TweetClaw

Overview

TweetClaw provides full X/Twitter automation via the Xquik REST API. It covers 121 endpoints across 12 categories: tweet operations, user lookups, search, bulk extractions (23 tools), giveaway draws, account monitoring, webhook delivery, AI composition, style analysis, drafts, write actions, and account management.

Two MCP tools are available via the hosted server at xquik.com/mcp (not bundled with this plugin). See the MCP setup section in Resources for configuration instructions.

Prerequisites

• An API key from xquik.com (starts with xq_)

Output

All endpoints return JSON. Successful responses include the requested data. Errors return {"error": "error_code"}.

Error Handling

• Retry only 429 and 5xx (max 3 retries, exponential backoff). Never retry other 4xx.
• Rate limits are per method tier: Read (120/60s), Write (30/60s), Delete (15/60s).
• Follow/DM endpoints require numeric user IDs, not usernames. Look up the user first via GET /x/users/{username}.
• Extraction IDs are strings (bigints that overflow JavaScript Number). Always treat as strings.
• Webhook secrets are shown only once at creation. Store immediately.
• Cursors are opaque. Never decode or construct nextCursor values.
• Always estimate before extracting to avoid 402 errors mid-extraction.
