Related MCP server: x-mcp

Configuration

Add to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "x-post-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["x-post-mcp"],
      "env": {

      }
    }
  }
}

Getting a Bearer Token

See the detailed step-by-step guide: English | 中文

Quick overview:

  1. Go to X Developer Portal

  2. Create a project and app

  3. Configure User Authentication with Read and write permission

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden. It accurately conveys the core behavior (creating and publishing a tweet) but does not mention side effects, authentication requirements, rate limits, or irreversibility. For a simple, well-known action this is acceptable but not richly transparent.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, front-loaded sentence with zero filler. Every word contributes meaning, and it is appropriately sized for a straightforward action.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's simplicity, full schema coverage, and absence of an output schema, the description plus schema is enough for an agent to invoke the tool correctly. It could mention response/error behavior, but that omission is minor for a basic create operation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the input schema already documents all three parameters (text, quote_tweet_id, reply_to_tweet_id). The description adds no extra parameter-level detail, meriting the baseline score.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description 'Post a new tweet to X (Twitter)' uses a specific verb (post) and a specific resource (tweet on X/Twitter), making the tool's function immediately clear. It is not a tautology and needs no sibling differentiation because no siblings exist.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The action is unambiguous — the tool is for creating a new tweet. There are no sibling tools to contrast with and no prerequisites to list, so the description's clear context is sufficient, even though it doesn't explicitly state 'use when...' or mention exclusions.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

With only one tool, there is no possibility of confusion or overlapping purposes. The tool's purpose is clear and unique.

Naming Consistency5/5

The single tool name 'send_tweet' follows a clear verb_noun pattern and is consistent. With only one tool, there are no inconsistencies to evaluate.

Tool Count4/5

One tool is slightly below the typical well-scoped range, but it is reasonable for a narrowly focused posting service. The count feels minimal yet sufficient for the stated purpose.

Completeness4/5

The tool covers the core action of posting a tweet, which is the server's stated purpose. Minor gaps exist, such as no ability to delete or read tweets, but these are not essential for a post-only tool and can be worked around.
