## 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-in-latin-0c506672
```

Example prompt: Can you find me the most popular free Latin books available to download — ideally ones I can get as epub or txt files?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need free, publicly available Latin-language texts with direct download links, especially when you want results ranked by popularity or need to search within Latin titles, authors, and subjects. Prefer this over generic book search APIs when Latin-language filtering and public-domain status are required.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for overly narrow search terms
- Rate limiting or payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient
- Empty result set for very obscure queries not covered by source catalogues
- Stale data if re-verification pipeline has a delay
