Discussion Search (HN, Bluesky, Lemmy)

Find out what people say about a topic or a specific link. Searches Hacker News (stories with their top-ranked comments), Bluesky posts and Lemmy threads (with top comments) in one call, by keywords or by URL (finds every thread that shared that link, useful for product launches, articles and competitors). Each thread has title, text snippet, linked URL, discussion URL, author, points, comment count, date and up to 5 top comments; a summary gives total threads, points, comments and the most discussed thread. A source that is down reports an error without failing the call. Reddit and X are not included. Params: query or url (one required), sources (default all: hackernews, bluesky, lemmy), sort ('top' default or 'recent'), days (lookback 1 to 3650, optional), limit per source (1 to 20, default 5), comments per thread (0 to 5, default 2).

import { registerExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm/exact/client";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const client = new x402Client();
registerExactEvmScheme(client, { signer: privateKeyToAccount(process.env.EVM_PRIVATE_KEY) });
const payFetch = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, client);

  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({"query":"x402","limit":3,"comments":2}),
});
const { data, payment } = await res.json();  // payment.transaction = on-chain receipt
