## 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 readx-following-list-ea480bcc
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the list of accounts that @jack follows on X? Page through all of them using the cursor until you've got the full set.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured JSON data about the accounts a specific X/Twitter user follows, especially for social graph analysis, influence mapping, or building follower/following relationship datasets. Prefer this over scraping X directly since it handles pagination and authentication, and over the official X API if you want per-call micropayment pricing without managing OAuth credentials.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-alphanumeric username returns a validation error
- User account not found or suspended returns an error response
- Expired or invalid pagination cursor causes a failed or repeated page fetch
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Rate limiting on the underlying X data source may cause timeouts or partial results

## How this service works

Accounts a user follows (~200 per page; paginate with cursor until has_more is false). Example: GET /api/jack/following

## Output

A JSON response containing up to ~200 accounts that the specified user follows, each with profile data, plus a pagination object with a bottom cursor and a has_more boolean to drive further page requests.
