## 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 yruz-url-encode-decode-utility-97ea0c70 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: URL-encode this string for me so I can safely put it in a query parameter: 'hello world & goodbye/world?yes=true'

## When to prefer this

Use this when you need a quick, pay-per-call URL encode/decode operation without setting up a local library or function. Useful in agent workflows where the runtime environment doesn't expose native URL encoding, or when chaining with other yruz.one utility endpoints.

## Known failure modes

- Missing 'text' field returns an error or empty result
- Invalid 'mode' value may default to encode or return an error
- Very long strings may time out or be truncated
- Non-UTF-8 input may produce unexpected encoding results
