Twitter Reader

Fetches tweets and long-form X Articles with all images and engagement metadata into clean Markdown files.

Web & APIIntermediate★ 1,323⑂ 212AI score 9/10Last updated: Aug 8, 2026

What it does

  • Takes a tweet or X Article URL and pulls the full body content.
  • Writes YAML frontmatter with author, date, likes, retweets and bookmarks.
  • Downloads every embedded image into attachments/YYYY-MM-DD-author-title/ and rewrites the Markdown links to local paths.
  • Offers a lightweight text-only mode via the Jina API plus a batch script for multiple URLs.

Who it's for

  • Obsidian / Notion users who archive threads and articles into a personal knowledge base
  • Researchers and newsletter writers who collect X content to summarize or translate
  • Content teams that need faithful archives of image-heavy long-form posts

Examples

  1. "Save this X Article to ./Clippings with its images" → runs fetch_article.py, producing a Markdown file plus an attachments folder
  2. "Just extract the text of this tweet" → uses the Jina API mode for a fast text-only grab
  3. "Fetch these 5 tweets and summarize them" → batch fetch with fetch_tweets.sh, then let Claude summarize
