## 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 google-patents-search-via-x402-orth-sh-471c5627 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Google Patents for prior art on 'solid-state battery technology', return 10 results in English for the US, and give me the patent numbers, inventors, assignees, and abstracts.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured patent data from Google Patents for IP research, prior art searches, or technology landscape analysis. Prefer it over generic web search endpoints when the user explicitly needs patent numbers, inventors, assignees, or filing/publication dates from the patent registry.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if query is too narrow or no matching patents exist
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 USDC payment of $0.002 is not processed
- Invalid country or language code returns an error or defaults
- Pagination beyond available results returns empty page
