## 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-live-web-search-tech-news-grounding-3dacc616
```

Example prompt: What's the latest news and HackerNews coverage on the OpenAI GPT-5 release — give me clean, ad-free results with no fluff?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, live web search results from trusted tech news and developer community sources (Google News + HackerNews) without parsing ad-laden HTML. It is ideal for AI agent grounding tasks, tech trend monitoring, and developer ecosystem awareness where freshness matters and token efficiency is critical. Prefer over static datasets or general web scrapers when you specifically want clean, pre-filtered tech and news content.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or overly broad query returns low-relevance results
- Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia upstream outage causes partial or failed results
- Very niche queries may return zero results if no recent coverage exists
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC micropayment not settled
- Queries with ambiguous terms may mix unrelated news topics
