X (Twitter) posts unofficial API: export a user's tweets and stats

Automatically export a user's tweets and stats on x.com. An unofficial X (Twitter) API for a user's posts: export an account's latest tweets with their views, likes, reposts, replies, quotes and bookmarks as data, in one call, without the X API. For the owner-only analytics of each post (impressions, engagements), run get_post_analytics on its id. Get a user's latest posts by handle (x.com/<handle>, the Posts tab), newest first: their own tweets and self-threads, without replies (see get_user_replies) or reposts (see get_user_reposts). Works signed in or signed out. Signed in, it reads the full Posts tab up to count. Signed out, X only shows visitors its few most recent posts, so it returns that short preview and fewer than count is expected; each post's source field says which one you got. Returns per tweet: id, url, text, created_at, lang, likes, retweets, replies, quotes, views, bookmarks, is_retweet, is_quote, source.

Input

handle required

X handle, with or without the @, e.g. NASA

count optional

How many to return. Without it, the script returns the first page X shows (often 20 to 40). With it, the script loads more until it has count, reaches the end, or X stops loading.

Output

None

X (Twitter) search unofficial API: search tweets, no API key

Search X (Twitter) for tweets with every X search operator, from the Top tab (a ranked sample, the default) or the Latest tab (chronological), picked by the tab arg. Returns per tweet a canonical record: id, url, author {id, handle, name}, text, created_at, lang, likes, retweets, replies, quotes, bookmarks, views, is_retweet, is_quote, plus followers (the author's follower count, a search-only enrichment), and the top-level query and count. Top is a ranked sample, not exhaustive.

Get a tweet and its replies on X (Twitter)

Fetch a tweet by URL — the focal post plus the surrounding conversation. Returns `tweet` (the focal post; null if deleted/tombstoned) and `replies[]`, which holds every other tweet on the conversation page: both the focal's ancestors (the thread above it, present when the focal is itself a reply; each has `in_reply_to` null or pointing above the focal) and the replies below it (`in_reply_to` points at the focal or a sibling reply). Use `in_reply_to` to tell ancestors from replies and rebuild the thread — the array is not filtered to descendants of the focal. Each entry is a canonical tweet record: id, url, author {id, handle, name}, text, created_at, lang, likes, retweets, replies, quotes, bookmarks, views, is_retweet, is_quote, in_reply_to {id, author_handle}. Scrolls the main thread until `count` is met (then complete=false — more may exist) or it drains (complete=true). Replies behind a "Show more replies"/hidden/probable-spam cursor are not expanded, so even complete=true is a floor, not a guarantee every nested reply was seen.

X (Twitter) profile unofficial API: get a user's bio and followers

Look up an X user's profile by handle. Returns handle, user_id, name, bio, location, website, joined, followers_count, following_count, is_verified, is_self, is_following, follows_you. Follower/following counts are exact integers, not X's abbreviated "3.7M" display text. bio and website carry the real destination URLs, with X's t.co shortlinks resolved. is_following is null on your own profile (you have no follow relationship to yourself); user_id is always present.
