## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability strale-social-profile-check-5543d2b9
```

Example prompt: Can you check which social media platforms have an account registered under the username 'morningbloom' — I want to know where that handle already exists before I launch my brand?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a simultaneous cross-platform username check with an auditable, cryptographically hashed result trail. Prefer this over manual per-platform lookups or generic WHOIS tools when you need coverage across many platforms in a single call, trust verification via audit record, and micropayment-based usage with no subscription commitment. Especially valuable for brand protection workflows, competitive intelligence, and pre-launch social media strategy.

## Known failure modes

- Username not provided — returns validation error requiring the username query parameter
- Network timeout when querying one or more platforms — partial results may be returned
- Rate limiting on underlying platform lookups — may return cached or incomplete data
- Invalid or malformed username string — platforms may reject the lookup
- Username contains special characters unsupported by some platforms — inconsistent results across platforms

## How this service works

The trust layer for AI agents — 250+ independently tested data capabilities across 27 countries. Execute capabilities via REST, MCP, A2A, or x402 micropayments. Every call returns an audit record with cryptographic chain hashing.

## Output

Returns a structured report showing which social media platforms have an account registered under the queried username, along with an audit record containing a cryptographic chain hash for trust verification. Typically indicates profile existence per platform and may include profile metadata where publicly available.
