## 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`):

```

Example prompt: Pull the latest esports news from Dexerto — I want to see tournament results, roster moves, and any patch or meta updates from the past 24 hours, up to 20 items.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need esports-specific news — tournament outcomes, roster moves, prize pools, and competitive meta shifts — sourced reliably from Dexerto. Prefer it over a general breaking news endpoint when the user's query is clearly esports- or competitive-gaming-focused. The optional freshness window and search query parameters make it ideal for agents that need to stay current on a specific title or event without parsing general gaming news.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if the query term matches no indexed articles within the freshness window
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 payment is not properly handled
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '1week' instead of '7d') may cause a parameter error
- Limit values outside 1–50 range will be rejected
- If the 'src' field is set to a value other than 'dexerto', the request will fail validation
