Example use cases

Sourcing Fox's Book of Martyrs for a history project
“I need to confirm that Fox's Book of Martyrs is available in the public domain and get a link to its full text — can you check the BR shelf and return the relevant entry?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/brWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you specifically want to browse or enumerate the curated BR (religion/Christianity) shelf of 229 public-domain books on ForgeMesh Library — particularly for theological, patristic, or Reformation-era texts. Prefer a full-text search endpoint instead if you need to find specific passages or are unsure which shelf the content belongs to.
Side effects
- Limit parameter exceeds 50 — service may reject or cap the response
- Payment not processed (x402 protocol failure) — endpoint returns 402 with payment details
- Shelf temporarily unavailable — returns an error response with no book list
- Malformed request body — service returns a validation error
