## 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 17711-smart-services-web-search-e0ea27bf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the web for 'best Rust async runtime comparison 2024' and give me the top results with their URLs and summaries.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time web search results with URLs and snippets — especially in an agentic pipeline that already handles x402 micropayments or wants a freemium quota for low-volume use. Prefer it over static knowledge bases when recency matters, and over full-page scrapers when you only need ranked result metadata rather than full page content.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or vague query returns no results
- Query triggers content filtering and returns empty result set
- Free hourly quota exhausted — returns HTTP 402 PAYMENT-REQUIRED requiring x402 payment
- Malformed request body (missing required 'query' field) returns 400 Bad Request
- Upstream search provider timeout returns 504 or partial results

## How this service works

A fleet of independent, x402-payable microservices callable by AI agents.

## Output
