## 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-ae72522c
```

Example prompt: Search live tech news and HackerNews right now for anything about 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me the top clean results with no ads.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time news or HackerNews community coverage on a topic and want token-efficient, ad-free results. Ideal for agents that need grounding in current events, tech announcements, or community sentiment without paying the token cost of raw web pages. Prefer this over general web scrapers when the goal is news or developer community content specifically.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query returns validation error
- Overly broad queries may return low-relevance results
- Upstream RSS or Algolia outage may cause partial or no results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if per-call credit is not provided
- Very niche queries may return zero results if not indexed by Google News or HackerNews
