## 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 indo-news-api-indonesian-news-feed-ae0d1b53
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest Indonesian finance news headlines for me — I want anything published since yesterday, structured so I can see the title, source, and link for each article.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured Indonesian-language news headlines with metadata (source, date, link, snippet) filtered by topic category. It is purpose-built for Indonesian media and supports topic-based filtering across categories like nasional, finance, techno, sport, hiburan, sains, and kesehatan — making it far more relevant than a generic global news API when the user's focus is Indonesia specifically.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid topic value returns an error or empty results
- Invalid ISO 8601 timestamp format for 'since' parameter may cause a parse error
- No articles published after the given timestamp returns an empty items array
- Payment failure (402) if USDC payment on Base is not completed
- Service unavailable if upstream Google News RSS feed is unreachable

## How this service works

Indonesian headlines, keyword search and ranked briefings, plus reference data: USD/IDR and any FX pair, BTC/ETH/USDT in rupiah, BMKG earthquakes and public holidays. Structured JSON, paid per call in USDC on Base. No API key, no signup.

## Output

A JSON object containing a count of articles, the topic filter applied, and an array of news items — each with a title, source publication name, publication date (ISO 8601), article URL, and a text snippet summary.
