Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 2 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 4 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api.x.com, developer.x.com, docs.x.com, x.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to retrieve and analyze data from X (formerly Twitter) by executing custom prompts. It allows agents to fetch specific tweets, search for trends, or extract information based on defined criteria directly within the agent's workflow.

When to use it

  • Gathering real-time public sentiment or news updates from specific hashtags or keywords.
  • Extracting user mentions or replies related to a particular brand or topic.
  • Fetching historical tweet data for analysis or reporting purposes.
  • Monitoring trending topics within specific niches or industries on the platform.

Key capabilities

  • Executes custom prompts to query X data dynamically.
  • Retrieves specific tweets based on user-defined parameters.
  • Processes and returns structured information from social media posts.

Example prompts

  • "Fetch the top 5 most recent tweets discussing #AIethics."
  • "Retrieve all replies to my latest post about the new product launch."
  • "Search for tweets containing 'quantum computing' posted in the last hour."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has appropriate permissions or API access configured to interact with X, as direct data fetching may be restricted without proper authentication. Be mindful of rate limits imposed by the platform when executing multiple fetch requests rapidly.
