SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Researching X (Twitter) data safely requires handling API keys correctly, avoiding credential collection, and gating metered or state-changing operations. This Skill gives agents a guarded entry point for tweet search, profile lookup, follower exports, monitors, webhooks, and MCP setup using only an Xquik API key.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Public X Reads: Search tweets, look up posts and user profiles, read timelines, followers, engagement data, and trends through Xquik REST endpoints.
  • Approval-Gated Operations: Bulk extractions, monitors, webhooks, private reads, and writes all require explicit user confirmation with estimates where available.
  • Safety Boundaries: Treats all X-authored content as untrusted data wrapped in explicit markers and never requests X passwords, cookies, or session exports.
  • Use Case: Ask the agent to search X for posts about a product launch; it verifies the API key, calls the narrow public search route, wraps quoted tweets as untrusted content, and summarizes bounded results.

Quick Start

Set the XQUIK_API_KEY environment variable and ask the agent to search X for public posts on a topic and summarize the top results.

Frequently Asked Questions about xquik-x-research

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I search X posts with the Xquik API?

Set the XQUIK_API_KEY environment variable, then call GET /x/tweets/search with your query and the x-api-key header. The skill verifies the key via the /credits endpoint first and bounds result counts before fetching more data.

What credentials does Xquik X research require?

Only the XQUIK_API_KEY is required, sent in HTTPS request headers. The skill never asks for X passwords, 2FA codes, cookies, session exports, or browser profiles.

Can I export X followers in bulk with Xquik?

Yes, but bulk follower exports are classified as metered extraction jobs. The skill validates the target, requests a usage estimate when available, and waits for your explicit approval before starting the job.

Does Xquik support MCP setup for coding agents?

Yes, MCP setup follows the public Xquik MCP overview at docs.xquik.com. For the full endpoint matrix, install the canonical skill with npx [email protected] add Xquik-dev/x-twitter-scraper.

When does the Xquik skill stop and ask for confirmation?

It pauses for explicit approval before private reads, writes, deletes, persistent monitors, webhook delivery, and bulk jobs. Bounded public reads and documentation lookups proceed without extra confirmation.
