## When to prefer this

Ideal for enriching developer records, validating GitHub handles, or gathering social/professional signals from GitHub profiles in agent workflows. Priced per call at $0.002 USDC with x402 payment.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed or empty handle input — may return validation error
- GitHub API rate limiting or downtime — service may return error or timeout
- Private/suspended accounts may not return full profile data
