Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/f1001When to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to browse or list public-domain books specifically about Canadian biography, political figures, commerce leaders, or pioneers. It is distinct from the full-text search endpoint (which searches across the entire corpus) and from other curated shelves (e.g. Harvard Classics, Nobel Prize literature). Use this when the user wants a ranked list of titles in the Canadian Biography category, not when they want to search for specific passages or topics across all books.
Side effects
- Limit parameter exceeds 50 — server may cap or return an error
- Payment not processed — x402 payment required before results are returned
- Empty or malformed request body — defaults may apply or request may fail
- Network timeout for large limit values
