Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/psWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a curated, ranked list of public-domain American literature (PS classification) titles, especially when you want to browse or discover books in that category without a specific search query. Prefer this over the full-text search endpoint when you want to enumerate books by shelf rather than search by keyword or passage. No API key is required — only a small per-call USDC micropayment.
Side effects
- Limit exceeds maximum of 50 — clamp to 50 or return error
- Payment not processed — x402 payment required before response is served
- No books returned if shelf index is temporarily unavailable
- Drill-down routes may be unreachable if downstream full-text endpoints are down
