}X User Posts
Collect recent public posts for one or more usernames. Replies are excluded.{
"usernames": ["openai", "github"],
"results_limit": 40
}
Use with MCP
| Interface | Value |
|---|---|
| REST | POST /v1/x/user-posts |
| Compact MCP | socq_execute with endpoint: "x/user-posts" |
| Typed MCP | socq_x_user_posts |
| Exact-tool URL | https://api.socq.ai/mcp?tools=x_user_posts |
| CLI | socq x user-posts |
input object for socq_execute, or pass the same fields directly to the typed tool. Typed tools also accept _wait_seconds, _result_limit, and _idempotency_key.
A successful collection returns a
task_id. Continue with socq_get_task until the task succeeds, then read normalized records from results.items.results_limit specifies the maximum number of posts returned for each username. The total number of results can be up to the number of usernames multiplied by results_limit. Billing is based on the total number of results returned.
Results use the normalized structure documented in X Posts, with resource set to user-posts. The submitted username is returned under extra.input_username.
Result Fields
Task results use the stable SocQ fields below. Source-specific field names and formats are normalized without inferring or enriching values that the source did not provide. To request a smaller field set, usefields for MCP queries, _result_fields for typed tools, or --result-fields in the CLI. Declared fields remain present when their value is null.
