Follow X user

Follow an X user. Returns handle, was_following, is_following, status. Already-following accounts are reported rather than re-followed; errors on missing or suspended accounts.

Input

handle required

X handle without the leading @ (e.g. 'jaminball'). The follow takes effect immediately and is visible to the target account and to anyone viewing your following list, so confirm the exact handle with the user before running rather than inferring it from an earlier or unrelated message.

Output

handle required
is_following required

Follow-state read back after the action — the page's own state indicator, expected true.

was_following required

already_present signal: follow state observed on arrival.

verified_on_page required

true if the page was reloaded and re-inspected after the action, confirming the follow is actually visible/present

status optional

followed = the button flipped to Following/Unfollow after our click; already_following = it was already in that state.

account_used optional

handle of the logged-in account that performed the action, read from the account switcher UI (not assumed from input)
