## 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 twitter-surf-cascade-fyi-05df7f17
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest tweets from samczsun on Twitter, including any replies they've posted?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to fetch recent tweets from a known Twitter/X username and want a pay-per-call model without managing Twitter API credentials directly. Best for lightweight, on-demand tweet retrieval for specific accounts (e.g. monitoring a researcher or influencer), especially when already using the x402 payment protocol on the Cascade facilitator network.

## Known failure modes

- User not found or handle misspelled – likely returns 404 or empty result
- Payment not processed – x402 payment required before access is granted
- Rate limiting – too many requests may result in throttling
- Private/suspended account – tweets not accessible, likely returns error or empty list
- Network timeout – endpoint unreachable
