## 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 mesh-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-grounding-5b69636f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about OpenAI's new model releases and give me clean, ad-free results I can actually read.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, real-time web grounding from authoritative tech news sources (Google News, HackerNews) without paying the token cost of raw HTML or ad-laden scrapes. It is especially well-suited for agentic pipelines where token efficiency matters and where tech and startup news coverage is the target domain. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when clean, structured output is needed quickly and cheaply at $0.01 per call.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns validation error
- Query returns no results if topic is too obscure or niche
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia outage causes failure
- Payment not completed via x402 results in 402 response blocking execution
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion on upstream sources may yield partial results

## How this service works

Executes live Google News RSS + HackerNews Algolia search queries and returns clean, token-pruned results with zero ad bloat. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://mesh.agentdiet.dev/v1/serp-scraper)

## Output

A structured, token-pruned list of clean search results drawn from Google News RSS and HackerNews Algolia, including article titles, sources, publication timestamps, and links — with all advertising, tracking, and HTML bloat stripped out to minimize token usage for downstream LLM consumption.
