## 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 payweave-twitter-get-user-following-list-f08a8e9e
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the list of accounts that @naval is following on X — grab 200 per page so we get through it efficiently?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to retrieve the accounts a specific public Twitter/X user follows, especially in an agent context where pay-per-call micropayments (USDC via x402) are preferable to managing API keys and Twitter developer app credentials. It is well-suited for social graph analysis, influencer research, and audience intelligence tasks where you need paginated following data without setting up your own Twitter API access.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent username returns an error or empty array
- Rate limits from the upstream twitterapi.io may cause failures under high concurrency
- Missing required 'username' field in request body returns a validation error
- Invalid next_token / stale cursor may return an error or restart pagination
- Private/protected accounts may return empty results if the account is not public
- Insufficient USDC balance causes x402 payment failure before the request is proxied

## How this service works

X/Twitter data — tweets, users, communities, lists, articles, and trends.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing an array of user-profile objects under the 'followings' key, each with standard X/Twitter profile fields (id, name, screen_name, bio, follower counts, etc.), along with a 'next_cursor' string for pagination and a 'has_next_page' boolean indicating whether more results exist.
