About

xbird — Twitter/X for AI Agents

35 MCP tools for Twitter/X with x402 micropayments. Pure Node.js — no Bun required.

Zero config — auto-detects your browser session and generates a wallet. No API keys, no developer account.

When to Use

  • Running inside Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf
  • Need direct MCP tool access to Twitter/X
  • Works with Node.js >= 18 — no Bun required

Don't use when: Building backend services or autonomous agents (use REST x402 instead), or operating on Virtuals marketplace (use ACP instead).

Setup

Two runtime options:

Bun (recommended) — zero config

claude mcp add xbird -- bunx @checkra1n/xbird

Auto-detects cookies from Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari. Just log in to x.com — done.

Node.js — one-time login

claude mcp add xbird -- npx @checkra1n/xbird
npx @checkra1n/xbird login  # paste auth_token + ct0 from x.com DevTools

A payment wallet is generated automatically on first run.

Full tool list: see tools.md.

Common Workflows

Post tweet with image: upload_media (get mediaId) → post_tweet with mediaIds: [""]

Get someone's tweets: get_user (get numeric userId) → get_user_tweets with userId

Search and engage: search_tweets with query → like_tweet or retweet results

Update profile: update_profile_image + update_profile with new bio

Quick Reference

Handles:    work with or without @ prefix
Pagination: most tools accept cursor from previous response
Media:      always upload first, then attach mediaId to tweet
Pricing:    Read $0.001 | Search $0.005 | Bulk/Write $0.01 | Media $0.05

Common Mistakes

| Mistake | Fix | |---------|-----| | Using handle for bulk tools | get_user_tweets, get_followers, etc. need numeric userId. Call get_user first. | | Posting thread with 1 tweet | post_thread requires minimum 2 tweets. Use post_tweet for single tweet. | | Media not attached | Upload returns mediaId — must pass it in mediaIds array to post_tweet. | | Rate limit error | Twitter rate limit. Wait 1-2 minutes, retry. | | Cookies not detected | Run npx @checkra1n/xbird login and paste cookies manually. Auto-detect only works with Bun, not npx. |
