## 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 kiteendpoints-ai-twitter-search-only-86e9fb5b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Twitter for recent tweets about 'Base chain crypto' and show me what people are saying.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need programmatic access to Twitter/X search results without a direct Twitter API account, prefer pay-per-use pricing over a monthly subscription, and are building on a crypto-native payment stack using USDC on Base. It suits agents that need occasional Twitter lookups rather than high-volume streaming ingestion.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or empty search query returns an error or empty result set
- Payment failure on Base chain causes 402 response and no data returned
- Twitter API rate limits or downtime cause upstream failures
- Overly broad queries may return low-quality or irrelevant results
- Service may be unavailable if the KiteEndpoints.ai proxy is down
