Description
x-api is an agent skill from the ECC collection by affaan-m, listed on skills.sh. It is an integration guide for the X, formerly Twitter, API. It covers posting tweets and threads, reading timelines, mentions and user data, searching for content, trends and conversations, and tracking analytics and engagement. It includes OAuth authentication patterns, rate limits and platform-native practice. The listing warns that X API endpoints, access tiers, quotas and write permissions change often, so the agent should check current developer documentation and the account's access before quoting limits or building a posting or search flow. It applies when a person wants to post to X programmatically, read a timeline, search, build an X integration or bot, or track engagement, or when they say post to X, tweet or use the X or Twitter API. A skill is a SKILL.md file of instructions that an AI agent loads when a task calls for it. It is free and open source, and the skills.sh listing shows a Snyk warning, with Gen Agent Trust Hub and Socket passing.…
