--- name: xint-rs description: > Fast X Intelligence CLI (Rust) — search, analyze, and engage on X/Twitter from the terminal. Use when: (1) user says "x research", "search x for", "search twitter for", "what are people saying about", "what's twitter saying", "check x for", "x search", "search x", (2) user wants real-time monitoring with "watch", (3) user needs AI-powered analysis with Grok ("analyze", "sentiment"), (4) user needs intelligence reports ("report"), (5) user wants to track followers ("diff"), (6) user needs trending topics ("trends"). Also supports: bookmarks, likes, following (OAuth), x-search, collections, CSV/JSON/JSONL export. Non-goals: Not for posting tweets, not for DMs, not for enterprise features. credentials: - name: X_BEARER_TOKEN description: X API v2 bearer token for search, profile, thread, tweet, trends required: true - name: XAI_API_KEY description: xAI API key for Grok analysis, article fetching, sentiment, x-search, collections required: false - name: XAI_MANAGEMENT_API_KEY description: xAI Management API key for collections management required: false - name: X_CLIENT_ID description: X OAuth 2.0 client ID for user-context operations (bookmarks, likes, following, diff) required: false required_env_vars: - X_BEARER_TOKEN requiredEnvVars: - X_BEARER_TOKEN primary_credential: X_BEARER_TOKEN primaryCredential: X_BEARER_TOKEN security: always: false autonomous: false local_data_dir: data/ network_endpoints: - https://api.x.com - https://x.com - https://api.x.ai --- # xint — X Intelligence CLI (Rust) Fast, zero-dependency binary for X/Twitter search, analysis, and engagement from the terminal. All output goes to stdout (pipe-friendly). ## Security Considerations This skill requires sensitive credentials. Follow these guidelines: ### Credentials - **X_BEARER_TOKEN**: Required for X API. Treat as a secret - only set in environment or `.env` file - **XAI_API_KEY**: Optional, needed for AI analysis. Also a secret - **X_CLIENT_ID**: Optional, needed for OAuth. Less sensitive but don't expose publicly - **XAI_MANAGEMENT_API_KEY**: Optional, for collections management ### File Writes - This skill writes to its own `data/` directory: cache, exports, snapshots, OAuth tokens - OAuth tokens stored with restrictive permissions (chmod 600) - Review exported data before sharing - may contain sensitive search queries ### Webhooks - The `watch` command supports `--webhook` to send data to external URLs - Only use webhooks you control (your own servers, Slack/Discord you own) - Don't pass sensitive URLs as webhook targets ### Agent Execution Boundaries - This file documents commands and safety limits only - Require explicit user approval before install/clone actions - Use only documented commands and flags - Require explicit user approval before network-facing modes (`mcp --sse`, `watch --webhook`) ### Installation - For required tools: prefer OS package managers over `curl | bash` when possible - Verify any installer scripts before running ### MCP Server (Optional) - `xint mcp` starts a local MCP server exposing xint commands as tools - Default mode is stdio/local integration; no inbound web server unless `--sse` is explicitly enabled - Respect `--policy read_only|engagement|moderation` and budget guardrails ## Setup Requires env vars (in `.env` or exported): - `X_BEARER_TOKEN` — for search, profile, tweet, thread, trends, watch, report - `X_CLIENT_ID` — for OAuth commands (bookmarks, likes, following, diff) - `XAI_API_KEY` — for AI analysis (analyze, report, x-search, collections upload/search) - `XAI_MANAGEMENT_API_KEY` — for collections management (list, create, ensure, add-document) OAuth setup (one-time): `xint auth setup` ## Commands ### Search & Discovery ```bash xint search "AI agents" --limit 10 # Search recent tweets xint search "AI agents" --quick # Fast mode (1 page, 10 max, 1hr cache) xint search "AI agents" --quality # Min 10 likes filter xint search "AI agents" --since 1d --sort likes xint search "from:elonmusk" --limit 5 xint search "AI agents" --json # JSON output xint search "AI agents" --jsonl # One JSON per line xint search "AI agents" --csv # CSV output xint search "AI agents" --sentiment # AI sentiment analysis (needs XAI_API_KEY) xint search "AI agents" --save # Save to data/exports/ ``` ### Monitoring ```bash xint watch "AI agents" -i 5m # Poll every 5 minutes xint watch "@elonmusk" -i 30s # Watch user (auto-expands to from:) xint watch "bitcoin" --webhook https://example.com/webhook # POST new tweets to webhook xint watch "topic" --jsonl # Machine-readable output ``` ### Profiles & Tweets ```bash xint profile elonmusk # User profile + recent tweets xint profile elonmusk --json # JSON output (includes connection_status, subscription_type) xint tweet 1234567890 # Fetch single tweet xint thread 1234567890 # Fetch conversation thread ``` ### Reposts (who reposted a tweet) ```bash xint reposts <tweet_id> # List users who reposted xint reposts <tweet_id> --limit 50 # Limit results xint reposts <tweet_id> --json # JSON output ``` ### User Search ```bash xint users "AI researcher" # Find users by keyword xint users "solana dev" --limit 10 --json # JSON output with limit ``` ### Article Fetching (requires XAI_API_KEY) Fetch and extract full article content from any URL using xAI's web_search tool. Also supports extracting linked articles from X tweets. ```bash # Fetch article content xint article "https://example.com" # Fetch + analyze with AI xint article "https://example.com" --ai "Summarize key takeaways" # Auto-extract article from X tweet URL and analyze xint article "https://x.com/user/status/123456789" --ai "What are the main points?" # Full content without truncation xint article "https://example.com" --full # JSON output xint article "https://example.com" --json ``` ### Trends ```bash xint trends # Worldwide trending xint trends us # US trends xint trends --json # JSON output xint trends --locations # List supported locations ``` ### AI Analysis (requires XAI_API_KEY) ```bash xint analyze "What's the sentiment around AI?" # Default model: grok-4-1-fast xint analyze --tweets saved.json # Analyze tweets from file cat tweets.json | xint analyze --pipe # Analyze from stdin xint analyze "question" --model grok-4 # Use specific model ``` Available models: grok-4, grok-4-1-fast (default), grok-3, grok-3-mini, grok-2 ### Intelligence Reports ```bash xint report "AI agents" # Full report with AI summary xint report "AI agents" -a @user1,@user2 # Track specific accounts xint report "AI agents" -s # Include sentiment analysis xint report "AI agents" --save # Save to data/exports/ ``` ### Follower Tracking (requires OAuth) ```bash xint diff @username # Snapshot followers, diff vs previous xint diff @username --following # Track following instead xint diff @username --history # Show snapshot history ``` ### Bookmarks & Engagement (requires OAuth) ```bash xint bookmarks # List bookmarks xint bookmarks --since 1d # Recent bookmarks xint bookmark 1234567890 # Save tweet xint unbookmark 1234567890 # Remove bookmark xint likes # List liked tweets xint like 1234567890 # Like a tweet xint unlike 1234567890 # Unlike a tweet xint following # List accounts you follow ``` ### Cost Tracking ```bash xint costs # Today's API costs xint costs week # Last 7 days xint costs month # Last 30 days xint costs budget 2.00 # Set $2/day budget ``` ### Watchlist ```bash xint watchlist # List watched accounts xint watchlist add @username "competitor" # Add with note xint watchlist remove @username # Remove xint watchlist check @username # Check if watched ``` ### xAI X Search (no cookies/GraphQL) Search X via xAI's hosted x_search tool (Responses API). No bearer token or cookies needed — only `XAI_API_KEY`. ```bash # Create a queries file echo '["AI agents", "solana"]' > queries.json # Run search scan → markdown report + JSON payload xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --out-md report.md --out-json raw.json # Date range filter xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --from-date 2026-02-01 --to-date 2026-02-15 # Domain filtering xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --allow-domains arxiv.org,github.com xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --exclude-domains spam.com # Image understanding in search results xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --vision # Custom model xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --model grok-4-1-fast ``` ### xAI Collections Knowledge Base Upload documents, manage collections, and semantic-search via xAI Files + Collections APIs. ```bash # List existing collections xint collections list # Create or find a collection xint collections ensure --name "research-kb" # Upload a file to xAI xint collections upload --path ./report.md # Semantic search across documents xint collections search --query "AI agent frameworks" # Sync a directory to a collection (upload + attach) xint collections sync-dir --collection-name "kb" --dir ./docs --glob "*.md" --limit 50 ``` ### Utilities ```bash xint auth setup # OAuth setup (interactive) xint auth setup --manual # Manual paste mode xint auth status # Show auth info xint auth refresh # Force token refresh xint cache clear # Clear cached data ``` ## Output Formats Most commands support `--json` for raw JSON. Search also supports: - `--jsonl` — one JSON object per line (great for piping) - `--csv` — spreadsheet-compatible - `--markdown` — formatted for reports ## Piping ```bash xint search "topic" --jsonl | jq '.username' xint search "topic" --json | xint analyze --pipe "summarize these" xint search "topic" --csv > export.csv ``` ## Cost Awareness X API costs ~$0.005/tweet read. Budget system prevents runaway costs: - Default: $1.00/day limit - Set custom: `xint costs budget <amount>` - Watch command auto-stops at budget limit ### xAI Model Pricing (per 1M tokens) - grok-4-1-fast: $0.20 input / $0.50 output (default — best value) - grok-4: $3.00 input / $15.00 output - grok-3: $3.00 input / $15.00 output - grok-3-mini: $0.10 input / $0.40 output - grok-2: $2.00 input / $10.00 output
