Endpoint
POSThttps://market.datapackvibe.com/x402/demand-next-community-service-incidents-builders?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need community-curated, crowd-validated discussions about real service incidents and postmortems from Hacker News specifically — ideal for SRE research, benchmarking incident culture, or tracking how the tech community reacted to a specific outage. Prefer this over general web search when you want HN's scoring and author metadata alongside links.
Side effects
- No matching stories found for a very narrow or obscure query — returns empty results
- Max results exceeding 10 will be clamped or rejected by schema validation
- Query too broad may return tangentially related HN stories not specifically about incidents
- Service outages on the underlying HN search index may produce stale or no results
