## 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-live-web-search-tech-news-5f3a1289
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solutions and give me the top clean results without any ad clutter.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time web and tech news grounding with minimal token overhead — especially when consuming results inside an LLM context window where ad bloat and verbose HTML would waste tokens. Prefer it over general web scrapers when you specifically want Google News and HackerNews coverage, and when micropayment-native (x402) API access fits your agent's payment infrastructure.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia API unavailability causes degraded or empty results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if micropayment not resolved
- Query too broad may return loosely relevant or noisy results
- No results found for highly niche or misspelled queries

## Output
