## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search and filter live global news articles by keyword, country, language, or category via a pay-per-call x402 micropayment model, and you want access to Mediastack's news aggregation without managing your own API key. Prefer it over direct Mediastack calls when operating in an agent environment that supports x402 payments.

## Known failure modes

- Keywords that are too broad may return irrelevant articles
- Exceeding the result limit silently caps results
