## 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-f4fdf557 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search live news and HackerNews right now for 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me a clean summary of the top results — no ads, just the actual headlines and links.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, clean news or tech-community signal for grounding — especially when the content must be token-efficient and ad-free. It is ideal for tech and developer-focused searches where HackerNews sentiment is valuable alongside mainstream news, and when you want both Google News and HackerNews covered in a single call rather than hitting each source separately.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns a 400 validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes fetch failures
- Very niche or misspelled queries may return zero results
- Payment not processed (x402) blocks execution
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion may return 429 errors
