## 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 ai-rook-web-search-api-c45c0eb0
```

Example prompt: Search the web for 'best DeFi yield strategies 2025' and give me the top 10 results with their titles and URLs.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time web search results without API keys or signup, and can pay per-call in USDC via x402 on Base mainnet. Ideal for autonomous agents that need current web information on-demand with micropayment economics ($0.005/call) rather than a subscription model.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC balance — returns HTTP 402 requiring x402 payment
- Empty or malformed query string — may return zero results or an error
- Query too long or contains unsupported characters — may return an error response
- Network timeout or upstream search provider failure — returns 5xx error
- Rate limiting if micropayment flow is not properly handled
