```sh
zero fetch --capability blockrun-ai-vc-fund-search-ca1db219

Example prompt: Can you search for VC funds related to 'DeFi infrastructure' in the crypto space so I can see which firms are active investors in that area?

## When to prefer this

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns error
- Empty or vague query returns no results
- Payment not fulfilled (x402 payment required) returns 402 status
- Network timeout on slow queries
- Fund not found for niche or obscure query terms
