How this service works
15-App Autonomous Business-to-Agent (B2A) API Hub & MCP Suite. Supports Web Distillation, On-Chain Risk, DEX Token Intelligence, B2B Lead Enrichment, Domain OSINT, Email Verification, SEC Filings, GitHub Audits, Prompt Firewall, and native HTTP 402 (x402 Base USDC).
Output
Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing distilled HN content, a 'status' field (e.g. 'ok'), and an 'roi_proof' object showing the compression_ratio_pct (e.g. 91.4%), indicating how much the raw content was compressed into the agent-ready output.
Example use cases

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://defi-yield.agentdiet.dev/v1/hn-pulse?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, pre-compressed, agent-optimized digest of Hacker News trends rather than raw RSS or scraping HN directly. Ideal for agents that need to monitor tech community pulse on a per-call, pay-as-you-go basis (at $0.01 USDC per call via x402). Prefer this over general web scraping when you specifically want HN content with built-in distillation and compression metrics.
Side effects
- Missing or invalid 'input' object returns validation error
- Unsupported HTTP method (not GET or POST) causes schema rejection
- Downstream HN data unavailability may return empty data payload
- Payment failure via x402/USDC results in HTTP 402 and no content returned
- Query param 'query' malformed or missing may return generic/unfiltered results
