## 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 defi-yield-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-0bfe0db4
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'Base blockchain L2 adoption' and give me clean, ad-free results I can reason over.

## When to prefer this

Prefer this endpoint when an AI agent needs grounded, real-time news or tech community discussions without wasting tokens on ad-laden HTML. Ideal for LLM workflows that require up-to-date context on tech, crypto, or current events where token efficiency matters. Best suited over generic web scrapers when the target sources are Google News and HackerNews specifically, and when clean structured output is needed for downstream reasoning.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailable causes partial or empty results
- Overly broad queries may return low-relevance mixed results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC micropayment is not fulfilled
- Timeout if upstream news feeds are slow to respond
