## 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-live-web-search-tech-news-grounding-8aa96c8b
```

Example prompt: Can you search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about OpenAI's new model releases and give me clean, ad-free results I can actually use?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, current news and tech community sentiment (especially HackerNews) without the token overhead of raw web scraping. It is ideal for grounding AI responses with up-to-date facts, tracking breaking tech news, or surfacing developer community reactions — particularly when clean, compact output matters for downstream agent processing. Prefer it over general web scrapers when freshness and token efficiency are both required.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or overly vague query returns no results
- Highly niche queries with no recent news coverage return sparse results
- Rate limiting or upstream RSS/Algolia outages may cause failed fetches
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the request before execution
- Query too broad returns noisy, low-relevance results
