## 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 agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-grounding-f9481510
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me clean, ad-free results.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to ground its response with real-time, live news or developer community discussions without dealing with ad-bloated HTML or heavy scraping overhead. It is especially suited for tech and developer-focused queries where HackerNews signal is valuable, and when token efficiency matters (results are pre-pruned). Prefer it over general web scrapers when you want clean, structured news data at low cost ($0.01/call) with x402 micropayment support.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing query string returns a validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability may return partial or empty results
- Very niche queries may return zero matching articles
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if x402 payment is not properly handled
- Extremely short queries may return noisy, unfocused results
