Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic YouTube video search without managing your own YouTube Data API keys or quota, and you want a pay-per-request model via USDC. Useful for agents that occasionally need to surface YouTube content without committing to a subscription or API setup.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or vague query may return irrelevant results
- YouTube API quota limits may cause failures during high traffic
- Network timeout if YouTube is slow to respond
- Query in unsupported language may yield no results
- Malformed request body returns an error response
