Endpoint
POSThttps://domain-osint.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — the canonical source for early-adopter tech opinions. Prefer it over generic social media sentiment tools when your target audience is software engineers, founders, or technical decision-makers. It is especially valuable for evaluating framework adoption health, startup reputation signals, or AI model reception among practitioners before making technology or investment decisions.
Side effects
- Empty or overly generic query returns low-signal or no results
- Very niche or brand-new topics with zero HackerNews activity return empty thread sets
- HackerNews Algolia API downtime causes upstream fetch failures
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if x402 payment is not properly handled
- Ambiguous keyword matches multiple unrelated topics, diluting sentiment accuracy
