## 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 free-books-drama-bf5340ae
```

Example prompt: Can you find me free public-domain drama books I can download — ideally something by Oscar Wilde or George Bernard Shaw — and give me direct epub download links?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a curated, pre-filtered list of public-domain drama/theatre books with ready-to-use download links, re-verified daily, rather than scraping Project Gutenberg or Internet Archive directly. Ideal for agents that need to surface free readable books in the drama genre quickly without managing library API pagination themselves.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if keyword filter is too restrictive or misspelled
- Pagination beyond available results returns empty list
- Occasional dead download links if a source has moved since last daily re-verification
- Rate or payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.01 per call fee

## How this service works

Add words to narrow by title or author. Re-verified daily. $0.01 per page of 20.

## Output

A paginated list of up to 20 public-domain drama books per call, each including title, author(s), relevance and popularity ranking, and direct download links in epub, txt, and/or html formats. Results are sourced from Project Gutenberg (214+ titles) and Internet Archive and are re-verified daily.
