## 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-d07285c3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the tweet with ID 1234567890123456789 and tell me what it says?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to retrieve the full details of a single, specific tweet and already have its tweet ID. Prefer this over user-timeline endpoints when you have an exact tweet reference and don't need to browse a user's history. Ideal for verifying tweet content, enriching data pipelines with tweet metadata, or resolving tweet references in automated workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid tweet ID format — 400 bad request
