```

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time web and tech news grounding with minimal token overhead — especially suited for AI agents that need current information without wading through ads, trackers, or HTML bloat. Prefer it over generic scraping when you want pre-cleaned, structured news results from Google News and HackerNews in a single call at low cost ($0.01/call).

## Known failure modes

- Empty or vague query returns no results or irrelevant noise
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes fetch failure
- Very niche queries may return few or no results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC micropayment is not authorized
- Malformed query string may result in error response
