# X (Twitter) data API for AI agents

looot lists the X operations of several data providers in one catalog. An agent reads a public profile, fetches a post, lists replies, runs an advanced search with operators, reads community timelines or looks up promoted posts in the X Ads Repository.

## Jobs an agent does

- Monitor a topic with advanced search operators and collect fresh posts.
- Read replies under a launch post to sort feedback.
- Profile an account before a partnership: bio, counts, recent posts.
- Follow the members and timeline of a community.
- Look up the promoted posts an advertiser ran in the EU.

## Operations by job

- Ads: Promoted posts from the X Ads Repository, by advertiser and date.
- Search: Advanced search with operators, and search for accounts and communities.
- Communities and lists: Community details, members and timelines, and list members and timelines.
- Replies and comments: Replies under a post and its comment threads.
- Followers and following: Who follows an account and who it follows.
- Profiles: A public profile by handle with counts and bio.
- Posts and timelines: One post by link or id, and an account's recent posts and media.

## How the providers differ

Search is where providers differ most. One accepts the full advanced search syntax with from:, since: and engagement filters, others take a plain keyword. Some operations take a handle and some a post link or numeric id. The TikHub family also covers lists, communities and follower checks that the smaller providers skip.

## Prompt

Use looot to search X for posts that mention example.com since last week, list the top ten by likes with author and link, and show each call's price before it runs. Setup is in skill.md.

## Which X operations does looot list?

Public profiles, single posts, an account's posts and media, replies, advanced search, follower and following lists, communities, lists, trends and the X Ads Repository. They come from several providers.

## Do I need an X developer account?

No. Your agent calls these operations with a looot key. You do not apply for X API access or manage its tiers.

## Can the agent use search operators?

One search operation accepts the advanced search syntax, including from, since, until and minimum-engagement filters. Others take a plain keyword. The input line on each operation says which.

## Can an agent post or like through these?

No. These operations read public data. They do not post, like, follow or message from any account.

## How do I read the replies to a post?

Use a replies or comments operation and pass the post link. You get author, text and engagement for each reply.

## Is there an operation for ads on X?

Yes. One searches promoted posts in the X Ads Repository by advertiser, country in the EU and EEA, and date range.

## How does my agent call a X (Twitter) operation?

It connects to looot once, searches the catalog for the job, reads the input fields and the price, then runs the operation. Setup takes one line from skill.md, and the same key works for every provider.

## How is a X (Twitter) call billed?

Per call, at the price shown on this page for that operation. The agent sees the price before the run, and the run is recorded with its cost in your ledger.

## Where do I find the full input and output fields?

Each operation has a reference page on docs.looot.ai with its input fields, an example call and the response. The For agents card on this page links the cheapest ones.

## Are the prices on this page current?

They are read from the live looot catalog every few minutes, so they change when a provider changes its price. When the catalog cannot be read, the page shows no numbers.

## Which X (Twitter) operation should I start with?

Start with the cheapest operation in the job you need, which is listed first in its group. Check that it returns the fields your agent reads, and switch to another provider if it does not.
