## 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-21ab9327 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Look up the Twitter/X profile for the user @elonmusk — I want their follower count, bio, and account creation date.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-request access to Twitter/X user profile metadata without managing your own Twitter API credentials or subscription. Ideal for agents performing one-off lookups, influencer research, or enriching a dataset with social profile data on an as-needed basis. Prefer over direct Twitter API integration when you want to avoid OAuth setup complexity and prefer USDC micropayments.

## Known failure modes

- User not found — username or ID does not exist or has been suspended
- Rate limit exceeded — Twitter/X upstream API quota hit
- Invalid input — malformed or empty username/ID provided
- Account suspended or deactivated — profile no longer publicly accessible
- Payment failure — insufficient USDC balance for the $0.11 per-call fee
