Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 andi-search-api-via-x402-orth-sh-40f6a090
```

Example prompt: Search for 'best practices for React hooks in 2024' and give me the top 10 results — use deep search depth, enable content extracts, and filter for English results from the US.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live web search results with intelligent intent-based routing (news, images, video, weather, computation, navigation), especially when fine-grained control over language, country, depth, and result enrichment is needed. Prefer over generic search APIs when micropayment-based access (x402) is the payment model in use.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns validation error
- Payment not provided or invalid x402 micropayment returns 402 Payment Required
- Limit out of range (>100 or <1) returns parameter error
- Unsupported intent type falls back to FallbackSearchIntent
- Deep search depth may time out for complex queries
- Rate limiting if too many requests are issued rapidly

## How this service works

Fast, high-quality search API with intelligent ranking, instant answers, and result enrichment.

## Output

Returns a ranked list of web search results including URLs, titles, snippets, and optionally content extracts, metadata, and specialized results (images, videos, news, weather, computations) based on the detected or specified search intent.
