## 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-fd634908
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about the OpenAI o3 model release and give me clean, ad-free summaries of the top results.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs fresh, real-world grounding from technology news or developer communities (HackerNews) without incurring large token costs from ad-laden HTML scraping. It is ideal for tech-focused queries where Google News RSS and HackerNews Algolia are authoritative sources — particularly for developer tools, frameworks, startups, AI models, and open source projects. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when token efficiency and clean structured output matter, and over static knowledge bases when recency is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or very broad query returning irrelevant results
- Query too niche to return any Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia matches
- Rate limiting or upstream RSS/Algolia unavailability causing empty or error response
- Payment not settled via x402 resulting in 402 response before results are returned
- Stale index lag causing very recent breaking news to not yet appear

## How this service works

## Output

Returns a clean, token-pruned JSON object containing ranked news articles and HackerNews posts matching the query, with titles, URLs, publication timestamps, and summaries — all ad and bloat stripped for efficient agent consumption.
