## 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 onchain-risk-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-28fb222f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about WebAssembly performance improvements and give me clean, ad-free results I can use as citations?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, grounded citations from Google News or HackerNews without the token overhead of raw HTML or ad-laden pages. It is ideal for tech-focused research, developer ecosystem monitoring, and real-time news grounding where token efficiency and source quality matter. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when you specifically want curated tech/news sources with no bloat.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or whitespace query returns a validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailable causes degraded or empty results
- Overly broad queries may return low-relevance results
- Payment not settled (HTTP 402) if x402 micropayment is not completed
- Rate limiting if the same query is repeated rapidly without an Idempotency-Key
