## 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 thebotwire-cycling-news-feed-ce2e052f
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest cycling news from CyclingNews and CyclingWeekly — up to 15 stories from the past 24 hours — and summarize any rider transfer announcements or grand tour updates.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need curated, specialist road cycling content from trusted outlets (CyclingNews, CyclingWeekly, Velo, Escape Collective) rather than general sports news. Ideal for agents focused on grand tours, professional race results, and the niche rider-transfer market where source quality matters. Prefer over general news endpoints when cycling-specific context is required.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if freshness window is too narrow and no recent articles exist
- Invalid 'src' enum value causes request rejection
- 'limit' outside 1–50 range causes validation error
- Network timeout if upstream news sources are temporarily unavailable
- Empty result set if 'q' search term matches no indexed cycling stories

## How this service works

Road cycling: grand tours, transfers and racing. Cycling-media aggregators and endurance-gear retail content agents; rider-transfer news has a small but real betting market

## Output

A list of cycling news items with headlines, source names (e.g. cyclingnews, cyclingweekly, velo), publication timestamps, and article URLs. Results are scoped to the freshness window and optional source/query filters specified. Default returns up to 10 items; up to 50 supported.
