# x402.agentutility.ai Site Search (Decodo/GDELT)

> x402.agentutility.ai Site Search (Decodo/GDELT) is a paid API for AI agents from x402.agentutility.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Performs a Google-backed site-scoped search for a given domain, with automatic fallback to GDELT news results when the primary quota is exhausted.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 x402-agentutility-ai-site-search-decodo-gdelt-d029c9f2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the site docs.example.com for anything about authentication and rate limits — I want to find the relevant pages without browsing manually.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs to search within a specific domain or website rather than the open web, particularly for finding documentation, pages, or news published on a known hostname. It is preferable to general web search when the domain is already known and you want scoped results. Use it over manual scraping when you need keyword-matched page discovery rather than full-page content extraction. Note the fallback behavior: if the primary Google-backed quota is exhausted, only recent news content is retrievable.

## Known failure modes

- Primary Decodo quota exceeded — fallback to GDELT activates, returning only recent news-indexed pages (degraded mode)
- Target domain has no indexed pages — empty results array returned
- GDELT fallback also unavailable — service error or empty response
- Query too broad returns irrelevant results with correct domain scope
- Non-news pages not retrievable in fallback mode — content gap for static documentation sites

## How this service works

Search a specific public website or domain through Decodo Google results by sending a query with a site: filter. The response includes ranked titles, URLs, snippets, and domains. If primary search is quota-limited, a marked GDELT fallback can return recent news-indexed pages from that domain with recency capped at 168 hours. Use it as a site search API, domain search tool, website search endpoint, or scoped web search for agents.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the original query, a source field indicating whether results came from Decodo Google Search or the GDELT fallback, and an array of results each containing a title and domain. In fallback mode, results are limited to news-indexed pages published within the last 168 hours and are marked as degraded.
