## 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 whale-momentum-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-7f486c99
```

Example prompt: Search for live news and HackerNews discussions about 'OpenAI GPT-5 release' and give me clean, ad-free citations I can use to ground my answer.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs live, grounded web citations from tech-focused sources (HackerNews, Google News) with minimal token overhead and zero ad noise — especially when the agent needs to cite current events, recent developer discussions, or breaking tech news without consuming excessive context window space. Prefer this over generic web search APIs when token efficiency and ad-free cleanliness of results matter, or when HackerNews community signals are specifically valuable.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty 'query' parameter returns a validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailability results in empty or partial results
- Very niche queries may return zero results
- Payment failure via x402 returns HTTP 402 and no results
- Rate limiting may apply if too many requests are made in quick succession
