## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to discover or search Twitter/X user accounts without setting up OAuth credentials or a Twitter developer account. It is ideal for agent workflows that need on-demand, pay-per-call access to Twitter user search at low cost ($0.005/call), especially when you don't want to manage API subscriptions or rate limit tiers.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if the query matches no known users
- Rate limiting or payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 payment is rejected
- Stale or incomplete profile data if the scraping layer hasn't recently indexed the user
- Query too broad returning irrelevant accounts
- Service unavailability if Twitter/X changes its underlying structure
