Twitter/X Automation via Rube MCP

Automate Twitter/X operations through Composio's Twitter toolkit via Rube MCP.

Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/twitter

Prerequisites

  • Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
  • Active Twitter connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit twitter
  • Always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to get current tool schemas

Setup

Get Rube MCP: Add https://rube.app/mcp as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.

  1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds
  2. Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit twitter
  3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Twitter OAuth
  4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Core Workflows

1. Create and Manage Posts

When to use: User wants to create, delete, or look up tweets/posts

Tool sequence:

  1. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_ME - Get authenticated user info [Prerequisite]
  2. TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIA / TWITTER_UPLOAD_LARGE_MEDIA - Upload media [Optional]
  3. TWITTER_CREATION_OF_A_POST - Create a new post [Required]
  4. TWITTER_POST_LOOKUP_BY_POST_ID - Look up a specific post [Optional]
  5. TWITTER_POST_DELETE_BY_POST_ID - Delete a post [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • text: Post text content (max 280 weighted characters)
  • media__media_ids: Array of media ID strings for attachments
  • reply__in_reply_to_tweet_id: Tweet ID to reply to
  • quote_tweet_id: Tweet ID to quote
  • id: Post ID for lookup/delete

Pitfalls:

  • Post text is limited to 280 weighted characters; some characters count as more than one
  • Posting is NOT idempotent; retrying on timeout will create duplicate posts
  • Media IDs must be numeric strings, not integers
  • UPLOAD_LARGE_MEDIA is for videos/GIFs; UPLOAD_MEDIA for images
  • Always call USER_LOOKUP_ME first to get the authenticated user's ID

2. Search Posts

When to use: User wants to find tweets matching specific criteria

Tool sequence:

  1. TWITTER_RECENT_SEARCH - Search recent tweets (last 7 days) [Required]
  2. TWITTER_FULL_ARCHIVE_SEARCH - Search full archive (Academic access) [Optional]
  3. TWITTER_RECENT_SEARCH_COUNTS - Get tweet count matching query [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • query: Search query using Twitter search operators
  • max_results: Results per page (10-100)
  • next_token: Pagination token
  • start_time/end_time: ISO 8601 time range
  • tweet__fields: Comma-separated fields to include
  • expansions: Related objects to expand

Pitfalls:

  • RECENT_SEARCH covers only the last 7 days; use FULL_ARCHIVE_SEARCH for older tweets
  • FULL_ARCHIVE_SEARCH requires Academic Research or Enterprise access
  • Query operators: from:username, to:username, is:retweet, has:media, -is:retweet
  • Empty results return meta.result_count: 0 with no data field
  • Rate limits vary by endpoint and access level; check response headers

3. Look Up Users

When to use: User wants to find or inspect Twitter user profiles

Tool sequence:

  1. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_ME - Get authenticated user [Optional]
  2. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_BY_USERNAME - Look up by username [Optional]
  3. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_BY_ID - Look up by user ID [Optional]
  4. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_BY_IDS - Batch look up multiple users [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • username: Twitter handle without @ prefix
  • id: Numeric user ID string
  • ids: Comma-separated user IDs for batch lookup
  • user__fields: Fields to return (description, public_metrics, etc.)

Pitfalls:

  • Usernames are case-insensitive but must not include the @ prefix
  • User IDs are numeric strings, not integers
  • Suspended or deleted accounts return errors, not empty results
  • LOOKUP_BY_IDS accepts max 100 IDs per request

4. Manage Bookmarks

When to use: User wants to save, view, or remove bookmarked tweets

Tool sequence:

  1. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_ME - Get authenticated user ID [Prerequisite]

Key parameters:

  • id: User ID (from USER_LOOKUP_ME) for listing bookmarks
  • tweet_id: Tweet ID to bookmark or unbookmark
  • max_results: Results per page
  • pagination_token: Token for next page

Pitfalls:

  • Bookmarks require the authenticated user's ID, not username
  • Bookmarks are private; only the authenticated user can see their own
  • Pagination uses pagination_token, not next_token

Tool sequence:

  1. TWITTER_USER_LOOKUP_ME - Get authenticated user ID [Prerequisite]
