## 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 alpha-stream-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-23922b99
```

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

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time news and tech community discussion results with minimal token overhead — especially when grounding AI responses with current events, monitoring what HackerNews is discussing, or retrieving tech news without the noise of ads and boilerplate HTML. Prefer it over general web scrapers when token efficiency matters and the target domains are news and tech forums.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty query string returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes partial or failed results
- Payment not completed via x402 results in HTTP 402 response
- Very niche queries may return few or zero results
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion on upstream news APIs may degrade results
