## 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 socialfetch-threads-user-search-58f65ebb
```

Example prompt: Search Threads for users related to 'sustainable fashion' — I want to find accounts posting about eco-friendly clothing brands.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover or enumerate Threads user accounts matching a keyword, topic, or name — particularly for influencer research, competitive analysis, or finding community members on Threads. Prefer this over scraping or manual search when programmatic access is needed.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if query matches no Threads users
- Query too short or too long (minLength 1, maxLength 512) returns validation error
- Threads API rate limiting or platform unavailability causes downstream failure
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Invalid or missing query parameter returns 400-level error
