xurl
Use xurl for X API work. Shortcut commands return JSON; raw mode works for any v2 endpoint.
Auth
- ~/.xurl holds tokens; check auth with xurl auth status instead of reading it.
- Pass secrets to auth commands through the prompt, not inline, so they stay out of shell history.
- --verbose prints auth headers into tool output.
