## 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-utility-desk-web-fetch-relay-d8e3f822
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the contents of https://example.com/some-page and show me what the page says?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to read live web content from an arbitrary URL and lacks direct HTTP access, or when you need a lightweight metered relay with x402 micropayment billing at $0.001 per call. It is especially suited for agent workflows that occasionally need to fetch a page without spinning up a full browser or crawler.

## Known failure modes

- Non-existent or unreachable URL returns an error status
- Redirects may or may not be followed depending on relay configuration
- Very large pages may be truncated (truncated: true in response)
- x402 payment failure if wallet not configured after the first free call
- Private or auth-gated URLs return 401/403 body content, not the protected resource
