## 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 crypto-news-feed-202db500
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest 10 crypto news articles mentioning ETH from CoinDesk and Cointelegraph so I can understand what's been moving the market today.

## When to prefer this

Prefer this endpoint when you need aggregated, real-time crypto news across multiple major publications in a single call. It is ideal for explaining price movements, briefing traders, or monitoring a specific coin or project. Use it over manually querying individual publisher APIs when you want normalized, multi-source results with consistent schema including summaries and tags. Best for agents that need timely editorial context rather than raw price data.

## Known failure modes

- No articles match the specified keyword or coin symbol — returns empty results list
- Invalid source name provided — may return error or empty results
- Limit value out of 1–100 range — validation error returned
- Upstream news feeds temporarily unavailable — service may return stale or partial results
- Rate limit or payment failure — 402 or 429 response code

## How this service works

Latest crypto news from CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, Decrypt and The Block in one feed, newest first, with title, link, time, summary and tags; filter by keyword or coin (BTC, ETH, SOL, ETF, Base). Use to explain a price move, brief a trader or monitor a project.

## Output

Returns an ordered list of news articles (newest first), each containing the article title, a direct link, publication timestamp, a short summary, associated tags, and the source publication name. Supports up to 100 results per call and can be filtered by keyword or coin symbol and by specific source outlet.
