Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need keyless, pay-per-call web search results (SERP) without setting up an API key or subscription. It is ideal for agents needing occasional web lookups billed via the x402 micropayment protocol at $0.03 USDC per call, returning up to 25 ranked results with titles, URLs, and snippets.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns a validation error
- num_results exceeds cap of 25 causing a rejection or truncation
- Payment not settled via x402 protocol results in 402 Payment Required response
- Query string is empty or malformed causing a bad request error
- Upstream search provider unavailable causes a 500 or timeout error

## How this service works

Web search results (SERP). Keyless web search returning ranked title, URL, and snippet for a query — with locale/region targeting, freshness filters (past day, week, month, year), pagination, a news mode that adds publish date and source, and selectable backend engine (auto rotation, or pin Brave, Yahoo, or Yandex).

## Output

A ranked list of up to 25 web search results, each containing a title, URL, and text snippet relevant to the query.
