## 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 trustpilot-category-search-6dc3b9a3
```

Example prompt: Search the Trustpilot category taxonomy for 'bank' and return any matching category IDs and names so I can use them to filter reviews.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve a human-readable business type keyword into a structured Trustpilot category ID, especially as a prerequisite step before fetching or filtering Trustpilot reviews by category. Prefer this over manual taxonomy browsing when automating business classification or review pipeline setup.

## Known failure modes

- No categories found for obscure or misspelled keywords — returns empty result set
- Query exceeds 200-character limit — returns validation error
- Payment not processed (x402 protocol failure) — returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or upstream Trustpilot API unavailability — returns 5xx error

## How this service works

Search Trustpilot categories by keyword to find category IDs at any level of the taxonomy.

## Output

A list of Trustpilot category objects matching the keyword, each including the category ID, name, and position within the taxonomy hierarchy, enabling downstream filtering or review queries by category.
