duplicateCount of URLs removed when deduplication is enabled.
