Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-toolbox.shablony-pro.workers.dev/dev/hackernews-front-page?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need the live Hacker News front page in an agentic workflow without managing API keys or OAuth — the x402 micropayment ($0.001 USDC) serves as identity and access, making it ideal for autonomous agents that can pay on-demand. Prefer this over scraping HN directly or using unofficial wrappers when you want a deterministic, pay-per-call interface with no registration overhead.
Side effects
- Payment not included or insufficient — returns 402 Payment Required
- Hacker News upstream unavailable — may return error or stale data
- Invalid schema parameter — may return 400 or unexpected structure
- Rate limiting or worker timeout on Cloudflare edge — returns 5xx
