Twitter Reader

Quick Start

Extract content from a Twitter/X article or tweet:

1. Take the Twitter/X URL from the user
2. Construct the jina.ai URL: https://r.jina.ai/https://x.com/<id>
   - For x.com/<user>/article/<id>: use https://r.jina.ai/https://x.com/<user>/article/<id>
   - For x.com/i/status/<id>: use https://r.jina.ai/https://x.com/i/status/<id>
   - For x.com/<user>/status/<id>: use https://r.jina.ai/https://x.com/<user>/status/<id>
3. Use web_fetch to retrieve the content
4. Return the extracted markdown text to the user

Why Use This

Twitter/X has anti-bot measures that prevent direct scraping. The jina.ai proxy bypasses these restrictions and returns clean, readable markdown content.

URL Format Patterns

Notes

• The extracted content will be in markdown format
• Images in the tweet will be preserved as markdown image links
• The web_fetch tool automatically handles the extraction
• If the URL is already in the correct format, use it directly with jina.ai
