## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability readx-tweet-status-lookup-by-id-a6dfdbd4
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the full details for tweet ID 1234567890123456789 on X — I need the text, author, and engagement stats in JSON format without setting up Twitter API keys.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch a specific tweet by its ID without setting up Twitter/X API credentials or OAuth. Ideal for AI agents that need occasional Twitter data lookups and can pay per call in USDC via x402 micropayments on Base or Solana, avoiding API key management overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Tweet ID not found or deleted — empty data object or non-zero code returned
- Invalid tweet ID format — malformed request error
- Tweet from private/suspended account — access denied or empty result
- Payment not processed — HTTP 402 response requiring x402 micropayment in USDC
- Rate limiting or service unavailability — non-zero error code
