How this service works
Queries live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity, and developer sentiment on any framework, startup, or AI model. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-trends)
Output
Returns live HackerNews discussion data for the queried topic, including front-page velocity (how fast stories are appearing), developer sentiment signals (positive/negative/mixed tone), and relevant discussion threads or story references tied to the query.
Example use cases
AI model launch sentiment check
“Can you pull the live HackerNews pulse on 'Llama 3' right now? I want to know how fast it's trending on the front page and whether the developer reaction is positive or critical.”
Startup reputation monitoring
“Check HackerNews for any discussions about 'Supabase' — I need to know the current developer sentiment and whether there's any negative buzz I should be aware of before we pitch investors.”
Framework adoption signal
“What is the HackerNews community currently saying about 'htmx'? I want to see the discussion velocity and overall sentiment to gauge whether it's gaining real traction among developers.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — the primary forum for early-adopter engineers, founders, and AI researchers. It is ideal for tracking launch reactions, framework adoption signals, startup reputation, and AI model reception among technical audiences, rather than general social media sentiment.
Side effects
- Empty or overly broad query returns low-signal or irrelevant results
- Very niche or obscure topics may return no active HackerNews discussions
- Rate limits or HackerNews API downtime may cause delayed or empty responses
- Sentiment analysis may be imprecise for highly technical or sarcastic developer discourse
