Bird CLI

Quick Start

• •Prefer explicit cookie source and browser profile to avoid Safari auto-detection.
• •If multiple accounts exist, pass --chrome-profile and --username explicitly.
• •Defaults can be set in ~/.config/skills/config.json under bird (chrome_profile, username).

Task: List unanswered mentions (most recent first)

• •Run scripts/unanswered_mentions.py with the target profile.
• •If auto-detection fails, pass --username.
• •The script checks bird replies <tweet> for a reply authored by the target username (heuristic).

Examples:

python scripts/unanswered_mentions.py --cookie-source chrome --chrome-profile "<Profile>" --json-out /tmp/bird-unanswered.json --numbered

python scripts/unanswered_mentions.py --cookie-source chrome --chrome-profile "<Profile>" --show-text --limit 10

Output format:

<createdAt> | @author | https://x.com/<author>/status/<id>
