## 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-public-profile-scraper-x402-pay-per-call-3d35cf7b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 20 public posts from the Twitter handles @elonmusk and @sama — I need the post text, timestamps, and retweet counts as structured data.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured tweet data from public Twitter/X profiles without managing Twitter API credentials or OAuth flows. It is ideal for AI agents that need pay-per-call access (no subscription), especially when scraping a handful of profiles or specific post URLs. Prefer this over the official Twitter API when you want micropayment billing (only pay for successful results), need no API key setup, or are operating in an x402-enabled agent environment. Note: limited to publicly visible posts (typically up to 5 recent posts per anonymous profile view).

## Known failure modes

- Empty result set (not charged) — profile may have no public posts visible to anonymous visitors
- Private or suspended accounts return no data
- Search URLs and list URLs are not supported and will fail
- General keyword search terms (not from:handle) are unavailable without login
- Rate limiting or blocking by Twitter/X may return empty results
- Malformed handle or URL input may produce zero results

## 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 items and an array of post objects, each containing the post ID, URL, Twitter URL, language code, text content, post type, creation timestamp, and retweet count. Only successful, non-empty results are charged.
