## 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 tokenguard-api-rss-web-feed-reader-5a3f7750 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the RSS feed from https://feeds.arstechnica.com/arstechnica/index and give me the latest 5 article titles, links, and summaries?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch and parse a remote RSS or Atom feed URL into structured article data without setting up your own feed parser. It is suitable for one-off or periodic feed reads where you need titles, links, summaries, and publish dates in JSON form, especially in crypto/DeFi contexts where the broader tokenguard API ecosystem is already in use for on-chain data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable feed URL returns an error with no items
- Feed URL points to non-RSS/Atom content resulting in a parse error
- Network timeout if the target feed server is slow or down
- Malformed XML in the feed may cause partial or empty results
- Payment failure via x402 micropayment returns 402 status before data is fetched

## How this service works

Parse an RSS/Atom feed into structured items (title, link, published, summary) — or auto-discover the feed from a site URL

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the feed title, feed URL, format (rss or atom), and a count of items along with an array of recent items each containing the article title, link, summary/description, and published timestamp.
