Output
Returns a JSON object with distilled Hacker News story data under a 'data' key, a status field ('ok'), and an roi_proof object containing a compression_ratio_pct (e.g. 91.4%) indicating how much the raw content was compressed into the signal delivered.

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://token-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/hn-pulse?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, pre-distilled, high-compression snapshot of Hacker News activity — especially when token budget matters and you want signal not raw HTML. It's ideal for agents monitoring tech trends, startup news, or developer community sentiment without scraping HN directly. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when you want structured, compressed output with ROI proof and pay-per-use micropayment pricing.
Side effects
- Payment not received via x402 — returns HTTP 402 requiring USDC micropayment
- Invalid query parameter type — returns schema validation error
- HN upstream unavailable — may return empty data or error status
- Rate limit exceeded — returns throttle or error response
- Malformed input object missing required 'type' or 'method' fields — returns 400
