SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Accessing Twitter/X data programmatically normally requires paid API tiers or heavy third-party libraries. This Skill lets you read timelines, bookmarks, search results, and user profiles — and perform write actions like posting or liking — using only Python's standard library and your browser cookies. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Timeline & Content Reading: Fetch home For-You/Following feeds, bookmarks (including bookmark folders), user tweets, user likes, tweet details with reply threads, List timelines, and followers/following lists. - Write Operations: Post tweets and replies, delete tweets, like/unlike, retweet/unretweet, and bookmark/unbookmark directly from the CLI or Python API. - Zero-Dependency Design: Pure standard library (urllib, argparse, dataclasses) with UV project config, plus a three-level QueryId resolution system (cache → hardcoded fallbacks → live JS bundle scan) that auto-recovers when X rotates API query IDs. - Use Case: Ask the assistant to pull your latest 50 bookmarks as JSON, then summarize the top threads — cookies are fetched automatically via the browser_use tool in the Minis environment. ## Quick Start Use the twitter-x-hub skill to fetch my home timeline and show the 20 most recent tweets with their like and retweet counts.

Frequently Asked Questions about twitter-x-hub

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fetch my Twitter timeline with Python without the official API?▼

Use the internal GraphQL API authenticated with your auth_token and ct0 browser cookies. Run 'uv run python -m scripts.cli feed --max 30 --json' after exporting TWITTER_AUTH_TOKEN and TWITTER_CT0 environment variables.

How do I get Twitter auth_token and ct0 cookies?▼

In the Minis environment, use the browser_use tool to navigate to x.com and call get_cookies, which saves them to an environment file without exposing values. Alternatively, copy them manually from browser DevTools under Application > Cookies > x.com.

Why does Twitter search return 404 with this client?▼

X now requires an x-client-transaction-id header for SearchTimeline, generated by the xclienttransaction C extension that cannot install on iSH/Alpine. The workaround is using browser_use to open the search page and extract results from the DOM.

What happens when Twitter changes its GraphQL query IDs?▼

The client resolves query IDs through three levels: in-memory cache, hardcoded fallback IDs, then live lookup from the fa0311/twitter-openapi repository or regex scanning of x.com JS bundles. A 404 response automatically invalidates the cache and triggers re-resolution.

Is it safe to post tweets programmatically with cookie auth?▼

Write operations work but carry higher account risk than reads. The client adds 1.5–4 second random delays before writes, and the documentation recommends using a dedicated alt account to avoid risk flags on your main account.
