What This Skill Does

The openclaw-x skill provides a powerful local bridge to interact with X (formerly Twitter) directly through the OpenClaw AI agent ecosystem. By leveraging a local API service running on your machine, it enables automated management of your X account without manual browser navigation. You can effortlessly monitor your home timeline, search for trending topics, engage with content via likes and retweets, and manage your bookmarks. Whether you need to catch up on latest developments, post updates, or curate information, this skill acts as a seamless interface between your AI agent and the social platform.

Installation

To get started, follow these steps:

1. Download the executable from the GitHub Release.
2. Use the 'Cookie-Editor' browser extension in Chrome to export your X cookies into a file named cookies.json.
3. Place this cookies.json file in the same directory as the executable.
4. Launch the application to start the local service on http://localhost:19816.
5. Install the skill in OpenClaw by running: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/bosshuman/openclaw-x.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for power users and developers looking to automate their social presence. Use it to keep your timeline clean of noise by programmatically filtering search results, or use it to act as an assistant that responds to specific keywords. It is also perfect for researchers who need to aggregate user data or tweet metrics without dealing with manual clicking or complex browser automation scripts. Automate your daily engagement by scheduling tweets or saving important threads for later study.

Example Prompts

• "Can you show me the latest tweets on my timeline and summarize the top three topics?"
• "Search for the latest tweets about 'AI Agents' with a focus on recent news, then like the most popular one."
• "Post a tweet for me saying: 'I am currently building with OpenClaw, this is an incredible experience!'"

Tips & Limitations

Since this tool relies on local cookie storage, ensure you handle your cookies.json file securely and never share it. X may flag automated behavior if you perform too many actions in a short period, so use moderation. Additionally, ensure the local service remains active in the background for your agent to function correctly. This skill does not support advanced account settings changes or password management, keeping the scope strictly to content interaction.
