Choose this endpoint when you need YouTube search result data at low cost per result without managing a YouTube Data API quota, especially for bulk or programmatic data collection pipelines that settle payments automatically via x402 on Base.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance or x402 payment failure — payment rejected, no results returned
- Invalid or missing 'limit' parameter — request may fail or return default results
- YouTube anti-scraping measures temporarily blocking results — empty or partial items array
- Rate limiting on the scraper backend — delayed or failed response
- Query returning zero results — items array is empty
