## 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-user-following-list-a775c7df -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the list of accounts that @elonmusk follows on Twitter — get me the first 200 and include the cursor so I can page through the rest?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve the following list of any public Twitter/X account, especially when you need pagination support for accounts with large following counts. Prefer this over scraping or manual lookup when you need structured data with metadata and cursor-based pagination.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent user ref returns empty data or error
- Rate limiting from the underlying Twitter API causing request failures
- Invalid cursor value causing pagination errors
- page_size outside the 20-200 range causing validation errors
- Private/protected accounts may not expose following list
- API payment failure for x402 protocol

## How this service works

## Output

Returns a paginated array of user objects representing accounts the specified user follows, along with metadata including total result count, a next_cursor string for fetching the next page, and a has_next_page boolean indicating whether more results exist.
