SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you search X for public discussion, understand what route to use for querying, and safely publish posts through the correct authenticated path.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Route selection for search: Checks whether X search should use Grok subscription OAuth, an xAI API key, or a browser fallback.
  • Natural-language social search: Handles broad, intent-based queries, account filters, date ranges, reply-thread lookup, and deeper research when needed.
  • Posting with confirmation discipline: Supports user-authorized posting, reply restrictions, cost awareness, and clear safety boundaries before any write action.
  • Use case: If you need to find what people are saying about a launch, verify whether a specific account replied to someone, or draft a post for publication, this Skill guides the process end to end.

Quick Start

Ask the x-ops skill to check my X search route, search for recent discussion about my topic, and draft a post for my approval before publishing.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search X for public discussion using natural language queries?

To search X using natural language, this skill handles intent-based queries, account filters, date ranges, and reply-thread lookup end to end. It automatically determines the correct querying route for your social listening needs.

What is the best way to draft and publish posts on X safely?

The best way to publish posts on X safely is using a workflow with built-in guardrails. This skill supports user-authorized posting, applies reply restrictions, and requires explicit confirmation before executing any write action.

How does X search route selection work between Grok OAuth and xAI API?

X search route selection works by probing your status and automatically falling back from OAuth to the xAI API. It checks whether your Grok subscription OAuth, xAI API key, or browser fallback should handle the query.

Do I need an xAI API key to use X for social listening and research?

You do not strictly need an xAI API key for social listening because the skill checks your status and falls back to Grok subscription OAuth or a browser fallback. Route selection is automatic based on your current authentication.

Can I find if a specific X account replied to someone in a conversation thread?

Yes, you can find if a specific account replied by using the conversation-thread lookup feature. The skill filters research by account and handles reply-thread retrieval to verify interactions.

Why does my X posting workflow require confirmation before publishing?

Your X posting workflow requires confirmation to enforce safety boundaries, cost awareness, and reply restrictions. This discipline prevents unauthorized write actions before any user-authorized publication occurs.
