## 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 blackbobs-ai-x-twitter-search-009498af -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Search X (Twitter) for recent posts about 'AI agents' and show me what people are saying — especially anything trending or widely discussed.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or recent social media content from X (Twitter) and want pay-per-call pricing without a subscription. It is well-suited for agents that need to search X programmatically and pay via the x402/Base blockchain payment protocol. Prefer this over scraping tools when you need legitimate API access with predictable per-query cost.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if the query matches no recent posts or is too niche
- Rate limiting or payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.18 per-call fee
- Malformed or overly broad queries returning irrelevant results
- X API restrictions may limit access to certain accounts or protected tweets
- Response schema is generic (result object) so structured parsing may require additional handling
