What is Twitter MCP / X MCP?
Twitter MCP (also called X MCP) is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI agents direct access to X (Twitter). "X" is the current brand name for Twitter — both terms refer to the same platform and the same MCP server.
With XAgent's Twitter MCP server, AI tools like Cursor, Claude Desktop, Cline, Windsurf, and ChatGPT can:
- Read — search tweets, read timelines, fetch profiles and followers
- Write — post tweets, like, retweet, follow, send DMs
- Analyze — monitor mentions, track competitors, discover trends
Unlike open-source Twitter MCP alternatives that require you to clone a repo, set up API credentials, and manage dependencies, XAgent ships a single x-mcp binary with 51 built-in tools and self-healing error handling. Download, add your API key, and connect — setup takes under 5 minutes.
AI can reason well, but social execution is still broken.
✕ Traditional API errors
Hard for agents to recover from.
✕ Open-source tool wrappers
Brittle and fragile.
✕ Config friction
Blocks onboarding and conversion.
XAgent solves this with MCP-native tools, readable failure messages, and fast configuration workflows — making it the most reliable Twitter MCP / X MCP server available.

FAQ
Does this work with Cursor and Claude?
Yes. XAgent uses MCP over HTTP and works with Cursor, Claude, and other MCP clients.
Do write actions need login?
Yes. Posting, likes, follows, and DMs need a login cookie, while read actions only need API key access.
Can I self-host first and switch to cloud later?
Yes. The current flow is self-host first.
What is the difference between Twitter MCP and X MCP?
They are the same thing. X is the current brand name for Twitter, so "Twitter MCP" and "X MCP" refer to the same MCP server. XAgent supports both names and provides the same 51 tools regardless of which term you search for.
How is XAgent different from open-source Twitter MCP servers?
XAgent provides 51 built-in tools (vs 5–10 in most open-source options), self-healing error handling, pre-built binaries for all platforms (no npm/pip/clone required), and official support. Open-source alternatives typically require manual Twitter API credential setup, offer fewer tools, and lack production-grade error recovery.
Which AI clients support Twitter MCP?
XAgent's Twitter MCP (x-mcp) works with Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cline, Windsurf, Zed, GitHub Copilot, Roo Code, Continue, NextChat, LM Studio, Amazon Q, LibreChat, and JetBrains AI Assistant — any client that supports the MCP protocol.
Is XAgent's Twitter MCP free?
XAgent uses pay-as-you-go pricing with no monthly fee. Packs start at $0.99 for 2,000 points (~2,000 tweet reads). The x-mcp binary itself is free to download.
Is my Twitter cookie safe?
In stdio mode, your cookie is used only locally by the x-mcp process and is not sent to any server. In HTTP mode, the cookie is sent over an encrypted connection to mcp.getxagent.com only to run the actions you request; it is not stored or used for any other purpose. You can revoke the session in Twitter settings at any time.
Does using XAgent violate Twitter's terms of service?
XAgent simulates user actions in the browser. As with any automation tool, users should assess risk and comply with X/Twitter's terms of use. We recommend using at a reasonable rate and avoiding bulk operations.
Can I try it for free first?
Yes. New accounts get free points to start. The x-mcp binary is free to download; you only pay for API usage (e.g. tweet reads) after signing up at getxagent.com.
X-MCP — Twitter MCP Server
Our standalone Twitter MCP / X MCP server (stdio). Run it locally and add it to Cursor, Claude Desktop, or any MCP client. Windows, Linux, macOS — x64 and ARM64.
Platform & architecture

Arch:
Configure Twitter MCP / X MCP
Two connection options: stdio (local x-mcp) or HTTP (remote mcp.getxagent.com). Download a client below and follow the steps above to add MCP.
Option 1: stdio (local)
Run x-mcp locally; the client talks to the process over stdin/stdout.
- Download and install x-mcp from the homepage “X-MCP” block or “All builds” and pick the build that matches your system.
- Run x-mcp from a terminal (or use x-mcp install to add it to your PATH).
- In Cursor, Claude Desktop, or another MCP client, add an MCP server: type “Command” or “Stdio”, command = path to x-mcp, and pass your API key via args or environment.
x-mcp install copies the binary to: Linux/macOS `~/.local/bin`, Windows `%LOCALAPPDATA%\bin`. If that directory is on your PATH, use `x-mcp` (or `x-mcp.exe` on Windows) as the command in the client; otherwise use the full path to the executable.
Create an API key in the getxagent.com dashboard after logging in.
