Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 x402-osint-username-reconnaissance-via-maigret-955367d2
```

Example prompt: Can you do a full username recon on 'soxoj' and tell me every website where that handle shows up — I want the list of matching profile URLs across as many platforms as possible.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need broad, automated username reconnaissance across 500+ websites in a single pay-per-call request. It is ideal for OSINT investigations, digital footprint analysis, or brand monitoring where you want exhaustive cross-platform coverage without managing maigret infrastructure yourself. Prefer it over manual searches or single-platform lookups when speed and coverage matter.

## Known failure modes

- Username not found on any site — returns found_count of 0 and empty found array
- Invalid or empty username parameter — request may fail or return no results
- Network timeouts when checking slow or unreachable sites — partial results possible
- Rate limiting or blocking by downstream sites — some sites may be skipped
- Payment not processed (x402 protocol failure) — endpoint returns 402 before executing search

## How this service works

Pay-per-call username reconnaissance across 500+ sites, powered by maigret.

## Output

A JSON object containing the queried username, the number of sites checked, the number of profiles found, and an array of matching hits — each hit includes the site name and the direct profile URL. An optional summary string may also be included.
