## 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-f3569776 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'Rust async runtime performance' and give me clean, ad-free results I can reason over.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs fresh, real-time grounding context from tech news or general news without the token overhead of raw HTML scraping. It is ideal when the agent needs current events, recent developer discourse (HackerNews), or live news on a topic — especially when token efficiency matters. Prefer over generic web scrapers when the target is news/tech content specifically, and over static knowledge bases when recency is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or vague query string returns no meaningful results
- Rate limiting or upstream RSS/Algolia downtime causes partial or empty response
- Highly niche queries may return zero results from either source
- Payment not processed (HTTP 402) if x402 USDC micropayment not completed
- Idempotency-Key collision may cause unexpected cached responses
