## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, grounded web search results from tech-focused sources (Google News and HackerNews) with minimal token overhead and no ad noise. Ideal for grounding agent responses with current citations, fact-checking recent tech events, or monitoring news without needing a general-purpose search engine subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query returns no results
- Query matches no recent news items in Google News RSS or HackerNews
- Payment required (HTTP 402) if x402 micropayment header is missing or insufficient
- Upstream RSS or Algolia API unavailable causing search failure
- Rate limiting if too many requests without valid idempotency key
