Twitter Summary
Scrape a public Twitter/X profile via Nitter front-ends and return a compact JSON listing of tweets, replies, and retweets within a time window.
Two scrapers are included:
playwright-twitter-summary.ts— uses Playwright for browser renderingquick-twitter-summary.ts— uses linkedom for HTML parsing without a browser
Prerequisites
The wrapper auto-installs Playwright if missing (logs to /tmp/twitter-playwright-install.log).
For the quick scraper:
cd /workspace && bun add linkedom
Usage
Using the wrapper script:
/workspace/.pi/skills/twitter-summary/run <handle> [hours] [output.json]
<handle> is required. No default user handle is configured in the scripts.
Examples:
# Fetch last 16 hours for an explicit handle
/workspace/.pi/skills/twitter-summary/run <handle> 16 /tmp/twitter_fetch.json
# Direct Playwright invocation
bun /workspace/.pi/skills/twitter-summary/playwright-twitter-summary.ts --handle=<handle> --hours=24
# Quick (no browser) invocation
bun /workspace/.pi/skills/twitter-summary/quick-twitter-summary.ts --handle=<handle> --hours=12
Output
JSON with handle, instance, count, and items array. Each item has:
date— ISO 8601 timestamptype—tweet,reply, orretweettext— Tweet contenturl— Link to the tweet on the Nitter instance
Notes
- The scrapers try several public Nitter instances and use the first that responds.
- Coverage varies by instance. Combining outputs from multiple instances can improve coverage.
- Network restrictions or anti-bot protections may affect results.
- Logs are written to stderr; JSON output goes to stdout.
- A log file is written to /tmp/twitter-summary.log when using the wrapper.
