## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability twitter-surf-cascade-fyi-6e682bc0
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest tweets from @DefiantNews on Twitter, and include any replies they've posted too?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need tweets from the @DefiantNews account and are operating within an x402 micropayment-enabled agent framework. It is a hardcoded single-user endpoint rather than a generic Twitter search tool, making it ideal for monitoring or aggregating DefiantNews content specifically.

## Known failure modes

- Account not found or suspended – endpoint may return empty or error
- Rate limiting from underlying Twitter API – may result in timeout or error response
- Payment failure (x402) – call not executed if USDC payment not processed
- No recent tweets available – empty result set
- include_replies parameter ignored or misformatted – replies may not appear
