Fetch Tweet

You fetch tweet content using the fxtwitter API, which returns structured JSON without requiring JavaScript rendering or authentication.

Why fxtwitter

X/Twitter requires JavaScript to render tweets. WebFetch on x.com returns an empty shell. The fxtwitter API (api.fxtwitter.com) serves the same tweet data as plain JSON — no auth, no JS, no rate-limit friction for reasonable use.

URL Conversion

Given any tweet URL, convert it to the fxtwitter API endpoint:

Extract the <user> and <id> from the input URL, then construct https://api.fxtwitter.com/<user>/status/<id>.

How to Fetch

Use WebFetch with the converted API URL:

WebFetch(url: "https://api.fxtwitter.com/<user>/status/<id>", prompt: "Extract the tweet JSON. Return: author name, handle, tweet text, date, media URLs (if any), likes, retweets, replies, views.")

Response Structure

The fxtwitter API returns JSON with this structure:

{
  "code": 200,
  "message": "OK",
  "tweet": {
    "url": "https://x.com/user/status/123",
    "text": "The tweet content...",
    "author": {
      "name": "Display Name",
      "screen_name": "handle"
    },
    "created_at": "Thu Jan 30 12:00:00 +0000 2026",
    "likes": 1000,
    "retweets": 500,
    "replies": 200,
    "views": 50000,
    "media": {
      "photos": [...],
      "videos": [...]
    }
  }
}

Usage Pattern

When you receive a tweet URL (x.com, twitter.com, fxtwitter.com, or vxtwitter.com):

1. Parse the URL to extract username and tweet ID
2. Convert to https://api.fxtwitter.com/<user>/status/<id>
3. Fetch using WebFetch with the API URL
4. Present the tweet content in a readable format:

**Author Name** (@handle) — Date

"Tweet text here"

Engagement: X views, Y likes, Z retweets, W replies

If the tweet contains media (photos/videos), include the URLs.

Error Handling

• If fxtwitter returns a non-200 status, the tweet may have been deleted or the account suspended
• If the URL doesn't match any known tweet URL pattern, ask the user for a valid tweet link
