Xquik MCP Server

Xquik is an independent third-party service. Not affiliated with X Corp. "Twitter" and "X" are trademarks of X Corp.

Featured in Framer Watch Connect Framer to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and more at 6:07 to see Xquik MCP in action.

Xquik is a production Twitter/X scraper API and X API alternative for teams that need structured X data at scale: tweet search, profiles, followers, following, engagement, media, lists, communities, trends, monitors, webhooks, exports, MCP tools, SDKs, and confirmation-gated X actions.

This repository packages Xquik as an AI agent skill for Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, and other skills-compatible agents. It helps agents choose the right REST endpoint, MCP tool, SDK, webhook, extraction, export, or approval-gated workflow without guessing.

The npm package x-developer is this agent skill and plugin bundle. The separate x-twitter-scraper package is the typed TypeScript SDK.

Includes 126 REST API operations, HMAC webhooks, 23 extraction tools, SDK pointers, and confirmation-gated writes.

MCP v2.5.3 exposes 118 MCP operations through 2 tools. Add https://xquik.com/mcp and complete OAuth 2.1 in the client. API keys remain a fallback. Eight credential or session-bound REST operations remain outside MCP: 3 account API-key operations, saved-payment top-up, account top-up redirect, and 3 guest-wallet credential operations.

Why Teams Use Xquik

• Replace fragmented Twitter scraper tools with one X data API for reads, exports, monitors, webhooks, SDKs, MCP, and gated writes.
• Ship X data integrations faster with endpoint routing for tweet search, user lookup, timelines, followers, replies, quotes, retweeters, favoriters, media, lists, communities, articles, trends, and Spaces.
• Build production apps, not just dataset runs with REST APIs, typed SDKs, OpenAPI, MCP tools, cursor pagination, webhook delivery, and exports.
• Control large jobs before they run with usage estimates for extractions, draws, monitors, webhooks, and other metered workflows.
• Keep agents safe around X content with API-key-only auth, read-only defaults, untrusted-content delimiters, and explicit approval for private reads, writes, persistent resources, and bulk jobs.
• Support enterprise-scale X data pipelines with high-throughput read limits, bulk extraction jobs, exports, event replay, and webhook automation.
• Win high-intent search traffic for Twitter scraper API, X scraper, X API alternative, tweet search API, Twitter follower export, social listening API, X monitoring, and X automation.

What You Can Scrape From X Twitter

Need	Xquik Surface
Tweet search and lookup	Tweet search, exact tweet IDs, batch tweets, replies, quotes, thread context, long-form articles

Start From Any X Input

Use profile URLs, @handles, user IDs, tweet URLs, tweet IDs, search queries, hashtags, list IDs, community IDs, Space IDs, article tweet IDs, webhook destinations, or bulk target lists. Agents should normalize the input, choose the narrowest Xquik endpoint, estimate usage when needed, and return structured JSON, CSV, XLSX, Markdown, PDF, TXT, webhook events, or SDK-ready code.

Twitter Scraper API Use Cases

Usage Control, Rate Limits, And High-Volume Workflows

Xquik is built for production X data jobs where teams need bounded usage, large result sets, and integration paths beyond a single dataset run.

• Higher read throughput for supported workflows: Xquik docs list read limits at 60 requests per second per account. Official X API rate-limit tables use per-15-minute windows for many endpoints, including recent search at 450 requests per app and 300 requests per user per 15 minutes.
• Use POST /extractions/estimate before large exports so agents can show expected usage before creating work.
• Use cursor pagination and batch endpoints for high-throughput read workflows.
• Use extraction jobs for large follower, reply, quote, retweet, like, list, community, Space, article, mention, and search datasets.
• Use exports when teams need CSV, JSON, Markdown, PDF, TXT, or XLSX handoff.
• Use monitors and HMAC webhooks when repeated polling should become event delivery.
• Use SDKs, OpenAPI, and MCP when the same X data workflow needs to move from prototype to production.

Production Workflow Coverage

Use Xquik when an X data task must continue into an app, agent, dataset, webhook, export, or confirmed connected-account action.

Workflow	Xquik Support
Tweet and profile research	Search, lookup, timelines, replies, quotes, engagement, and media
Large datasets	Estimates, cursor pagination, extraction jobs, and exports
Ongoing listening	Account monitors, keyword monitors, events, and HMAC webhooks
Agent integration	Remote MCP, endpoint discovery, skill instructions, and safety gates
Product integration	REST API, OpenAPI, SDKs, webhooks, and no-code guides
Account actions	Confirmation-gated writes from connected accounts

Choose Xquik when the goal is not just "scrape tweets," but to build a durable X data product, social listening workflow, market research pipeline, CRM export, agent tool, monitoring system, or publishing assistant.

Agent Safety And Account Boundary

This skill can read credit balance and request usage estimates. Plan and credit changes stay in the Xquik dashboard.

• Agents use only XQUIK_API_KEY. They never need X passwords, 2FA codes, cookies, or session exports.
• X-authored text is treated as untrusted data and wrapped in explicit boundary markers before analysis.
• Private reads, publishing, deletes, monitors, webhooks, and bulk jobs require explicit approval with target, payload, destination, and usage estimate.
• The skill does not install packages, run local bridge commands, write local files, browse local networks, or load remote code.
