## 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`):

zero fetch --capability thebotwire-com-chemical-industry-news-feed-506fe58b
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest chemical industry news from thebotwire — give me up to 15 results from the past 24 hours, filtering to Chemical Engineering Online, and search for anything related to hydrogen plant projects.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs real-time or recent chemical industry news, process engineering updates, plant project announcements, or feedstock news from specialist trade sources. Prefer over general news APIs when the user's domain is specifically chemicals, petrochemicals, or industrial process engineering, and especially when filtering by trade publication (chemengonline or thechemicaleng) is needed.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if query terms match no recent articles
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. malformed duration string) may cause an error or empty response
- 'src' enum value must be exactly 'chemengonline' or 'thechemicaleng' — other values rejected
- Limit exceeds maximum of 50 — API returns error
- Stale or no content if no articles published within the requested freshness window

## How this service works

Chemical industry and process engineering , plant projects, feedstocks, process safety. Chemical producers' procurement and strategy teams, engineering contractors, and equipment vendors

## Output

A list of news articles from curated chemical industry sources (chemengonline, thechemicaleng), each likely including headline, source, timestamp, summary or body text, and URL. Results are filtered by optional keyword query, source, result count, and freshness window.
