## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability twitter-x-user-highlighted-posts-a5ce7d20
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the highlighted posts that @naval has pinned and featured on his X profile?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need the posts a user has curated and highlighted on their X profile — distinct from their general timeline, media posts, or replies. Ideal for understanding what a user considers their most important or representative content, for profiling influencers or brands, or for monitoring what an account is currently featuring publicly.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent username returns empty data array or 404-equivalent error
- Username with no highlights returns result_count of 0 and empty data array
- Rate limiting from upstream X API causes request failure
- Private or suspended accounts may return no data or an access error
- Malformed username (exceeds 15 chars or invalid characters) rejected by schema validation

## How this service works

Get the highlighted posts selected on an X user profile.

## Output

Returns an array of post objects that the user has selected as highlights on their X profile, along with a result_count integer, a queried_at ISO timestamp, and optionally an opaque cursor string for pagination. Each post item contains extended tweet-level data fields.
