xAI X Search

Use this skill for X/Twitter search through the Grok-connected xAI Responses server-side x_search tool.

Preferred Grok Tool Flow

1. Use search_tool to discover the available tool schema first:

{
  "query": "xai x search"
}

2. Call the returned xAI X-search MCP tool with the schema it reports. A typical payload is:

{
  "prompt": "Summarize recent posts from @xai about Grok releases.",
  "allowed_x_handles": ["xai"]
}

Options

• prompt: required X search request.
• allowed_x_handles: optional handles to include.
• excluded_x_handles: optional handles to exclude.

Do not pass both allowed_x_handles and excluded_x_handles in the same call.

Evidence Discipline

Treat X posts as leads or primary-source statements only when the account identity matters. Corroborate factual claims with independent web/docs/repo evidence before presenting them as settled facts.

Credential Safety

Use existing Grok/xAI credentials exposed by the host or MCP server. Never print, quote, summarize, or store OAuth tokens, refresh tokens, bearer tokens, or API keys.
