Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/humorWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a curated, ranked list of public-domain humor and comedy books with navigation routes for full-text access. Prefer it over a general full-text search when the user wants to browse or discover humor titles rather than search for a specific passage or topic. It is especially useful for building reading lists, populating catalogs, or exploring the humor genre in public-domain literature.
Side effects
- limit parameter exceeds 50 — likely returns an error or is clamped
- payment not processed (x402) — request blocked without valid USDC payment
- server unavailable — no results returned
