## 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-x-comments-scraper-da5fa152 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the top 200 comments on this tweet — https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1234567890 — and give me the text, likes, and retweet counts for each reply?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, pay-per-successful-call reply data from public Twitter/X posts without building your own scraper. Supports both single and batch tweet lookups. Ideal for sentiment analysis, competitive research, or audience monitoring pipelines where you only pay when data is actually returned.

## Known failure modes

- Tweet is private or suspended — returns empty items array
- Invalid tweet ID or malformed URL — likely returns empty result or error
- Rate limiting or blocking by Twitter/X — may return partial results
- Tweet has no replies — returns count of 0 with empty items array
- maxItems exceeds 50000 — request rejected by schema validation

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of retrieved items and an array of reply objects, each containing: reply ID, reply URL, reply text, display text, like count, retweet count, parent tweet ID, and parent tweet URL. Failed or empty runs are not billed.
