## 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 preflight-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-016ca925 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'LLM prompt injection attacks' and give me a clean summary of what's being said right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs fresh, live web and tech news results with minimal token overhead — especially when grounding LLM responses with current events, HackerNews community sentiment, or recent technology news. Prefer it over static knowledge bases when recency matters, and over generic web scrapers when token efficiency and ad-free output are priorities.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailable causing fetch failure
- Query returns zero results for obscure or misspelled terms
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if credits are exhausted
- Network timeout if upstream feeds are slow to respond
