## 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-spy-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-live-web-search-tech-news-3595f78d
```

Example prompt: Can you search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about Rust's async ecosystem — I want clean, ad-free results I can actually read?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, up-to-date tech news and developer community discussion results without HTML ad bloat consuming token budgets. It's ideal for AI agents that need grounding data from real-time web sources, particularly when HackerNews developer sentiment or Google News coverage is relevant. Prefer this over static knowledge bases when recency matters, and over general web scrapers when token efficiency is critical.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if query is too niche or recent with no indexed coverage
- Upstream RSS or Algolia API unavailability causing search failure
- Query too short or vague returning irrelevant results
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 payment not resolved
- Stale results if news sources haven't indexed the event yet
