Fetch full tweets, long tweets, quoted tweets, and X Articles from X/Twitter without login or API keys, using no dependencies and zero configuration.
Fetch full tweets, long tweets, quoted tweets, and X Articles from X/Twitter without login or API keys, using no dependencies and zero configuration.
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Fetch tweets from X/Twitter without authentication. Uses FxTwitter API.

Uses FxTwitter public API (api.fxtwitter.com) which proxies X/Twitter content. Articles are returned as structured blocks and reassembled into full text.
Cannot fetch reply threads (only reply counts available via replies_count field) Reply content would require browser automation dependencies (Camofox/Nitter) These were removed to maintain zero-dependency architecture --replies flag exists but returns an explanatory error message Cannot fetch deleted or private tweets Rate limits depend on FxTwitter service availability If FxTwitter goes down, the skill won't work (no fallback)
