## 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-5be0210b
```

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

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time news and tech article grounding with token efficiency — especially when your agent context window is constrained and you need clean results free of ads and HTML noise. Ideal for tech, AI, and crypto topics where HackerNews coverage is valuable. Prefer over generic web scrapers when you specifically need news freshness and a low per-call cost of $0.01.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty query parameter returns a 400 error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes empty or degraded results
- Payment not processed (HTTP 402) if x402 micropayment is not included
- Very niche queries may return zero results
- Rate limiting may occur under high request volume
