## 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 scrapemole-social-bluesky-profile-lookup-b5bdd5ec
```

Example prompt: What's the Bluesky profile for bsky.app — how many followers do they have and what's their DID?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured Bluesky profile metadata (follower counts, DID, post count) for a specific user by handle or DID, without needing to authenticate or set up an account. Prefer this over direct AT Protocol calls when you want pay-per-use USDC billing with no API key management.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or non-existent handle/DID returns an error — actor must be a valid, resolvable Bluesky handle or DID
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) results in a 402 response and no charge
- Bluesky API downtime may cause transient failures
- Malformed actor parameter (e.g. missing TLD on handle) may return a resolution error

## How this service works

Pay-per-call public social data for agents: Telegram public channel posts; Mastodon hashtag timelines; Bluesky post search, profiles and author feeds; Hacker News full-text search and threads with comments; Lobsters hottest stories. Official public APIs only, no logins, no private data. USDC via x402, no accounts; failed calls are never charged.

Payments: x402 v2, scheme "exact", USDC on Base (eip155:8453). The payment is verified before the work and settled only when the response is 200. Terms: https://social.scrapemole.workers.dev/terms
