## 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 anicca-x402-live-web-search-2e424d7b
```

Example prompt: Search the web for 'best open-source LLM fine-tuning frameworks in 2025' and give me the top 3 results — you can pay for the search with USDC, I don't have an Exa key.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live web search results without the caller holding or managing an Exa or search API key. It is especially useful in agent pipelines that handle micropayments via x402/USDC on Base, want keyless operation, or need to avoid per-developer API subscription overhead. Prefer this over self-managed Exa API access when you want pay-per-call economics and zero credential management.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns an error
- numResults outside 1-5 range may be rejected or clamped
- x402 payment failure (insufficient USDC balance or wrong chain) blocks the request
- Upstream Exa service outage results in a 5xx error
- Network timeout if the upstream search takes too long
- Query returns zero results for very niche or malformed queries

## How this service works

Live web search (keyless — no Exa/API account needed, we pay upstream) and real-time cross-exchange crypto funding-rate data + arbitrage signals, paid per call in USDC on Base via x402. For AI agents that need live data without holding any API keys.

## Output

A JSON response containing up to the requested number of web search results (default 3, max 5), each including the page title, URL, and a content snippet drawn from the live web at query time.
