## 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-x-twitter-user-lookup-09b4abd2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the public profile info for the X/Twitter account @elonmusk — I want their bio, follower count, and account details?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve public profile information for a specific X/Twitter user by their handle, especially in automated workflows that pay per request via USDC on Base chain. Prefer this over direct Twitter API access when you need a simple pay-per-use model without managing Twitter API credentials.

## Known failure modes

- User not found — handle doesn't exist or account is suspended (404-equivalent in result)
- Rate limit exceeded on the underlying Twitter data source
- Invalid or missing username input returns an error result
- Private/protected account may return limited or no data
- Network timeout if upstream Twitter API is slow or unavailable
