## 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 tanship-payai-console-browser-search-x402-7ce750ff -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the web for 'best open-source LLMs in 2025' and bring back the top results — use Tanship's browser search, paying per query in USDC.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-use, no-subscription web search results via a browser automation backend, especially within an x402 micropayment-enabled agent stack on Base/USDC. Ideal for AI agents that need live web data without committing to a monthly search API plan.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC balance — 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed request body or missing required 'input' fields — 400 Bad Request
- Search query returns no results — empty results array
- Network timeout or browser automation failure — 5xx server error
- Unsupported bodyType value — validation error

## How this service works

Payment-gated AI and browser automation API using the x402 protocol. All /v1/* endpoints require USDC payment on Base (eip155:8453) via x402 v2 exact scheme.

## Output

Returns web search results fetched via a real browser session, likely including page titles, URLs, and text snippets for the queried terms. Exact response schema is not fully documented, but the agent receives structured search result data consumable for downstream processing.
