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/hackernews-trends)
Output
Returns structured data reflecting live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity metrics, and aggregated developer sentiment for the queried keyword, including relevant thread summaries, comment tone analysis, and trending signals.
Example use cases
Pre-launch competitor intelligence
“Check what developers on HackerNews are currently saying about Vercel — is the sentiment mostly positive or are there complaints gaining traction?”
AI model reception monitoring
“What's the HackerNews developer community saying about Mistral right now? I want to know the buzz level and general sentiment before we publish our comparison post.”
Framework adoption signal check
“Can you pull the current HackerNews discussion velocity and developer sentiment around Svelte? I'm trying to gauge if it's gaining serious traction or cooling off.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment and discussion velocity from HackerNews, as opposed to general social media sentiment or news aggregation. Ideal when the user cares specifically about how technical practitioners (engineers, founders, researchers) are reacting to a technology, startup, or AI model, rather than mainstream consumer opinion.
Side effects
- Empty or too-generic query returns no meaningful results
- HackerNews API rate limits or downtime cause fetch failures
- Very niche or misspelled keyword returns zero matching threads
- Response schema is generic object with no guaranteed fields, so output structure may vary
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 error before any data is returned
