## 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 shopify-intel-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-live-web-search-tech-news-8cbbf598
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about Anthropic's model releases and give me clean, token-efficient results I can use to ground your response.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time news and tech article grounding with minimal token overhead — especially when HackerNews community coverage is relevant alongside mainstream news, and when avoiding ad-laden HTML scraping is a priority. Prefer over general web scrapers when token efficiency matters and the use case centers on news and tech content rather than arbitrary web pages.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query string returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia outage causes empty or partial results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC micropayment is not attached
- Highly niche queries may return zero results if no matching articles exist
- Network timeouts from upstream RSS/Algolia fetch may cause delayed or failed responses
