Twitter Reader

Pulls Twitter/X data into Claude for financial research without needing API keys or cookie wrangling. Built on opencli, which piggybacks on your existing Chrome session to fetch timelines, search tweets, check profiles, and track trending topics. Read-only by design, so no accidental posting. The setup requires a browser extension and Node 21+, but once that's done you can ask Claude to search fintwit sentiment on a ticker, pull recent posts from analysts, or scan your bookmarks for DD. Output comes back as JSON, CSV, or markdown depending on what you need. Honestly most useful if you're already doing market research in the terminal and want to skip opening Twitter in a browser tab.

Twitter Skill (Read-Only)

If your host has not already executed the shell probes below (for example, in Codex), run the commands inside the ! wrappers with its shell tool before choosing a setup path. Use the actual output; if shell access is unavailable, report that limitation.

Reads Twitter/X for financial research using opencli, a universal CLI tool that bridges web services to the terminal via browser session reuse.

This skill is read-only. It is designed for financial research: searching market discussions, reading analyst tweets, tracking sentiment, and monitoring financial news on Twitter/X. It does NOT support posting, liking, retweeting, replying, or any write operations.

Important: opencli reuses your existing Chrome login session — no API keys or cookie extraction needed. Just be logged into x.com in Chrome and have the Browser Bridge extension installed.

Step 1: Ensure opencli Is Installed and Ready

Current environment status:

!`(command -v opencli && opencli doctor 2>&1 | head -5 && echo "READY" || echo "SETUP_NEEDED") 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT_INSTALLED"`
