## 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 cravvol-headlines-api-e77f15c1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Get me 5 current headlines about electric vehicles — pay the per-request fee in USDC.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need current news headlines for a specific topic without API key registration or subscription overhead — ideal for AI agents that want pay-as-you-go access via x402/USDC micropayments. Best for lightweight headline retrieval rather than full article content.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'topic' field returns validation error
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC causes 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid count value (non-numeric) may cause request failure
- Topic yields no results if too obscure or misspelled
- Service may be unavailable if Vercel deployment is down
