## 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-content-hub-image-search-0d0b2205 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you find me some images of the Northern Lights over Iceland? Just search for 'Northern Lights Iceland' and show me what comes up.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to retrieve real web images for a keyword or concept and are willing to pay a small per-call USDC fee via the x402 protocol. Prefer this over free alternatives when operating in a crypto-native agent stack already using Base/USDC payments.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty query string returns validation error
- Payment not sent or insufficient USDC returns 402 Payment Required
- Query returns no results for very obscure or filtered terms
- Upstream image search provider unavailable causes 5xx error
- Malformed request body returns 400 Bad Request
