## 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

Example prompt: Can you search for podcasts about personal finance on iTunes and give me the show name, artist, genre, RSS feed, and episode count for the top results?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured podcast metadata — especially the RSS feed URL and episode count — sourced from the iTunes catalog. Prefer it over generic web search when you need machine-readable podcast data for aggregation, feed subscription, or discovery pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if no podcasts match the search term
- Missing or null fields if iTunes metadata is incomplete for a show
- HTTP 402 if payment is not provided or fails
- Slow response if the iTunes API is under load
- Unexpected JSON structure if upstream iTunes API changes its response format
