Name: GetXAPI MCP Server
Author: getxapi

LABSCO SUMMARY

The login tool takes your X password as a tool argument, and the vendor says so itself.

Setting the auth token in configuration is the path that keeps the password out of the model's context, and the credentials set that way are injected only into the calls that need them rather than shown to the model. That warning is the vendor's, not a reading of ours. The monitor layer is the part with published limits, each tool stating its own rate, and the webhook test reports the HTTP status your endpoint returned rather than only whether the call went out. Cost is metered here and not only at X, so the account balance is a number worth reading before a long crawl.

What it is

An X/Twitter server over GetXAPI, an independent third-party API not affiliated with X: search and retrieval, posting and engagement, profile and article management, direct messages, and a monitor layer that delivers new tweets to a webhook. Reading needs only the GetXAPI key; anything that acts on a real account needs that account's own session.

What you get

Retrieval down to a single tweet: advanced_search_tweets takes operators with paging, get_tweet_detail returns author, media and engagement data, get_tweet_thread resolves a linear self-thread from any tweet inside it, and get_tweet_replies and get_tweet_retweeters page the responses.
Timelines and profiles: get_user_tweets, get_user_tweets_and_replies, get_user_tweets_complete with self-thread expansion, get_user_media, get_user_mentions, get_user_likes and get_home_timeline, alongside get_user_info, get_user_info_by_id and get_user_about for account creation location and username history.
Follower-graph reads: get_user_followers and get_user_following, their v2 counterparts with a canDm field, get_verified_followers, get_followers_you_know for mutuals, check_follow_relationship for follow, block and mute state, and get_user_affiliates for a verified organisation's accounts.
Posting and engagement: create_tweet with text, media, a quote target and a reply target, favorite_tweet, retweet_tweet, bookmark_tweet, unbookmark_tweet, follow_user, unfollow_user, delete_tweet, and upload_media through the chunked upload flow.
Long-form articles as a full lifecycle: create_article with an optional publish, update_article for title, body markdown or cover image, list_articles by lifecycle, then publish_article, unpublish_article, delete_article and get_article.
Direct messages: list_direct_messages by tab, get_direct_message_conversation newest-first with cursor paging, and send_direct_message addressed by id or username.
Profile maintenance: update_avatar, update_banner, and update_profile for name, bio, location, URL, link colour and birthdate.
Real-time monitoring: add_monitor starts watching an account, create_monitor_webhook registers the HTTPS destination, test_monitor_webhook sends a correctly signed payload down the live delivery path and reports the HTTP status your server returned, and update_monitor pauses or retunes it.
Ambient context: get_trends by country or place id, get_trend_locations, get_space_info for a Space's title, host, state and listener counts, download_space as MP3 with an optional transcript, plus list and search over bookmarks, list members and user search.
Account visibility: get_account_info returns the GetXAPI account, its credit balance and usage summary, and get_payment_history returns top-ups.

Requirements

A GetXAPI key in GETXAPI_KEY on an account carrying credit — every tool call is metered as ordinary API usage, with no separate charge for going through MCP. That key alone covers every read tool. The write and private half — posting, liking, DMs, articles, profile edits — additionally needs the X account's own session, and there are two ways to supply it: a login tool that takes your password as a tool argument, or X_AUTH_TOKEN set in the server's configuration. Prefer the second: the vendor's own guidance is that the password otherwise transits the model's context.

Setup effort

One command plus a key — npx -y @getxapi/mcp@latest, then supply credentials

See installation options

USE CASES

01

Researching what an account has actually been saying

Pull the timeline with self-threads expanded, then the media and the mentions around it, without a session on that account.

get_user_tweets_completeget_user_mediaget_user_mentions

02

Getting new posts pushed to your endpoint instead of polling for them

Start the monitor, register the HTTPS destination, and fire the signed test payload to see what your server actually returns.

add_monitorcreate_monitor_webhooktest_monitor_webhook

03

Publishing long-form and keeping it editable afterwards

Draft the article, revise the title, body or cover, and publish or pull it back to draft.

04

Working out how two accounts are connected before you act on it

Check the follow, block and mute state, and the mutuals between them, rather than inferring from the follower lists.

05

Posting with media from an agent

Upload the media, then create the tweet referencing it — with the account session supplied through configuration rather than typed into the chat.

upload_mediacreate_tweet

06

Keeping track of what the integration is costing

Read the account's credit balance and usage summary, and the history of top-ups against it.

69 tools

Counted once with only startup setup. Other versions, modes or optional credentials may expose a different list.

`add_monitor`

Start watching an X account. Rate limit: 20/min (fixed 60s window, shared across all API keys on the account). Passing webhook_url also consumes the separate 10/min webhook-create allowance. On 429, wait retry_after seconds before retrying.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL

What to know first

Tools you get

69 tools when we connected. GETXAPI_KEY alone gives the read tools; posting, liking, DMs and profile edits also need X_AUTH_TOKEN or x_login. x_login passes your X password through the model's context, and reset_password_send_code and reset_password_confirm expose account recovery.

Requires

npx on PATH
GETXAPI_KEY in your environment

CONTEXT COST

Moderate Standing cost

Rated by the size of the 69 tool definitions that ride along on every turn, not by how many there are
