## 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-live-web-search-tech-news-10ac9e0d
```

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

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, current web results specifically from Google News or the HackerNews community without the overhead of scraping full pages or dealing with ad-laden HTML. It is ideal for tech-focused news grounding, developer community sentiment, and real-time event lookups where token efficiency matters. Prefer it over general web scrapers when you need clean, pre-pruned text output ready for LLM context windows.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or whitespace query returns a validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes fetch failure
- Overly broad queries may return noisy or low-relevance results
- Payment not fulfilled (HTTP 402) if x402 micropayment is not completed
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession
