Example use cases
Framework adoption pulse check
“Pull the live HackerNews sentiment and discussion velocity for 'Svelte' — I want to know if developers are warming up to it or losing interest compared to the usual React chatter.”
AI model launch reception monitor
“Check what HackerNews is saying about 'Claude 3.5 Sonnet' right now — how fast is it trending, and is the overall developer sentiment positive or negative?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://serp-extract.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-velocity-radar?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment rather than general social media sentiment. It is ideal for understanding how technical audiences on HackerNews perceive a specific framework, startup, or AI model, especially when front-page traction and comment-level developer opinion matter more than Twitter volume or Reddit upvotes.
Side effects
- Empty or overly broad query returns noisy or irrelevant results
- Very niche or obscure topic with no HackerNews activity returns empty or minimal data
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Ambiguous topic keyword matches unrelated HackerNews threads
- Intermittent real-time data latency if HackerNews API is slow or rate-throttled
