X (Twitter) MCP server

X (Twitter) × Cursor

Use the X (Twitter) MCP server
in Cursor

Post to X and search the timeline — draft, publish, and research without leaving your AI. This guide connects X (Twitter) to Cursor (the AI code editor) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · Connects with your API key

Setup: X (Twitter) in Cursor

Cursor adds MCP servers via MCP settings or install deep links. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect X (Twitter) to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. On your gate overview, click 'Add to Cursor' — Cursor opens and asks to install the gateway.
  3. Confirm and approve the sign-in.
  4. X (Twitter)'s tools are now available to Cursor's agent, governed by your rules.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same X (Twitter) connection works in Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool X (Twitter) exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Cursor did with X (Twitter) — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

X (Twitter) passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
