## 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-e22c0475
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about the Anthropic Claude model releases and give me clean, ad-free results I can use to fact-check my summary.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, current news or tech community coverage (especially HackerNews discussions) and want results that are pre-cleaned of ads and token waste — ideal for fact-checking, grounding AI-generated content, or retrieving recent tech developments without paying for a full search API subscription. Prefer this over static knowledge bases when recency matters, and over raw RSS scrapers when token efficiency matters.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty query parameter returns a validation error
- Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia upstream outage causes empty or degraded results
- Query too broad returns generic or low-relevance results
- Payment not completed via x402 returns HTTP 402 before results are served
- Rate limiting may trigger if the endpoint is called in rapid succession
