## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability thebotwire-wordpress-news-feed-150b85ae
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest 15 WordPress and Gutenberg news items from the last 24 hours — I want to catch any plugin-breaking releases or major core announcements.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs current WordPress-specific news — core releases, Gutenberg updates, plugin/theme vendor announcements, or WP economy developments — especially when monitoring for release-related breaking changes in a commercial plugin or hosting context. It offers source-level filtering and flexible freshness windows that make it well-suited for scheduled monitoring workflows in WP-adjacent tools.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if freshness window is too narrow and no new items exist
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '1week' instead of '7d') may cause query errors
- Source filter value outside allowed enum ('wordpress','github','github2') will fail validation
- Requesting more than 50 items returns a validation error
- Stale or unavailable upstream feeds may return fewer results than requested

## How this service works

WordPress core, Gutenberg and the WP economy. Plugin/theme vendors, managed-WP hosts and agencies , a large commercial ecosystem where a release breaking a plugin costs real money

## Output

Returns a list of WordPress-focused news items (up to 50) including article titles, summaries, source attribution, publication timestamps, and links — filtered optionally by source (wordpress.org, GitHub, etc.), keyword query, result count, and freshness window.
