How this service works
Queries live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity, and developer sentiment on any framework, startup, or AI model. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev/v1/dev-sentiment)
Output
Returns an analysis of live HackerNews discussions related to the queried topic, including developer sentiment signals, front-page velocity metrics, and aggregated community opinion derived from current discussions and post engagement.
Example use cases
Pre-launch startup reputation check
“Can you check what developers on HackerNews are saying about Notion right now — is the sentiment mostly positive, and is there any significant buzz or criticism I should know about?”
AI model community reception analysis
“I'm evaluating whether to build on Mistral or Llama — can you pull the live HackerNews developer sentiment for both so I can see which one the community is more excited about?”
Competitor framework trending monitor
“How is Next.js tracking on HackerNews right now compared to a week ago — what's the front-page velocity and is developer sentiment going up or down?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev/v1/dev-sentiment?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, live developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews discussions rather than social media or general web sentiment. It is ideal for tracking how the tech community reacts to frameworks, AI models, startups, and libraries at the moment of query, especially for developer-focused products where HackerNews is the primary opinion-forming forum.
Side effects
- Empty or whitespace query string returns a validation error
- Very niche or obscure topic keywords may return sparse or no HackerNews data
- Payment failure (HTTP 402) if x402 USDC micropayment is not completed
- Timeout if HackerNews API is slow or rate-limiting at query time
- Generic or overly broad queries may yield low-signal sentiment results
