## 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-a1078616
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about Anthropic Claude's new model release and give me clean, ad-free summaries of what's being said right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, current web news or developer community content with minimal token overhead — especially for grounding agent responses in recent facts, fact-checking claims against current sources, or monitoring tech news without dealing with ad-heavy HTML scraping. Prefer this over static knowledge retrieval when recency matters and you want results from both mainstream news (Google News) and the developer/hacker community (HackerNews) simultaneously.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or very short query returns no results
- Query matches no recent news yields empty results array
- Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia upstream outage causes degraded or missing results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if x402 payment is not processed
- Overly broad query may return loosely relevant results

## Output
