Description
Access live Twitter/X data through TwtAPI's hosted public skill gateway. Search tweets, look up users, read timelines, inspect followers and following, fetch...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it claims: it runs a small Python CLI that posts queries to TwtAPI's gateway and requires a dedicated TWTAPI_SKILL_KEY. Before installing: 1) Confirm you trust the gateway domain (https://skill.twtapi.com or your self-hosted override) because your queries and the skill key are sent there. 2) Store the TWTAPI_SKILL_KEY securely (env or OpenClaw config) and use least-privilege/rotate keys if possible. 3) Note the minor metadata mismatch: the README/code accept an optional TWTAPI_SKILL_BASE_URL but it isn't declared in the registry metadata — if you plan to override the gateway, set that env var explicitly. 4) If you need extra assurance, review or run the included scripts in an isolated environment and monitor network traffic/credits on your TwtAPI dashboard.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: twtapi
Version: 1.2.0
The twtapi skill is a standard API wrapper for accessing Twitter/X data via the TwtAPI service. The core logic in scripts/twtapi.py uses Python's standard urllib library to make authenticated requests to a legitimate service endpoint (skill.twtapi.com) and contains no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (access Twitter/X via TwtAPI gateway) match the shipped CLI and network calls. The skill only requires python3 and a TwtAPI skill key, which are appropriate for this purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays within the expected scope (run the bundled CLI to call TwtAPI endpoints). It documents an optional TWTAPI_SKILL_BASE_URL you can set to override the gateway; this is reasonable but that optional env var is not listed in the registry metadata (minor inconsistency).
Install Mechanism
Install spec only suggests installing Python via Homebrew (official formula). No downloads from unknown servers or archive extraction; the code file is included in the package.
Credentials
Only one required env var (TWTAPI_SKILL_KEY) is declared and used as the primary credential — proportionate for a hosted gateway. The code and docs also optionally read TWTAPI_SKILL_BASE_URL, but that optional variable is not declared in the registry metadata (documentation/metadata mismatch). No unrelated credentials are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not always-enabled and does not request elevated/persistent system privileges. It does network calls to the listed TwtAPI gateway (expected for its function).
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install twtapi - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/twtapi - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
