## 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-profile-search-8bfdc4fc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Instagram profiles on StableSocial for accounts that mention 'sustainable fashion' in their bio or captions — show me the first page of results.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to discover Instagram profiles by keyword without requiring authentication, subscriptions, or Instagram API credentials. Ideal for one-off or pay-per-use queries in agent workflows where spinning up OAuth is impractical. Best for keyword-driven profile discovery rather than fetching a known user's profile directly.

## Known failure modes

- Empty result set if the keyword has no matching profiles
- Invalid or expired cursor returns an error or restarts pagination
- Missing or empty query string returns a validation error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns a 402 response
- Service may return stale data if Instagram's underlying data is not fresh

## How this service works

Pay-per-request access to social media data from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and LinkedIn. No auth, no subscriptions.

## Output

Returns a list of Instagram profiles matching the keyword query, including profile details discoverable via bio/caption keyword search, plus a cursor value for paginating to the next page of results.
