## 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-651c5015
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'LLM inference cost reductions in 2025' and give me clean, ad-free results I can actually use.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, token-efficient news and tech article grounding without ads or markup noise, especially when both mainstream news (Google News) and developer/tech community sentiment (HackerNews) are relevant. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when token budget is tight and cleanliness of output matters. Ideal for agent workflows requiring live current-events context at low per-call cost ($0.01).

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing 'query' parameter returns a 400 validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes partial or failed results
- Payment not fulfilled via x402 protocol returns HTTP 402 Payment Required
- Extremely niche or obscure queries may return zero results
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion may return 429 Too Many Requests
