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

FAQPage Schema
How do I fetch tweets and timelines without using the official X API?▼

You can fetch tweets without the official X API by using FxTwitter for single tweets and Nitter or Playwright backends for timelines. This enables zero-key access for research, automation, and agent usage.

Can I retrieve WeChat, Weibo, or Bilibili content using a web-scraping tool?▼

Yes, the scope includes WeChat, Weibo, Bilibili, and CSDN content retrieval alongside X/Twitter fetching. It provides structured, agent-friendly JSON output for cross-platform content extraction.

Do I need to install Playwright to fetch single tweets?▼

No, you do not need Playwright for single tweets because zero-dependency basics are supported via FxTwitter. Playwright serves as an optional browser-based backend for fetching timelines and replies.

What is the best way to track X/Twitter account growth and detect burst activity?▼

The X-Tracker growth monitoring module tracks account growth and detects burst activity. It provides structured JSON output to automate growth tracking without requiring authentication or API keys.

Why does fetching Twitter replies return unstructured data instead of JSON?▼

Fetching Twitter replies should return structured, agent-friendly JSON output by default when using the Nitter or Playwright backends. If data is unstructured, verify your backend configuration.
