## 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-films-search-746f91ee
```

Example prompt: Can you find me free, legally downloadable public-domain feature films from the 1940s — ideally with CC0 or public domain rights status and direct download links?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to find films that are freely and legally downloadable, with explicit rights status information (public domain, CC0, CC-BY), sourced from trusted Internet Archive collections. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured metadata including download links and license verification, or when building applications that require legally clear media assets.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for overly specific or obscure queries
- Rights status may be listed as 'unverified' for some works, requiring user to confirm legality
- Query too broad may return large unfiltered results
- Network timeout or service unavailability returning an error
- Search terms in wrong language may yield no results

## Output
