## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch a single tweet by its numeric ID without setting up Twitter Developer credentials, OAuth tokens, or a monthly API subscription. Ideal for lightweight, on-demand tweet lookups billed per call in USDC, especially in agent workflows that need occasional Twitter data without committing to a full API plan.

## Known failure modes

- Tweet not found or deleted — returns 404 or empty result
- Invalid tweet ID format — malformed ID yields an error response
- Rate limiting or payment failure — insufficient USDC balance or x402 payment rejection
- Private/protected account tweet — inaccessible content returns an error
- Network timeout from upstream Twitter scraping layer
