## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability thebotwire-esa-latest-f647b9fb
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest ESA announcements from TheBotWire — give me up to 20 results from the past 24 hours, and filter for anything related to Earth observation missions.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, near-real-time ESA news and announcements without scraping the ESA website directly. Ideal for space-domain agents that need to monitor European space programme developments, distinguish ESA content from NASA content, or trigger workflows based on specific mission or Earth observation events. Prefer this over generic web search when you need reliable, source-filtered ESA updates with freshness controls.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned when freshness window is too narrow and no recent ESA news has been published
- Search query returns empty set if terms don't match any indexed ESA announcements
- Rate limiting or payment failure if USDC micropayment via x402 is not properly handled
- Stale cache if ESA feed has not been updated recently

## How this service works

European Space Agency announcements for space and research agents: mission milestones, launches, Earth observation results and science programme decisions. The European counterpart to the NASA wire.

## Output

Returns a list of ESA announcements and news items, each typically including a title, summary, source, timestamp, and link. Results can be filtered by keyword search, freshness window (e.g. 30m, 2h, 24h, 3d), and capped at a specified limit (up to 50).
