## 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 primeapi-ai-headlines-7b0d25d7 -d '<json body>'

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly surface current news headlines on a specific topic without managing API keys, especially when paying per-call via USDC on Base is acceptable. Prefer this over full news API subscriptions for lightweight, ad-hoc headline lookups by AI agents.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing query string returns an error or empty result set
- Query too broad returns irrelevant or low-quality headlines
- Service unavailability returns HTTP 402 or 5xx if payment fails
- No matching headlines found for a niche or obscure query
- Rate limiting or payment failure prevents response
