## 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 x402broker-com-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-grounding-65ae4f33 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'Rust programming language adoption in 2025' and give me clean, ad-free results I can actually use.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, real-time news and tech article results grounded in Google News and HackerNews without web scraping overhead or ad bloat — especially useful for AI agent pipelines that need token-efficient current events data. Prefer this over static knowledge bases when recency matters, and over generic web scrapers when clean, structured output is required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if the query is too niche or misspelled
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia API unavailability causing partial or no results
- Query too short (minLength:1 enforced but very short queries may return low-quality results)
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if micropayment is not completed
- Timeout if upstream sources are slow to respond
