## 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 manylives-crypto-news-feed-2611843d
```

Example prompt: Fetch me the latest crypto news for BTC from the past 6 hours — show me up to 10 stories with their sentiment scores so I can see if market mood is bullish or bearish right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI trading agent needs fast, sentiment-tagged crypto news headlines with multi-source aggregation and coin-level filtering, especially within an agentic x402 micropayment workflow on Base. Prefer it over generic news APIs when you need structured sentiment scores alongside headlines without an account or subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid coin symbol returns empty stories array
- hours parameter outside 1–48 range may return error or be clamped
- limit parameter outside 1–50 range may be rejected
- Payment not sent or insufficient USDC causes 402 response
- No news available for the requested coin/window returns count:0
