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 3 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api.x.com, developer.x.com, docs.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 query and retrieve specific posts from X (formerly Twitter) using search parameters. It allows agents to access real-time public discussions, trending topics, or historical data directly within their workflow.

When to use it

  • Investigating breaking news events by searching for keywords in real-time feeds.
  • Analyzing public sentiment regarding a specific product launch or brand mention.
  • Gathering background context on a topic by retrieving relevant historical tweets.
  • Monitoring competitor activity or industry trends without manual browsing.

Key capabilities

  • Executes search queries against the X platform API.
  • Returns structured results based on user-defined filters and keywords.
  • Integrates seamlessly into agent workflows to fetch social media data.

Example prompts

  • "Search for recent tweets discussing the latest advancements in quantum computing."
  • "Find posts from verified accounts mentioning our company's new feature release."
  • "Retrieve a list of trending hashtags related to the upcoming election."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has appropriate API access permissions, as X search functionality often requires authentication. Be mindful that results are limited to public content and may be subject to platform-specific rate limits or availability changes.
