Endpoint
POSThttps://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, live developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — the canonical source for technical founders, engineers, and early adopters. Prefer this over generic social sentiment APIs when your audience is the developer/startup/hacker ecosystem, or when you need front-page velocity as a signal of trending traction among technical users.
Side effects
- Empty or missing query string returns a validation error
- Very niche or obscure topic with no HackerNews coverage may return sparse or empty results
- Payment required (HTTP 402) if x402 micropayment header is not included or invalid
- Rate limiting or upstream HackerNews API outage may cause delayed or failed responses
- Non-English or highly abbreviated query terms may produce poor sentiment coverage
