## 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 cargurus-listing-scraper-x402-b8e3f643 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search CarGurus for used Honda Civics within 30 miles of 10001, sorted by price ascending, and return up to 50 listings.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, normalized vehicle listing data from CarGurus specifically — including make, model, year, trim, and body type — and want pay-per-call pricing with no charge for failed or empty runs. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when you need CarGurus-specific fields and filtering (zip, radius, sort, make/model path) without building your own scraping infrastructure.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported zip code format returns an error or empty result
- CarGurus site structure changes may break scraping and return empty results
- Overly restrictive make/model/trim paths may yield zero listings
- Network or rate-limiting issues from CarGurus may cause partial or failed runs
- Supplying an invalid or expired startUrl may return no results

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of listings found and an array of vehicle records, each containing listing ID, make, model, year, trim, title, body type, and country. Only non-empty successful runs are charged.
