How this service works
Queries live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity, and developer sentiment on any framework, startup, or AI model. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://mcp-compiler.agentdiet.dev/v1/tech-trends)
Output
Returns real-time developer sentiment analysis derived from live HackerNews discussions, including front-page velocity indicators, sentiment signals (positive/negative/mixed), and relevant discussion thread data for the queried technology, startup, or AI model.
Example use cases
AI model launch reception check
“Check HackerNews right now and tell me how developers are reacting to the new Claude 4 release — is the sentiment positive, negative, or mixed, and how fast is it moving on the front page?”
Competitor startup buzz monitoring
“What are developers on HackerNews saying about Linear right now? Is there any notable discussion or sentiment I should know about as a competing product team?”
Framework adoption signal for investment
“I'm evaluating whether to invest in companies building on Svelte — can you pull live HackerNews sentiment and front-page velocity for Svelte so I can gauge current developer enthusiasm?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://mcp-compiler.agentdiet.dev/v1/tech-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — the primary forum for technical founders, engineers, and AI practitioners. Prefer this over generic social listening tools when the audience is developers and tech insiders, and when you need front-page velocity as a signal of organic interest rather than just mention volume.
Side effects
- Empty or too-generic query returns low-signal results
- HackerNews API downtime causes fetch failures
- Very niche or misspelled keywords return no matching discussions
- Rate limiting if called too frequently without payment
- Stale cache may occasionally return slightly delayed sentiment data
