## 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 stablesocial-github-followers-scraper-dadd4028 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you scrape the followers list for the GitHub user 'torvalds' and tell me how many people follow them?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need programmatic, pay-per-request access to GitHub follower data without managing GitHub API keys or OAuth tokens. Prefer this over the GitHub REST API when you want a simple HTTP POST with per-call micropayment billing (x402/USDC), or when GitHub API rate limits are a concern. Best suited for ad-hoc agent workflows that need follower data for specific users on demand.

## Known failure modes

- GitHub username not found — returns error or empty result
- Private or suspended GitHub account — data unavailable
- Rate limiting or scraping restrictions on GitHub's side causing partial results
- Invalid or missing username parameter in the request body
- Payment failure via x402 protocol preventing the request from completing
