## 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 mcp-compiler-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-b447d0a7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussion about 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me a clean summary with citations — no ads or fluff.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, token-efficient news grounding without processing ad-laden HTML — especially for tech, startup, and developer topics where HackerNews community signal matters. Prefer it over general web scrapers when you want clean, structured output ready for LLM consumption, and over static knowledge bases when freshness is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailable causing partial or failed results
- Query too broad returns low-relevance results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if micropayment not processed
- Timeout if upstream feeds are slow to respond
