Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://twin.unykorn.org/research/hn-front-page?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a real-time snapshot of what is currently trending on Hacker News without a keyword filter. Prefer it over the sibling HN search endpoint when you want the ranked front page rather than keyword-based search results. Ideal for briefings, monitoring, or seeding downstream analysis pipelines with fresh tech-community signals.
Side effects
- limit out of range (below 1 or above 50) returns a validation error
- Hacker News API upstream downtime may cause empty or error response
- no input provided defaults to 30 results — agents must not assume full 50 without specifying
