xurl

Skill393k starsChanged 7 days agoMITView on GitHub

xurl CLI for authenticated X posts, replies, reads/search, DMs, media upload, followers, auth status, or raw v2 API calls.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 36 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 1

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Use xurl for X API work. Shortcut commands return JSON.

    line 33
  2. Distinctive:

    Use raw mode when shortcuts do not cover the endpoint.

    line 110

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 36 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

xurl

Use xurl for X API work. Shortcut commands return JSON; raw mode works for any v2 endpoint.

Auth

  • ~/.xurl holds tokens; check auth with xurl auth status instead of reading it.
  • Pass secrets to auth commands through the prompt, not inline, so they stay out of shell history.
  • --verbose prints auth headers into tool output.

Common shortcuts

xurl post "Hello world!"
xurl reply POST_ID "Nice."
xurl quote POST_ID "My take"
xurl delete POST_ID
xurl read POST_ID
xurl search "query" -n 20
xurl whoami
xurl user @handle
xurl timeline -n 20
xurl mentions -n 10
xurl like POST_ID
xurl unlike POST_ID
xurl repost POST_ID
xurl unrepost POST_ID
xurl bookmark POST_ID
xurl unbookmark POST_ID
xurl followers -n 20
xurl following -n 20
xurl follow @handle
xurl unfollow @handle
xurl block @handle
xurl unblock @handle
xurl mute @handle
xurl unmute @handle
xurl dm @handle "message"
xurl dms -n 10

POST_ID can be a full https://x.com/<user>/status/<id> URL.

Media

xurl media upload image.jpg
xurl media upload clip.mp4
xurl media status MEDIA_ID
xurl post "caption" --media-id MEDIA_ID

Videos may need processing; poll media status.

Auth/app management

xurl auth status
xurl auth apps list
xurl auth default
xurl auth default APP_NAME USERNAME
xurl auth apps remove APP_NAME

Per request:

xurl --app APP_NAME /2/users/me
xurl --auth oauth2 /2/users/me

Raw API

xurl /2/users/me
xurl -X POST /2/tweets -d '{"text":"Hello world!"}'
xurl '/2/tweets/search/recent?query=openclaw&max_results=10'

Use raw mode when shortcuts do not cover the endpoint. Keep payloads in temp files for complex JSON.

Output and errors

  • JSON stdout on success.
  • Non-zero exit on API/auth/network errors.
  • 401/403: auth, scope, or app mismatch; check xurl auth status.
  • 429: rate limited; back off.
  • Media upload failures: check file type/size and media processing status.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
