Skill Metadata

Name
xurl
Description
"xurl CLI for authenticated X posts, replies, reads/search, DMs, media upload, followers, auth status, or raw v2 API calls."

xurl

Use xurl for X API work. Shortcut commands return JSON; raw mode works for any v2 endpoint.

Secret safety

  • Never read, print, summarize, upload, or inspect ~/.xurl.
  • Never ask user to paste tokens/secrets into chat.
  • Do not run auth commands with inline secrets.
  • Do not use --verbose in agent sessions; it can expose auth headers.
  • Check auth with xurl auth status.

Media

xurl media upload image.jpg
xurl media upload clip.mp4
xurl media status MEDIA_ID
xurl post "caption" --media-id MEDIA_ID

Videos may need processing; poll media status.

Auth/app management

xurl auth status
xurl auth apps list
xurl auth default
xurl auth default APP_NAME USERNAME
xurl auth apps remove APP_NAME

Per request:

xurl --app APP_NAME /2/users/me
xurl --auth oauth2 /2/users/me

Raw API

xurl /2/users/me
xurl -X POST /2/tweets -d '{"text":"Hello world!"}'
xurl '/2/tweets/search/recent?query=openclaw&max_results=10'

Use raw mode when shortcuts do not cover the endpoint. Keep payloads in temp files for complex JSON.

Output and errors

  • JSON stdout on success.
  • Non-zero exit on API/auth/network errors.
  • 401/403: auth, scope, or app mismatch; check xurl auth status.
  • 429: rate limited; back off.
  • Media upload failures: check file type/size and media processing status.
