## 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 domain-osint-agentdiet-dev-hackernews-developer-ecosystem-real-time-3ee6f4e7
```

Example prompt: What's the current developer sentiment on HackerNews about Anthropic — are people excited, skeptical, or somewhere in between?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment from HackerNews — particularly for gauging how the technical community perceives a framework, startup, or AI model. Prefer this over general social media sentiment tools when the target audience is specifically developers or technical founders, and when HackerNews front-page velocity is a meaningful signal for your use case.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty 'query' parameter returns a validation error
- HackerNews API unavailability causes degraded or empty results
- Very niche or misspelled query terms may return no relevant discussions
- Payment failure via x402 returns HTTP 402 before processing begins
- Rate limiting may occur for high-frequency polling of the same query
