## 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 openwebninja-ai-overviews-search-c2e1518b
```

Example prompt: Search Google for 'best running shoes for flat feet' in the US in English and tell me whether an AI Overview appeared in the search results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to determine programmatically whether a specific Google search query triggers an AI Overview (AI-generated summary box). Ideal for SEO professionals, marketers, and researchers tracking which keywords are dominated by Google's generative AI feature, or for monitoring shifts in SERP features over time.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns validation error
- Invalid or unsupported 'gl' or 'hl' locale codes may return unexpected results
- Google may not return AI Overviews for queries that are too ambiguous or low-volume
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) results in 402 Payment Required
- Network timeouts from upstream Google search requests
