Endpoint
POSThttps://github-audit.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment from HackerNews — particularly for evaluating frameworks, startups, or AI models through the lens of the technical community. Prefer this over general social sentiment tools when the target audience is developers and engineers, or when HackerNews front-page velocity is a meaningful signal for the use case.
Side effects
- Empty or whitespace query returns validation error
- Very obscure or niche topic with no HackerNews presence returns empty/low-signal results
- HackerNews API rate limits or downtime cause upstream fetch failures
- Ambiguous keyword (e.g. 'apple') may surface mixed unrelated discussions
- Payment not processed via x402 returns HTTP 402 before data is served
