## 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-cd70b6f4
```

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 fact-check my article.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, up-to-date web information without parsing raw HTML or dealing with ad-heavy pages. It is preferable to static knowledge bases when recency matters (breaking news, current tech trends, fact-checking), and superior to raw RSS scraping when token efficiency is important. Best suited for agents that need fast, clean, structured news grounding rather than deep full-page content extraction.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or whitespace query returns a validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes degraded or empty results
- Overly broad queries may return noisy or low-relevance results
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the request before search is executed
- Rate limiting may occur under high-frequency automated usage
