## 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-instagram-posts-0d4ba148 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the most recent Instagram posts for the account @glossier — I want to see what they've been posting, including captions and engagement numbers.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need Instagram post data on a pay-per-request basis without committing to a subscription or managing OAuth credentials. Ideal for sporadic or low-volume lookups where predictable per-call pricing ($0.06 USDC) is preferable to monthly plans.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent Instagram username returns empty results or 404
- Payment failure via x402 protocol returns 402 with payment required details
- Rate limit or platform-side blocking returns 429 or error payload
- Private account data may be inaccessible, returning empty or restricted response
- Malformed request body returns 400 bad request
