## 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-with-ai-analysis-267b8178 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull up to 8 Solana news articles from the past day and give me an AI read on the overall mood and key themes in the coverage.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need both raw news links and an AI-curated read (mood, summary, themes) in a single call, without managing a news API subscription or API key — ideal for agents that need contextual crypto news awareness on-demand with per-call x402 micropayment billing at $0.004 USDC.

## Known failure modes

- No articles found for an obscure or misspelled coin/topic query
- Freshness window too narrow (e.g. 'hour') with no recent articles returns empty set
- Query exceeds 120-character limit causing validation error
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance for x402 micropayment
- Upstream news source unavailable causing partial or empty results
