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 B, and why

xitter scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 4d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 203 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Xitter — X/Twitter via x-cli

Use x-cli for official X/Twitter API interactions from the terminal.

This skill is for:

  • posting tweets, replies, and quote tweets
  • searching tweets and reading timelines
  • looking up users, followers, and following
  • liking and retweeting
  • checking mentions and bookmarks

This skill intentionally does not vendor a separate CLI implementation into Hermes. Install and use upstream x-cli instead.

Important Cost / Access Note

X API access is not meaningfully free for most real usage. Expect to need paid or prepaid X developer access. If commands fail with permissions or quota errors, check your X developer plan first.

Install

Install upstream x-cli with uv:

uv tool install git+https://github.com/Infatoshi/x-cli.git

Upgrade later with:

uv tool upgrade x-cli

Verify:

x-cli --help

Credentials

You need these five values from the X Developer Portal:

  • X_API_KEY
  • X_API_SECRET
  • X_BEARER_TOKEN
  • X_ACCESS_TOKEN
  • X_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET

Get them from:

Why does X need 5 secrets?

Unfortunately, the official X API splits auth across both app-level and user-level credentials:

  • X_API_KEY + X_API_SECRET identify your app
  • X_BEARER_TOKEN is used for app-level read access
  • X_ACCESS_TOKEN + X_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET let the CLI act as your user account for writes and authenticated actions

So yes — it is a lot of secrets for one integration, but this is the stable official API path and is still preferable to cookie/session scraping.

Setup requirements in the portal:

  1. Create or open your app
  2. In user authentication settings, set permissions to Read and write
  3. Generate or regenerate the access token + access token secret after enabling write permissions
  4. Save all five values carefully — missing any one of them will usually produce confusing auth or permission errors

Note: upstream x-cli expects the full credential set to be present, so even if you mostly care about read-only commands, it is simplest to configure all five.

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.
