console.log(await res.json());

# 1) An unpaid request returns HTTP 402 with the exact payment terms:
curl -i -X POST "https://www.pontor.io/api/x402/vendor-search" \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"buyer_context": "dental clinic", "location_query": "Dallas, TX", "max_results": 5, "service_query": "commercial cleaning"}'

# 2) Paying + retrying requires an x402 client that can sign the USDC
#    authorization (curl alone cannot). See the JS / Python tabs below.
