Tweet insights

- object
  - `insights` TweetInsights, required: Engagement insights of 1 tweet. Engagements are likes, replies, reposts and quotes. A rate is null when nothing divides it, such as a tweet without views.

    - `authorId` string, nullable, required: ID of the author.
    - `authorUserName` string, nullable, required: Username of the author.
    - `createdAt` string, date-time, nullable, required: When the tweet went up.
    - `ageHours` number, nullable, required: Hours since the tweet went up.

      - `likes` number, required: Likes.
      - `replies` number, required: Replies.

## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid input. A value past its maxLength gets this answer, & the message names the field & its limit.
- `401`: Non-MPP paid reads require Bearer authentication. Without credentials, the answer offers a guest checkout but does not create it. Invalid credentials return a plain error. Confirm before using any offered action.
- `402`: Payment required. MPP reads include `WWW-Authenticate`. Authenticated reads include balances, plus checkout when the key can open it. A key that reads only gets the account page instead. A failed request never creates checkout. A caller on a plan gets top-up only, plus `credits_renew_at` when the plan renews. Guest keys offer top-up.
- `404`: X shows no post with this ID. `reason` says why when X's answer named it. It is `deleted` with the message "The author deleted this post.", `author_suspended` with "X suspended this post's author.", or `protected` with "This post's author limits who can see it." Without `reason`, X named no cause, and the message is "Tweet not found. Check the tweet ID."
- `424`: Dependency unavailable, unauthorized, or limited. Default v1 uses 502. Best-practice responses use 424 for transparent dependency failures. Search answers 424 `search_unavailable` when X fails the query itself, or when its filters matched none of the last 3,000 posts read. The message says how far back the search read.
- `429`: Too many requests right now. Each user gets 500 reads a second. Each minute allows 120 writes & 60 deletes. `x_api_rate_limited` means X limits this read for now. Neither answer costs anything. Wait for the seconds in `Retry-After`, then retry.
- `500`: Unexpected error.
- `502`: Dependency unavailable, unauthorized, or limited. Default v1 uses 502. Best-practice responses use 424 for transparent dependency failures. Search answers 424 `search_unavailable` when X fails the query itself, or when its filters matched none of the last 3,000 posts read. The message says how far back the search read.
- `503`: Retry x_api_unavailable after Retry-After. With X-Xquik-Busy, retry until your deadline.
- `default`: Unexpected error.
