Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/dsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to browse or discover public-domain books specifically within the DS Library of Congress subject classification — covering Asian history, Southeast Asian literature, Tibetan travel accounts, and Mughal-era memoirs. Prefer this over full-text search when you want a curated, ranked overview of available titles rather than passage-level retrieval.
Side effects
- Exceeding the max limit of 50 returns an error or truncated list
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Empty result if the shelf index is temporarily unavailable
- Malformed limit parameter (non-integer or negative) may return default or error
