## 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-77bed115
```

Example prompt: Can you search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about the Anthropic Claude 4 release — give me clean results with no ads or junk?

## When to prefer this

Prefer this endpoint when you need live, token-efficient web and tech news search results from both Google News and HackerNews simultaneously, especially when minimizing token overhead is critical for agent workflows. Choose this over general web scrapers when you want aggregated, clean news results without ad bloat, and over static datasets when freshness is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns a 400 validation error
- Query returns no results if topic is too obscure or not in recent news
- Rate limiting or upstream RSS/Algolia outages may cause partial or empty responses
- Very broad queries may return low-relevance results due to RSS feed limitations
- Payment not completed (402) blocks access entirely
