## 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 stablememes-search-fcc1aa5c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search StableMemes for the 'Drake Hotline Bling' meme template — I need its template ID so I can caption it.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search or look up meme templates by ID from the Imgflip database before captioning or generating a meme. Prefer this over direct meme generation when you need to discover the correct template_id first, or when browsing available meme formats.

## Known failure modes

- Template ID not found — returns empty or error if the template_id does not match any known meme
- Missing required template_id field — returns validation error
- Payment failure — x402 payment of $0.01 USDC not processed, request rejected
- Rate limiting — too many requests in a short period
- Imgflip API unavailability — upstream provider outage causes failure

## How this service works

Generate memes via the Imgflip API. Caption templates, search 1M+, auto-caption, and AI memes.

## Output

Returns meme template search results from the Imgflip database, including template IDs, names, and metadata for matching meme formats that can be used for captioning or generation.
