## 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 hn-pulse-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-f4af1f44
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about open-source LLM fine-tuning and give me a clean summary of what's trending right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when your agent needs live, real-time web and tech news grounding with minimal token overhead — especially when results will be fed directly into an LLM context window and ad-free, clean output is critical. Prefer it over general-purpose web scrapers when the focus is technology, developer, or startup news and HackerNews community signal is valuable.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing query parameter returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia API unavailable causes fetch failure
- Query returns zero results for very niche or misspelled terms
- Payment failure via x402 prevents access
- Rate limiting if too many concurrent requests are made
