What it does

X API & Twitter scraper skill for AI coding agents. Builds integrations with the Xquik REST API, MCP server & webhooks: tweet search, user lookup, follower extraction, engagement metrics, giveaway contest draws, trending topics, account monitoring, reply/retweet/quote extraction, community & Space data, mutual follow checks. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Windsurf & 40+ agents.

Installed, it changes the agent in these ways.

What this skill changes about the agent is not written down here yet. The listing was collected from its source, and the description is in its own SKILL.md.

The skill itself

This is the whole product. A skill is instructions the model reads, so there is nothing behind the listing you cannot see first — the front matter loads with every session, and the body below it loads when the skill triggers.

10## Quick Reference
11
12| | |
13|---|---|
14| **Base URL** | https://xquik.com/api/v1 |
15| **Auth** | x-api-key: xq_... header (64 hex chars after xq_ prefix) |
16| **MCP endpoint** | https://xquik.com/mcp (StreamableHTTP, same API key) |
17| **Rate limits** | 10 req/s sustained, 20 burst (API); 60 req/s sustained, 100 burst (general) |
18| **Pricing** | $20/month base (1 monitor included), $5/month per extra monitor |
19| **Quota** | Monthly usage cap, hard limit, no overage. 402 when exhausted. |
20| **Docs** | [docs.xquik.com](https://docs.xquik.com) |
21
22## Authentication
23
24Every request requires an API key via the x-api-key header. Keys start with xq_ and are generated from the [Xquik dashboard](https://xquik.com). The key is shown only once at creation; store it securely.
25
26```javascript
27const API_KEY = "xq_YOUR_KEY_HERE";
28const BASE = "https://xquik.com/api/v1";
29const headers = { "x-api-key": API_KEY, "Content-Type": "application/json" };
30```

72### Extraction Workflow
73
74```javascript
75// 1. Estimate cost
76const estimate = await xquikFetch("/extractions/estimate", {
77 method: "POST",
78 body: JSON.stringify({ toolType: "follower_explorer", targetUsername: "elonmusk" }),
79});
80
81if (!estimate.allowed) return;
82
83// 2. Create extraction job
84const job = await xquikFetch("/extractions", {
85 method: "POST",
86 body: JSON.stringify({ toolType: "follower_explorer", targetUsername: "elonmusk" }),
87});
88
89// 3. Retrieve paginated results (up to 1,000 per page)
90const page = await xquikFetch(/extractions/${job.id});
91// page.results: [{ xUserId, xUsername, xDisplayName, xFollowersCount, xVerified, xProfileImageUrl }]
92
93// 4. Export as CSV/XLSX/Markdown (50,000 row limit)
94const csvResponse = await fetch(${BASE}/extractions/${job.id}/export?format=csv, { headers });
95```
96
97## Giveaway Draws
98
99Run transparent giveaway draws from tweet replies with configurable filters:
100
101```javascript
102const draw = await xquikFetch("/draws", {
103 method: "POST",
104 body: JSON.stringify({
105 tweetUrl: "https://x.com/user/status/1893456789012345678",
106 winnerCount: 3,
107 backupCount: 2,
108 uniqueAuthorsOnly: true,
109 mustRetweet: true,
110 mustFollowUsername: "user",
111 filterMinFollowers: 50,
112 requiredHashtags: ["#giveaway"],
113 }),
114});
115
116const details = await xquikFetch(/draws/${draw.id});
117// details.winners: [{ position, authorUsername, tweetId, isBackup }]
118```
119
120## Error Handling & Retry
121
122All errors return { "error": "error_code" }. Retry only 429 and 5xx (max 3 attempts, exponential backoff). Never retry 4xx except 429. Key codes:
123
124| Status | Meaning |
125|--------|---------|
126| 400 | Invalid input -- fix the request |
127| 401 | Bad API key |
128| 402 | No subscription or quota exhausted |
129| 404 | Resource not found |
130| 429 | Rate limited -- respect Retry-After header |
131
132## MCP Server Setup (Claude Code)
133
134Add to .mcp.json in your project root:
135
136```json
137{
138 "mcpServers": {
139 "xquik": {
140 "type": "streamable-http",
141 "url": "https://xquik.com/mcp",
142 "headers": {
143 "x-api-key": "xq_YOUR_KEY_HERE"
144 }
145 }
146 }
147}
148```
149
150The MCP server exposes 22 tools covering all API capabilities. Supported platforms: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Codex CLI, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, OpenCode.
151
152## Workflow Patterns
153
154- **Real-time alerts:** add-monitor -> add-webhook -> test-webhook
155- **Giveaway:** get-account (check budget) -> run-draw
156- **Bulk extraction:** estimate-extraction -> run-extraction -> get-extraction
157- **Tweet analysis:** lookup-tweet -> run-extraction with thread_extractor
158- **User research:** get-user-info -> search-tweets from:username -> lookup-tweet

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈110
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
1,690
on trigger
The instruction body, read only when the skill fires.
0.90%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 9% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

1.8k tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Middling. Fine to keep on in a project where you use it weekly, worth unloading in one where you never do.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been published here. It is in the skill’s own SKILL.md, which its author has not sent to the marketplace yet.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

It writes no files and reaches no network. All it changes is how the model reasons and writes.

What it asks for
Writes filesno
Network accessno

Read from the allowed-tools line of this skill’s own SKILL.md. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

1 file, 7.2 kB on disk. A bundle is text throughout: the instructions the model reads, plus the templates it fills in.

  • SKILL.md7.2 kB
What is not in it

No dependencies and nothing executable: a skill is text the agent reads, so the bundle is 1 file you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

Writes to .claude/skills/xquik-api-integration/ in the current project. Add --global to put it in your home directory instead, for every project.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. A client with a skills folder reads it without being told; everywhere else the same text works, it is just handed to the model rather than found.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.

Reviews

no reviews yet · no installs yet

Nobody has reviewed this skill yet. The rating is the mean of the reviews written here, so there is none until somebody writes the first.

Who can post

Only accounts that have had the skill installed for fourteen days, so a review is written after living with it rather than after reading it. Publishers may reply once.
