## 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 x-twitter-profile-lookup-7ca79f6d
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the full public profile for the X account @elonmusk — I need the follower count, bio, user ID, verified status, and join date?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick, structured public profile data for a specific X/Twitter handle without managing Twitter API credentials or OAuth flows. It is ideal for lead enrichment, audience sizing, handle-to-ID resolution, and account verification in agent pipelines. Prefer it over direct Twitter API calls when you want a zero-auth, pay-per-use lookup at low cost ($0.02 per call).

## Known failure modes

- Username does not exist or has been suspended — returns an error or empty result
- Username parameter missing — returns a 400 or validation error
- Private/protected account — public fields may be limited or unavailable
- Rate limiting or upstream X/Twitter access issues — may return 429 or 5xx
- Typo in username — silently returns wrong account or not-found error
