## 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 sitecheck-shop-social-threads-search-0982c910
```

Example prompt: Search Threads for the hashtag #sustainablefashion and pull the top 15 posts — I want to see who's posting, what they're saying, and how many likes and replies each post has.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search Threads (Meta's text-based social platform) by keyword or hashtag and retrieve ranked public posts with full engagement metrics, without requiring a Threads API key or login. Prefer it over Twitter/X search endpoints when the target platform is specifically Threads, and over generic web scrapers when you need structured social post data including likes, replies, reposts, and media.

## Known failure modes

- Threads returns zero results for obscure or very new keywords — empty array returned
- Residential proxy blocked or rate-limited by Threads — upstream HTTP error
- Query parameter 'q' missing — 400 validation error
- limit out of range (>25 or <1) — validation error
- Threads changes its logged-out search page structure — partial or malformed results
- Network timeout from residential proxy — 504 or timeout error

## How this service works

Pay-per-call e-commerce, product, price and social media data tools for AI agents, from public sources. Payment: x402, USDC on Base, Solana, Arc, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, World Chain, Optimism, Avalanche, Celo or Stellar, or RLUSD/XRP on the XRP Ledger. No signup, no API key; a failed call is not charged.

## Output

A list of typically 10–20 Threads posts ranked by Threads' own algorithm, each containing: author handle/name, post text, post timestamp, like count, reply count, repost count, quote count, any attached media URLs, and any links. No date filtering is applied; ranking is determined by Threads.
