## How to call it through Zero

```

Example prompt: Look up the definition of 'cornucopia' from Scribed's glossary — it's a paid essay publication focused on freedom and truth, and charges a penny per lookup.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need the Scribed editorial definition of 'cornucopia' — particularly for contexts involving essays on freedom, truth, or societal structures. It is appropriate for agents that support x402 micropayment flows and need machine-readable glossary content from a curated human-authored publication rather than a general dictionary or encyclopedia API.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient — glossary content withheld (HTTP 402 returned before definition is delivered)
- Invalid or unrecognized properties parameter — may return empty or malformed response
- Term not found in glossary — response may return empty gloss or error
- Network timeout on payment confirmation — transaction may not complete
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in rapid succession
