## 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 basebuilder-twitter-downloader-7f2ed836 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you download the video from this tweet for me? Here's the URL: https://twitter.com/user/status/1234567890

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically download or extract media (video, images, GIFs) from Twitter/X posts and are comfortable paying per-call via x402/USDC. Prefer this over screen recording or manual downloads when building automated pipelines that process Twitter media at scale.

## Known failure modes

- Tweet is from a private/protected account and media cannot be accessed
