Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

twitter-reader scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (run.js), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Twitter / X Reader

Read tweets, timelines, and user profiles from Twitter/X without API keys.

What it does

This skill lets you read Twitter/X content using two free, no-auth public endpoints:

  • Twitter Syndication API — for user timelines (latest tweets)
  • FxTwitter API — for individual tweet details and user profiles

Commands

Read a user's recent tweets

node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --user <handle> [--count N]

Example: node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --user OpenAI --count 5

Read a specific tweet

node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --tweet <tweet_id_or_url>

Example: node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --tweet https://x.com/OpenAI/status/1889753204340265039 Or: node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --tweet 1889753204340265039

Get a user profile

node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --profile <handle>

Example: node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --profile elonmusk

Search tweets

For search, use the web_search tool with site:x.com <query>.

Output formats

  • Default: human-readable text with emojis
  • JSON: add --format json for structured output

Instructions

When the user asks to read tweets, check a Twitter/X timeline, or look up a Twitter user:

  1. For timelines: run node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --user <handle> --count <N>
  2. For specific tweets (URL or ID): run node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --tweet <id_or_url>
  3. For user profiles: run node skills/twitter-reader/run.js --profile <handle>
  4. For tweet search: use web_search with query site:x.com <search terms>

Always present the results in a clean, readable format. Include engagement metrics (likes, retweets) and dates.

Limitations

  • Timeline returns ~20 most recent tweets (Twitter syndication limit)
  • No access to replies, DMs, or private accounts
  • Rate limits may apply if called very frequently
  • Search is delegated to web_search (Bing grounding)

No API key required

This skill uses public endpoints that don't require authentication.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
