## 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 macaroon-network-grant-tender-opportunity-search-d9c96bd8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for active UK and EU public procurement tenders in IT consultancy and also check Grants.gov for any US federal grants related to digital infrastructure — I need the titles, deadlines, estimated values, and links to the original notices.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to discover live public procurement tenders or government grant opportunities spanning UK, EU, and US federal sources in a single call. It is ideal for bid/grant pipeline automation, opportunity monitoring, and competitive intelligence. Prefer this over individual platform searches when cross-jurisdictional coverage is needed. Not suitable if you need full tender documents, application forms, or eligibility criteria — this returns metadata and source links only.

## Known failure modes

- No matching opportunities found for the given query — returns empty results
- Grants.gov live query timeout if the platform is temporarily unavailable
- Overly broad keywords return too many results with limited utility — recommend narrowing by region or category
- Source platform downtime may prevent live retrieval from one or more of the four sources
- Query terms with no procurement-domain relevance return zero results

## How this service works

Search live UK/EU public procurement tenders and US federal grant opportunities in one call: UK Contracts Finder, UK Find a Tender Service, EU TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), and Grants.gov. Returns source-linked metadata only -- title, buyer/funder, deadline, value, region, category codes, and a link to the original notice -- never full tender documents, specifications, or application forms. Grants.gov is queried live per-request and is never bulk-cached or resold as a stored dataset.

## Output

Returns structured metadata for matching tender or grant notices: title, buyer or funder name, deadline, estimated contract or award value, region, category codes, and a direct source link to the original notice on the originating platform (Contracts Finder, FTS, TED, or Grants.gov). Does not return full tender documents, specifications, or application forms.
