## 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 x402node-web-reader-clean-markdown-from-any-url-79210591
```

Example prompt: Fetch the page at https://www.example.com/some-article and give me the content as clean markdown — it uses JavaScript rendering and might block normal scrapers.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to read a web page that actively blocks scrapers, requires JavaScript rendering (SPAs, React/Vue apps), or presents CAPTCHAs. Ideal for RAG ingestion pipelines, agent browsing tasks, and extracting content from access-controlled or bot-protected pages. Prefer over simple HTTP fetch when the target site uses anti-bot technology or client-side rendering.

## Known failure modes

- URL is unreachable or returns a permanent HTTP error (404, 410) — endpoint returns an error status
- CAPTCHA or anti-bot measures cannot be solved — returns an error or partial content
- Page requires login credentials not provided — returns login page markdown or error
- Malformed or missing URL parameter — returns 400 bad request
- Timeout due to slow or unresponsive target server — returns timeout error
- Content behind hard paywall requiring account authentication — returns paywall/teaser content only
