## 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 cn-data-chinese-news-feed-c230de90
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest 20 Chinese tech and business news headlines for me — I need them as structured data with summaries, sources, and publish times?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable Chinese news data without an API key or signup — especially when Chinese-language web pages need to be returned as clean JSON. Ideal for agents building China market intelligence pipelines, monitoring Chinese tech media, or aggregating news from sources like IT之家 that don't offer their own APIs. The x402 micropayment model at $0.02/call makes it cost-effective for on-demand or low-frequency polling.

## Known failure modes

- HTTP 402 returned on first call — agent must pay $0.02 USDC on Base and retry
- limit parameter out of range (must be 1-50) may return an error or be clamped
- partial:true in response indicates some sources failed to load but others succeeded
- Network timeout or upstream Chinese news source unavailability causing partial or empty results
- Invalid query parameters return error response

## How this service works

Chinese market and China-focused public data over the x402 protocol. No API key and no signup: call any endpoint, receive HTTP 402 with payment terms, pay the listed amount in USDC on Base and retry. Every response is JSON. Some Chinese-language sources are published only as web pages — these endpoints return them as clean, machine-readable JSON.

## Output

A JSON object with ok:true and a data block containing an array of news items (each with URL, title, source ID, source display name, summary, category, and publishedAt timestamp), plus total count, a failed list, and a partial flag indicating whether all sources responded.
