## 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-d0f52e03
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me clean, ad-free results I can actually use.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, grounded web or tech news search results without token-expensive ad bloat — particularly when sourcing from Google News and HackerNews simultaneously. Prefer this over generic web scraping when you want pre-cleaned, agent-optimized output and are working within tight token budgets. Ideal for grounding LLM responses with current events, tech announcements, or HackerNews community reactions.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or vague query returns no results or irrelevant results
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 payment is not resolved
- Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia upstream outage causes empty response
- Query too long or malformed returns validation error
- Rare topics with no recent news yield sparse or zero results
