## 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-tweet-edit-history-760fdab9
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the full edit history for jack's tweet with ID 20 — I want to see every version it went through, including what it originally said?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to audit, verify, or display the edit history of a known tweet identified by its numeric ID and the author's username. Ideal for fact-checking workflows, journalism tools, or content monitoring systems that need to compare original and revised tweet text.

## Known failure modes

- Tweet ID not found or does not belong to the specified user — returns 404
- Tweet was never edited so only the current version is returned
- Invalid tweet ID format (non-numeric or exceeds 19 digits) — validation error
- Invalid username format (contains disallowed characters) — validation error
- Payment not processed or x402 payment required — returns 402
- Twitter/X API upstream unavailable — returns 503 or timeout

## How this service works

A tweet's edit history: the latest version plus every prior revision. Example: GET /api/jack/tweets/20/history

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the latest version of the tweet plus an ordered list of all prior revisions, showing how the tweet's content changed over each edit.
