## 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 token-intel-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-0c605756 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for live news and HackerNews discussions about the React Server Components controversy and give me clean, ad-free results I can cite.

## When to prefer this

Prefer this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, citation-quality news and developer community results without the token overhead of raw HTML or ad-laden pages. It is ideal for grounding LLM outputs with current facts, monitoring fast-moving tech topics, or pulling HackerNews sentiment alongside mainstream news in a single call. Choose it over generic web scrapers when token efficiency and clean output matter, or when you specifically want HackerNews developer discourse alongside Google News.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query string returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia API downtime causes fetch failure
- Query returns zero results for very niche or misspelled terms
- Payment failure (HTTP 402) if x402 USDC micropayment not processed
- Rate limiting if idempotency key is missing across rapid retries
