## 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 adfreellm-instagram-research-api-7b2f7f3d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the Instagram profile details for the username 'nikerunning' — I want their follower count, full name, and up to 5 recent posts.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need Instagram-specific social data (profiles, posts, reels, comments, mentions) without setting up an Instagram API key or subscription. It is ideal for AI agents that require pay-per-use, keyless access to public Instagram data, especially for one-off research tasks, competitive analysis, or influencer vetting workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Private or non-existent Instagram account returns empty results or error
- Exceeding limit maximum of 10 results causes validation error
- Missing or invalid 'target' field causes request rejection
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance blocks the request
- Rate limiting or Instagram anti-scraping measures may cause intermittent failures

## How this service works
