## 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 book-bot-app-2c7ef186 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search audiobookbay for audiobooks of 'Project Hail Mary' by Andy Weir and give me the available results so I can pick one to download.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover audiobooks on audiobookbay.lu and want a list of matching candidates with slugs. This is the first step in a two-call workflow: search here to get slugs, then call /api/audiobooks/details with a slug to get the full magnet URI. Prefer this over the EPUB/book search endpoints when the user specifically wants an audiobook (narrated/spoken) rather than an ebook.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for the given query — returns empty results list
- Query too vague or malformed — may return irrelevant results
- Upstream audiobookbay.lu unavailable — service may timeout or return error
- Rate limiting or payment failure — request rejected with payment-required error
- Network timeout reaching audiobookbay.lu scraping backend
