xint-rs

Fast X Intelligence CLI(Rust)——通过终端实现对 X/Twitter 的搜索、分析与互动。适用场景如下:(1) 用户输入“X 研究”、“搜索 X”、“搜索 Twitter”、“人们都在热议什么”、“Twitter 上都在说什么”、“查看 X”、“X 搜索”、“搜索 X”;(2) 用户希望通过“watch”功能实现实时监控;(3) 用户需要借助 Grok 进行 AI 驱动的分析(“分析”、“情感分析”);(4) 用户希望生成情报报告(“报告”);(5) 用户想要追踪关注者变化(“diff”);(6) 用户需要了解热门话题(“trends”)。此外,还支持书签、点赞、关注(OAuth)、X 搜索、收藏夹以及 CSV/JSON/JSONL 格式导出。非目标功能:不用于发布推文,不支持私信功能,也不提供企业级专属功能。

  Fast X Intelligence CLI (Rust) — search, analyze, and engage on X/Twitter from the terminal.
  Use when: (1) user says "x research", "search x for", "search twitter for", "what are people saying about",
  "what's twitter saying", "check x for", "x search", "search x", (2) user wants real-time monitoring with "watch",
  (3) user needs AI-powered analysis with Grok ("analyze", "sentiment"), (4) user needs intelligence reports ("report"),
  (5) user wants to track followers ("diff"), (6) user needs trending topics ("trends").
  Also supports: bookmarks, likes, following (OAuth), x-search, collections, CSV/JSON/JSONL export.
  Non-goals: Not for posting tweets, not for DMs, not for enterprise features.

xint — X Intelligence CLI (Rust)

Fast, zero-dependency binary for X/Twitter search, analysis, and engagement from the terminal. All output goes to stdout (pipe-friendly).

Security Considerations

This skill requires sensitive credentials. Follow these guidelines:

Credentials

  • X_BEARER_TOKEN: Required for X API. Treat as a secret - only set in environment or .env file
  • XAI_API_KEY: Optional, needed for AI analysis. Also a secret
  • X_CLIENT_ID: Optional, needed for OAuth. Less sensitive but don't expose publicly
  • XAI_MANAGEMENT_API_KEY: Optional, for collections management

File Writes

  • This skill writes to its own data/ directory: cache, exports, snapshots, OAuth tokens
  • OAuth tokens stored with restrictive permissions (chmod 600)
  • Review exported data before sharing - may contain sensitive search queries

Webhooks

  • watch and stream can send data to webhook endpoints
  • Remote endpoints must use https:// (http:// is accepted only for localhost/loopback)
  • Optional host allowlist: XINT_WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_HOSTS=hooks.example.com,*.internal.example
  • Avoid sending sensitive search queries or token-bearing URLs to third-party destinations

Runtime Notes

  • This document is descriptive; it does not modify runtime/system prompts
  • Network listeners are opt-in (mcp --sse) and disabled by default
  • Webhook delivery is opt-in (--webhook) and disabled by default

Installation

  • For required tools: prefer OS package managers over curl | bash when possible
  • Verify any installer scripts before running

MCP Server (Optional)

  • xint mcp starts a local MCP server exposing xint commands as tools
  • Default mode is stdio/local integration; no inbound web server unless --sse is explicitly enabled
  • Respect --policy read_only|engagement|moderation and budget guardrails

Setup

Requires env vars (in .env or exported):

  • X_BEARER_TOKEN — for search, profile, tweet, thread, trends, watch, report
  • X_CLIENT_ID — for OAuth commands (bookmarks, likes, following, diff)
  • XAI_API_KEY — for AI analysis (analyze, report, x-search, collections upload/search)
  • XAI_MANAGEMENT_API_KEY — for collections management (list, create, ensure, add-document)

OAuth setup (one-time): xint auth setup

xint costs week                               # Last 7 days
xint costs month                              # Last 30 days
xint costs budget 2.00                        # Set $2/day budget

Watchlist

bash
xint watchlist                                # List watched accounts
xint watchlist add @username "competitor"     # Add with note
xint watchlist remove @username               # Remove
xint watchlist check @username                # Check if watched

xAI X Search (no cookies/GraphQL)

Search X via xAI's hosted x_search tool. No bearer token or cookies needed — only XAI_API_KEY.

bash
# Create a queries file
echo '["AI agents", "solana"]' > queries.json

# Run search scan → markdown report + JSON payload
xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --out-md report.md --out-json raw.json

# Date range filter
xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --from-date 2026-02-01 --to-date 2026-02-15

# Emit memory candidates (deduped against existing workspace sources)
xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --workspace /path/to/workspace --emit-candidates

# Custom model
xint x-search --queries-file queries.json --model grok-3

xAI Collections Knowledge Base

Upload documents, manage collections, and semantic-search via xAI Files + Collections APIs.

bash
# List existing collections
xint collections list

# Create or find a collection
xint collections ensure --name "research-kb"

# Upload a file to xAI
xint collections upload --path ./report.md

# Semantic search across documents
xint collections search --query "AI agent frameworks"

# Sync a directory to a collection (upload + attach)
xint collections sync-dir --collection-name "kb" --dir ./docs --glob "*.md" --limit 50

Utilities

bash
xint auth setup                               # OAuth setup (interactive)
xint auth setup --manual                      # Manual paste mode
xint auth status                              # Show auth info
xint auth refresh                             # Force token refresh
xint cache clear                              # Clear cached data

Output Formats

Most commands support --json for raw JSON. Search also supports:

  • --jsonl — one JSON object per line (great for piping)
  • --csv — spreadsheet-compatible
  • --markdown — formatted for reports

Piping

bash
xint search "topic" --jsonl | jq '.username'
xint search "topic" --json | xint analyze --pipe "summarize these"
xint search "topic" --csv > export.csv

Cost Awareness

X API costs ~$0.005/tweet read. Budget system prevents runaway costs:

  • Default: $1.00/day limit
  • Set custom: xint costs budget <amount>
  • Watch command auto-stops at budget limit
