## 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 serp-extract-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-0636f906
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'LLM inference optimization' and give me clean, ad-free results I can use as citations.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, citation-quality news or technical community results without crawling full web pages. It is especially suited for grounding LLM responses with live, token-efficient sources when both mainstream news (Google News RSS) and developer/tech discourse (HackerNews) coverage is valuable. Prefer this over general web scrapers when token budget is tight and ad-free, clean output is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query returns no results or a validation error
- Query returns stale or no results if neither Google News RSS nor HackerNews Algolia index has recent matching content
- Rate limits or upstream RSS/Algolia unavailability may cause transient failures
- Very niche or obscure queries may return few or zero matching articles
- Payment (x402) not completed results in HTTP 402 response blocking access
