How this service works
Queries live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity, and developer sentiment on any framework, startup, or AI model. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://cve-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/dev-sentiment)
Output
Returns structured developer sentiment analysis including aggregated HackerNews discussion threads, front-page velocity metrics, community tone (positive/negative/mixed), trending signals, and relevant post summaries for the queried technology or topic.
Example use cases
AI model launch reaction tracker
“Pull the current HackerNews sentiment on 'Gemini 2.0' — I want to know how developers are reacting to the launch, what threads are active, and whether the front-page velocity is trending up or down.”
Startup due diligence developer check
“Before I invest, can you check what the HackerNews community is saying about Perplexity AI right now? I want to see sentiment, any criticism, and how fast their mentions are moving.”
Framework adoption pulse for tech stack decision
“We're deciding between Htmx and Alpine.js for our next project — can you give me the live HackerNews sentiment and developer discussion pulse for both so I can see which one the community is more bullish on?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://cve-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/dev-sentiment?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment from HackerNews rather than broad social media sentiment. Ideal for evaluating technology adoption, startup reputation among engineers, framework controversy, or AI model reception in the technical community. Prefer over general web search when the target audience is specifically developers or technical founders.
Side effects
- Empty or overly generic query returns low-signal results
- HackerNews API rate limiting may delay or degrade live results
- Very niche or obscure topics with no HN activity return minimal data
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 with payment instructions
- Ambiguous keyword (e.g. 'apple') may conflate unrelated topics
