What is fxtwitter?
The fxtwitter skill is a powerful integration designed for AI agents to programmatically retrieve data from X (formerly Twitter). By utilizing the api.fxtwitter.com endpoint, it allows developers and agents to bypass the complexities of official API keys or fragile browser automation. As part of a robust set of Openclaw Skills, this tool provides a direct path to structured social media content, ensuring your workflows can process social links with high reliability and speed.
This skill is particularly valuable for developers building research tools, social monitors, or content aggregators. It translates standard user-provided URLs into rich JSON objects, making it a fundamental component for any agent requiring real-time social media context within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem.
fxtwitter Use Cases
- Summarizing long-form posts or threads shared via X.com or Twitter.com links.
- Extracting high-resolution media URLs, including photos and videos, for content curation.
- Monitoring social engagement metrics like likes, retweets, and replies for data analysis.
- Automated archiving of social media posts into personal knowledge management systems.
How fxtwitter Works
- The skill identifies an incoming X.com or twitter.com URL from the user input.
- It extracts the unique status ID from the URL structure (e.g., 1234567890).
- An HTTP GET request is dispatched to the api.fxtwitter.com endpoint using the extracted ID.
- The resulting JSON payload is parsed to isolate the tweet object, containing text, author info, and media assets.
- The data is formatted and presented to the AI agent or end-user according to the specified output requirements.
fxtwitter Setup
To use this within your Openclaw Skills environment, ensure your agent has network access to the fxtwitter API. No authentication headers or tokens are required. You can verify the data retrieval using a simple CLI command:
curl -s "https://api.fxtwitter.com/1857139041285329115" | jq '.tweet'
