Example prompt: Find me ethically sourced, cruelty-free, and plastic-free laundry detergent options — filter for vegan and small-business brands, and show me where I can buy them along with any fair trade or sustainability certifications.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a user explicitly wants to shop or find products according to ethical, sustainability, or values-based criteria (vegan, cruelty-free, fair trade, union-made, plastic-free, small-business). This is distinct from generic product search or price comparison — it specializes in filtering by ethical certifications and personal values. Prefer over general product finders when ethics and sourcing are the primary decision drivers.

## Known failure modes

- No products found matching the combination of values filters — returns empty results or a suggestion to relax filters
- Unsupported product category — may return a generic error or empty set
- Conflicting filters (e.g., union-made + handmade artisan) that yield no results
- External retailer links may be outdated or unavailable
- Payment of 0.1 USDC not completed — returns 402 Payment Required
