## 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 x402node-maps-search-8cd229be -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you search Maps for 'Italian restaurants in Brooklyn' and give me a list of results with their names and websites?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs to find businesses or places by keyword without managing API keys or accounts, and when paying $0.02 USDC per call on Base is acceptable. Prefer this over traditional Maps APIs when frictionless, pay-per-use access is needed for AI agent workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — returns 402 Payment Required
- Empty or missing keyword field — may return empty results or validation error
- Keyword too vague or misspelled — returns low-relevance or no results
- Network or upstream maps data unavailability — returns 5xx error
- Rate limiting if too many requests sent rapidly — returns 429
