X/Twitter Reader
Read tweets, threads, and long-form articles from X/Twitter using the free FxTwitter API.
Usage
Run the script with one or more X/Twitter URLs:
bash skills/x-reader/read-tweet.sh "https://x.com/user/status/123456789"
Or multiple URLs:
bash skills/x-reader/read-tweet.sh "URL1" "URL2" "URL3"
What it returns
- Regular tweets: Full text, author, stats (likes/RTs/bookmarks), media URLs, reply context
- Long-form articles: Title, full article content extracted from blocks
- Threads: Pass each tweet URL separately
How it works
Uses the FxTwitter API (api.fxtwitter.com) — free, no auth required, no rate limit issues for normal use.
Auto-detection
When you see a URL matching x.com/*/status/* or twitter.com/*/status/*, use this skill automatically.
