## 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 lilambd-rising-today-trending-data-feed-35053d89
```

Example prompt: What GitHub repos are rising today in the AI safety theme — give me up to 20 results?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pre-aggregated feed of what is rising or trending today across open source ecosystems (npm/PyPI downloads, Hugging Face, GitHub) or global news events (GDELT), especially when you want to filter by theme. Prefer it over general web search when you need structured, attributable trend data ready for downstream analysis rather than raw search results.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported table enum value returns an error or empty result
- Theme string with no matching records returns data:[] and count:0
- Limit parameter passed as non-integer string may cause unexpected truncation
- Payment not completed (x402) results in a 402 Payment Required response blocking data access
- API unavailability returns a server error with no data

## How this service works

A crossing for play, feeling, language, science and computation — creating states that do not have names yet.

## Output

A JSON object containing a 'data' array of trending records from the requested table (package_downloads, hf_trending, github_new_repos, or gdelt_events), a 'count' integer indicating the number of returned records, and an 'attribution' string crediting the data source license.
