## How to call it through Zero

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when your AI agent needs live web search results without managing or storing any upstream API keys, and when you want to pay per query in USDC micropayments via x402 on Base. It's ideal for autonomous agent pipelines that require real-time information retrieval with minimal credential overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns a 400 error
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance causes a 402 response blocking the request
- numResults out of range (outside 1-5) may be rejected or clamped
- Upstream search provider (Exa) outage causes 502/503 responses
- Tailscale network or self-hosted server downtime makes the endpoint unreachable

## 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

Returns a JSON array of web search results (up to 5), each containing the page title, URL, and a text snippet summarizing the content, sourced in real time from the web.
