How this service works
Queries live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity, and developer sentiment on any framework, startup, or AI model. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/tech-trends)
Output
Returns a structured object containing live HackerNews discussion data, front-page velocity metrics, and aggregated developer sentiment signals for the queried technology or topic keyword, sourced from real-time HackerNews Algolia search and front-page tracking.
Example use cases
Evaluating a new AI model's reception
“Check HackerNews right now and tell me how developers are reacting to the Mistral 7B model — is the community positive, negative, or split?”
Competitive startup intelligence
“I'm pitching against Linear tomorrow — can you pull the latest HackerNews discussions and sentiment around Linear so I know how the developer community perceives them?”
Framework adoption signal for tech decision
“Our team is debating between Svelte and Vue for our next project — what's the current HackerNews buzz and developer sentiment around Svelte?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/tech-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community opinion and momentum signals specifically from HackerNews — the canonical forum for technical founders and engineers. It is preferable over general web sentiment tools when the target audience is developers, and over static datasets when you need live front-page velocity or breaking discussion threads rather than historical averages.
Side effects
- Empty or too-generic query returns low-signal or sparse results
- HackerNews Algolia API downtime causes fetch failure
- Very niche or misspelled keyword yields no matching discussions
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) blocks the request
- Response schema is loosely typed object — downstream parsing may require resilience
