Endpoint
POSThttps://domain-osint.agentdiet.dev/v1/hn-pulse?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — the primary hub for technical founders, engineers, and early adopters. Prefer this over generic social sentiment APIs when the audience is developers or the topic is a framework, AI model, or dev-focused startup. Best used for fast-moving signals like new product launches, framework debates, or AI model releases where HN velocity is a leading indicator of adoption.
Side effects
- Empty or too-broad query returns low-signal results with minimal discussion data
- HackerNews rate limits or API downtime may cause fetch failures
- Very niche or misspelled topic names return zero matches
- Payment not processed (HTTP 402) if x402 USDC micropayment fails
- Upstream HackerNews data latency may cause stale results during high-traffic periods
