Twitter Downloader Skill

A compact, reliable workflow to parse Twitter/X URLs, fetch structured JSON via the public fxtwitter API (no auth), summarize the tweet, and download media files to Minis for easy sharing.

When to Use

  • User provides a twitter.com or x.com URL
  • User asks to download video/images/GIF from a tweet
  • User asks “这条推文里有什么/what’s in this tweet” and you may also need media links/files

What It Does

  1. Parse username and status ID from any Twitter/X URL variant
  2. Fetch tweet JSON from api.fxtwitter.com (fallback api.vxtwitter.com)
  3. Produce a short summary (author, handle, created time, text, sensitive flag)
  4. Extract direct media URLs (best bitrate for videos when available)
  5. Optionally download photos, thumbnails, and videos to a local folder and return Minis links
