## 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 jane-eyre-passage-retrieval-761308cd -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Jane Eyre for the most relevant passages about what Jane says about independence and self-respect — give me up to 8 results with their chapter citations.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need verbatim, citable text from Jane Eyre specifically — not a summary, paraphrase, or AI-generated answer. Ideal for literary research, essay writing, book club discussion, or any use case requiring direct quotation with provenance. Prefer over a general LLM when source fidelity and chapter-level citation accuracy matter. Not suitable for questions about other books (use sibling endpoints for Frankenstein, Dracula, Meditations, etc.).

## Known failure modes

- Question too vague or short may return low-relevance passages
- Limit exceeding 15 is capped or rejected
- Non-Jane-Eyre questions return passages with poor relevance scores
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the call if USDC balance is insufficient
- Empty question field returns a validation error

## How this service works

Ask a question about Jane Eyre and get back the most relevant passages from the book itself, with chapter and location citations. Retrieval only — full-text search, not a generated summary or answer. No license, no API key required.
