## 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 sec-intel-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-1ac89d98
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about OpenAI's new model releases and give me a clean summary of what's happening right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, token-efficient news and tech discussion results without scraping overhead or ad-laden HTML. It is ideal for grounding LLM responses with current events, particularly in tech, AI, security, and crypto domains. Prefer it over general web scrapers when HackerNews community signal is valuable alongside mainstream news, and when token budget is a concern since results are pre-pruned for agent consumption.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or vague query string returns no results or irrelevant matches
- Rate limiting or upstream Google News RSS downtime may cause partial or failed responses
- HackerNews Algolia API outage results in missing HN results with only RSS fallback
- Payment failure (HTTP 402) blocks access if x402 USDC payment is not properly handled
- Very niche or obscure queries may return zero results if no recent coverage exists
