## 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-search-api-via-fetcher-sh-7148bb12
```

Example prompt: Search Google for 'best open source LLM frameworks 2024' and give me the top results as structured data — titles, URLs, and snippets.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic Google search results without setting up a Google Cloud account, obtaining OAuth credentials, or committing to a subscription. It is ideal for ad-hoc agent workflows, low-volume lookups, or pay-as-you-go automation where the x402 micropayment model (USDC on Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, or Solana) fits. Prefer it over the official Google Custom Search API when you want zero onboarding friction and per-call billing at $0.005.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed query parameter returns an error response
- Insufficient USDC balance or failed x402 payment results in a 402 Payment Required error
- Rate limiting or Google-side blocking may return empty or degraded results
- Network timeout if Google's backend is slow to respond
- Query returning no results yields an empty results array
