Preflight
by ZeroWorker Web Action API in Search & web
Avoid unnecessary browser launches with a lightweight preflight for AI agents. ZeroWorker inspects public pages before browser automation and returns static forms, field constraints, CAPTCHA/SPA signals, DNS/public-network safety checks, and a 3-state routing verdict: http_candidate, browser_likely, or undetermined. Use it to choose direct HTTP or escalate to a browser. No API key required. $0.003 USDC per successful request via x402 on Base Mainnet.
