## 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-history-7b4ab661
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the full edit history for tweet ID 1234567890 from user @elonmusk on X — I want to see all the versions of that tweet since it was first posted.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to audit or inspect the edit history of a specific tweet and know both the username and tweet ID. Prefer this over general tweet lookup endpoints when the goal is specifically to trace changes or verify original content vs. edited content. Ideal for fact-checking, content auditing, or journalism workflows where tweet mutation is relevant. No API keys required — only USDC micropayment via x402.

## Known failure modes

- Tweet ID not found — returns error code with empty data
- Username does not match tweet owner — mismatch error
- Tweet has no edit history (never edited) — may return single-entry or empty history
- Payment failure via x402 micropayment — 402 Payment Required response
- Rate limiting or service unavailability — non-zero error code in response
- Invalid tweet ID format — malformed request error
