## 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 email-verify-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-dd7b9b6f
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussion about OpenAI's new model releases and give me clean, ad-free results I can use as citations.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, real-time grounding from tech news and developer community sources (Google News + HackerNews) with minimal token overhead. It is ideal for citation-gathering, claim grounding, and trend monitoring tasks where ad-free, structured output is required. Prefer it over generic search APIs when token efficiency and developer/tech news relevance are priorities.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty query parameter returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes partial or empty results
- Very niche or misspelled query returns zero results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC micropayment is not completed
- Extremely long queries may be truncated or rejected
