Xcatcher — Recent X Posts tools (17, 5 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • cancel_taskwrite actionFree

    Cancel a queued task by task_id. Side effects: changes task state. Xcatcher refunds cost_points when a queued task is successfully cancelled.

  • create_crawl_taskwrite actionFree

    Create a crawl task for one or more X (Twitter) usernames. Side effects: creates a new task AND consumes points. If points are insufficient, upstream returns HTTP 402 with PAYMENT-REQUIRED (quote). This tool surfaces it as error.code=PAYMENT_REQUIRED with payment_required payload so agents can request spending approval, top up, then retry safely. Modes: - normal: Fast latest-post snapshot at scale (fresh-feed monitoring). Optimized for high-throughput batch retrieval. - deep: Deeper per-user collection/enrichment (typically slower; higher resource usage). Use when you need more than a quick latest-post snapshot. Performance note: Normal mode is optimized for a small latest-post snapshot per handle. Actual completeness and latency depend on X availability, upstream limits, and network conditions. Batching: For very large sets, split users into batches. Suggested upper bound per task: 500 users (configurable via MAX_USERS_PER_TASK). Reliability: - Use idempotency_key to make retries safe (avoid duplicate charges). - After creation, poll get_task_status every 5–10s until has_result=true. - Then call get_result_download_url (download still requires the same Bearer token).

  • get_account_balanceFree

    Return the account attached to the current Bearer API key and its points balance. Use before creating a task to estimate whether an x402 top-up will be needed. Read-only.

  • get_direct_crawl_paymentwrite actionFree

    Create a request-bound x402 v2 payment requirement for an accountless crawl. Use this only for the accountless x402 path after preflight_crawl; API-key accounts use create_crawl_task instead. Normal requests use progressive batch pricing, so quote the complete deduplicated handle list together. This does not move funds. Return payment_required_b64 unchanged to an x402-compatible wallet/client; the live amount, asset, network, destination, and quoteId are authoritative.

  • get_direct_result_previewFree

    Return structured JSON rows for a completed accountless paid crawl. Use this instead of get_result_preview for an accountless x402 task; API-key accounts use get_result_preview. Use offset for pagination; the task token is required and should be treated as a secret.

  • get_direct_task_statusFree

    Read an accountless paid crawl using its task_id and task-scoped token. Use this instead of get_task_status for an accountless x402 task. Poll every 5-10 seconds until task.has_result is true or it reaches failed/cancelled.

  • get_result_download_urlFree

    Get an absolute download URL for a task result (read-only). If the task is not finished, returns ok=false with code=RESULT_NOT_READY (HTTP 409). Downloading the URL requires the same Authorization: Bearer token.

  • get_result_previewFree

    Return up to 100 result rows from an API-key account task as native structured JSON for direct agent analysis; accountless x402 tasks use get_direct_result_preview instead. Use offset/next_offset for pagination; this does not download or parse XLSX. Use after has_result=true; use get_result_download_url when the complete XLSX is required. Read-only.

  • get_sample_resultFree

    Return a stable synthetic example of Xcatcher's paginated result and coverage metadata. No live X data is fetched, no account is needed, no task or quote is created, and no funds move.

  • get_service_infoFree

    Read Xcatcher's live capabilities, prices, limits, endpoints, and recommended agent workflow. Call this first when planning a crawl or when cached documentation may be stale. No points are consumed.

  • get_task_statusFree

    Get API-key account task status by task_id (read-only); accountless x402 tasks use get_direct_task_status instead. Recommended polling interval: every 5–10 seconds until has_result=true. Returns safe structured state, result metadata, and authenticated result URLs; server filesystem paths are never exposed.

  • get_x402_quotewrite actionFree

    Create a short-lived USDC quote for a requested number of Xcatcher points. Returns the exact live amount and supported Base/Solana payment requirements; it does not move funds. Ask the user before signing or sending any payment.

  • list_crawl_tasksFree

    List recent tasks owned by the current Bearer API key, newest first. Use next_before_id for cursor pagination. Read-only and does not consume points.

  • preflight_crawlFree

    Normalize and deduplicate X handles, validate the mode, and preview the current modeled points/USDC cost. This free read-only check requires no account, creates no quote or task, and moves no funds. Use it before requesting a live x402 payment challenge.

  • submit_direct_crawl_paymentwrite actionFree

    Submit an x402 v2 PAYMENT-SIGNATURE for the exact users/mode used by get_direct_crawl_payment. This may settle USDC and create a crawl task. Call only after explicit spending approval. On success, securely save task_token: it grants task-scoped result access for seven days.

  • wait_for_taskFree

    Poll a crawl task server-side until it has a result, reaches a terminal failure/cancelled state, or the bounded timeout expires. Read-only and cheaper for agent context than repeated manual polling.

  • x402_topupFree

    Top up points for the CURRENT Bearer key using x402 proof. Inputs: - quote_id: returned by PAYMENT-REQUIRED (or /api/v1/x402/quote) - payment_signature_b64: base64(JSON) that will be passed as HTTP header PAYMENT-SIGNATURE Side effects: credits points to the same Bearer key (no key rotation). On success returns credited_points and balance_after (shape depends on upstream).

Xcatcher — X (Twitter) MCP Server and Agent Skill

Xcatcher gives AI agents recent public X (formerly Twitter) posts for one or many named account handles. It combines a public Remote MCP server, an installable Agent Skill, structured JSON results, a REST API, and accountless x402 v2 USDC pay-per-crawl on Base.

Start here

For an AI agent, provide the canonical Skill URL:

https://xcatcher.top/skills/xcatcher/SKILL.md

The standalone SKILL.md contains the complete Remote MCP workflow. For a persistent installation in Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, and other Agent Skills compatible hosts, use the dedicated minimal Skill repository:

npx skills add lvpiggyqq/xcatcher-skill --skill xcatcher

GitHub CLI users can inspect and install the same package with:

gh skill preview lvpiggyqq/xcatcher-skill xcatcher
gh skill install lvpiggyqq/xcatcher-skill xcatcher

See the installation guide or the dedicated xcatcher-skill repository. A versioned ZIP remains available for hosts that install bundles directly:

https://xcatcher.top/skills/xcatcher.zip?v=3.1.2
SHA-256: 3db290a1787112431b8bd310f48208dccfdcec8acb1376364f99eec3f0708860

For an MCP client, connect the Streamable HTTP endpoint:

https://xcatcher.top/mcp/

Tool discovery and the accountless x402 tools do not require an Xcatcher API key. An optional Authorization: Bearer xclive... header unlocks account, points, and private task tools.

What agents use it for

  • Monitor recent posts from a fixed watchlist of companies, founders, researchers, or public figures.
  • Preflight and deduplicate handles for free before creating any quote, task, or payment.
  • Inspect a clearly labeled synthetic result contract without fetching X.
  • Compare announcements and themes across multiple X accounts.
  • Collect public timeline snapshots for social intelligence, market research, or OSINT.
  • Retrieve paginated native JSON for analysis, or authenticated XLSX for a full export.

The input is 1–500 named handles or profile URLs per task. Xcatcher is not keyword search, a complete historical archive, or the full X firehose.

Agent workflow

  1. Call getserviceinfo to inspect live capabilities and prices.
  2. Call preflightcrawl to normalize handles and preview modeled cost with no side effects. Use getsample_result when the user wants to inspect the synthetic output contract.
  3. If the user has a wallet but no Xcatcher account, call getdirectcrawl_payment with the normalized input.
  4. Show the exact live USDC amount, Base network, asset, destination, and expiry; obtain approval before wallet signing.
  5. Have the approved x402 client submit the wallet-generated PAYMENT-SIGNATURE with the same handles and mode. Use submitdirectcrawl_payment only when the MCP host can inject the signature through a host-managed secret channel.
  6. Keep the returned task token in that secret store, poll getdirecttaskstatus, then read structured rows with getdirectresultpreview.

Existing API-key users can instead call createcrawltask, waitfortask, and getresultpreview. The Agent Skill contains the complete decision tree, retry rules, and security boundaries.
