## 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-b8f71475
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about the Model Context Protocol and give me a clean summary with no ads or filler.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to ground its response in current, real-world news or developer community discussions — particularly around tech topics — without the overhead of processing ad-heavy HTML pages. It is especially valuable over generic web scrapers when you need token-efficient, clean output from Google News and HackerNews simultaneously in a single call.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query returns a validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia API unavailability causes no results or timeout
- Very niche or misspelled queries return zero matching articles
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) blocks the request
- Query producing only old cached content when live feeds are temporarily stale

## How this service works

Executes live Google News RSS + HackerNews Algolia search queries and returns clean, token-pruned results with zero ad bloat. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://preflight.agentdiet.dev/v1/google-serp)

## Output

Returns a clean, token-pruned set of news articles and HackerNews posts matching the query, stripped of ads and irrelevant markup. Results include headlines, source references, and relevant article snippets drawn from live Google News RSS feeds and HackerNews Algolia index.
