# ReadX — Get Following List (Web)

> ReadX — Get Following List (Web) is a paid API for AI agents from readx.sh, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

## 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-get-following-list-web-57f76e67
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the full list of accounts that jack follows on X, paginating through all the pages?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve the accounts a specific X/Twitter user follows, especially for social graph analysis, influence mapping, or competitor research. Prefer it over scraping X directly since it provides structured JSON with built-in pagination and a predictable pay-per-call cost model. It is capped at ~800 accounts, so for accounts following more than that, expect truncation.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or suspended X handle returns an error or empty result
- Private/protected accounts may not expose following list
- Pagination cursor mismatch or expired cursor returns an error
- Rate limits or payment failures (HTTP 402) halt further calls
- Account with zero following returns empty list with has_more=false

## How this service works

Accounts a user follows as shown on the web (~70 per page, capped at ~800; paginate with cursor until has_more is false). Example: GET /api/jack/following_web

## Output

A paginated JSON response containing a list of X/Twitter account objects that the specified user follows (approximately 70 per page, capped at ~800 total). Each page includes a pagination object with a next_cursor field and a has_more boolean to drive iteration.
