## 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-security-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-aac19d14
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me clean, ad-free results I can use to ground my response.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, real-time web or tech news grounding without token waste from ads or boilerplate. It is especially suited for developer-focused or technology topics where HackerNews community signals matter. Prefer it over generic scrapers when clean, structured, token-efficient output is critical for downstream LLM consumption, and over static knowledge bases when freshness is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if query is too narrow or obscure
- Rate limiting or HTTP 402 payment required if micropayment not provided
- Upstream Google News or HackerNews Algolia API unavailability causing no results
- Query string missing or empty returns validation error
- Stale results if upstream feeds are temporarily delayed
