## 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 peopleperhour-freelance-job-scraper-x402-26a0fc5b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search PeoplePerHour for freelance jobs matching 'React developer' and 'Next.js', sorted by relevance, and return up to 30 results per keyword so I can see what budgets clients are posting.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable freelance job data from PeoplePerHour specifically — including titles, budgets, and descriptions — without building your own scraper. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when you want pay-per-successful-call pricing and don't want to pay for failed or empty runs. Best suited for agents doing market research, lead generation, or competitive analysis on the PeoplePerHour platform.

## Known failure modes

- No jobs found for the given query returns empty items array (not charged)
- Invalid sort enum value causes request rejection
- PeoplePerHour site changes break scraper and return empty results (not charged)
- Network timeouts from the upstream site may cause failures
- Rate limiting or blocking by PeoplePerHour may result in empty responses
