What This Skill Does
Extracts tweet content from x.com or twitter.com URLs using browser automation, returning text, author, timestamp, media links, and engagement stats. No Twitter/X API credentials or account login required. Can also download attached media files on request.
Works without API keys or a Twitter/X account, bypassing the credential requirements that most extraction approaches depend on.
When to use it
- Save a tweet before it gets deleted
- Archive a viral thread for reference
- Pull tweet text into a report or document
- Download images or video from a tweet
- Capture engagement stats on a specific post
