## 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-4ad1ab1e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'OpenAI GPT-5' and give me clean, ad-free results I can use for grounding.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, current web or tech news grounding without the token overhead of raw HTML scraping. It is specifically optimized for HackerNews and Google News RSS sources, making it ideal for developer-focused or tech-oriented queries. Prefer it over generic search APIs when token efficiency and ad-free output are priorities, especially in agentic pipelines where context window usage matters.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns a 400 validation error
- Query matches no live results — empty result set returned
- Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia upstream outage causes degraded or partial results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC micropayment is not processed
- Very broad or ambiguous queries may return low-relevance results

## How this service works

Executes live Google News RSS + HackerNews Algolia search queries and returns clean, token-pruned results with zero ad bloat. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/serp-scraper)

## Output

A structured, token-pruned set of news articles and HackerNews posts matching the query, with titles, URLs, and summaries stripped of ads, trackers, and boilerplate — ready for direct agent consumption or grounding.
