## 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-528925a3
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about OpenAI's new model releases and give me clean, ad-free summaries of what people are saying.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time news and developer community results grounded in current web data, especially for tech topics where HackerNews coverage is valuable. Prefer it over static knowledge bases when freshness matters, and over raw web scrapers when token efficiency and ad-free cleanliness are required. Ideal for AI agents that need to ground responses in current events without wasting context window on boilerplate.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or whitespace query returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability causes fetch failure
- Very niche queries may return zero results
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC triggers HTTP 402
- Rate limiting may occur for high-frequency callers
- Extremely long queries may be truncated or rejected
