What it solves

This project provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows AI assistants to access and monitor real-time data from Twitter/X. It bridges the gap between LLMs and live social media data, enabling AI to perform searches, track users, and analyze trends without requiring the user to manually copy-paste information.

How it works

The server acts as an intermediary between an MCP-compatible AI client (like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Zed) and the 6551 API. It exposes a set of tools that the AI can call to fetch user profiles, search for tweets, track follower events, and monitor specific accounts via WebSockets for real-time updates.

Who it’s for

• AI Power Users: Those using MCP-compatible editors or assistants who want their AI to have live Twitter data access.
• Crypto/Meme Token Analysts: Users who need to track "KOLs" (Key Opinion Leaders) and gather evidence for meme token theses and trade activity.
• Social Media Monitors: People who want to automate the tracking of account activity, deletions, and follower changes.

Highlights

• Comprehensive Toolset: Includes tools for user profiles, advanced tweet searches, and tracking deleted tweets.
• Real-time Monitoring: Supports WebSocket subscriptions for instant notifications on new tweets, replies, and profile updates.
• KOL and Meme Tracking: Specialized tools for identifying influential followers and gathering evidence for meme tokens.
• Broad Client Compatibility: Ready-to-use configurations for Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and more.
