Twitter MCP server
by LuniaKunal
Lets your AI read your Twitter timeline, search hashtags, send DMs, and post or delete tweets for you.
This is a small helper program that connects your AI assistant to Twitter. Once it is set up, you can ask your AI to check your timeline, look up someone's tweets, or send a message, and it will actually do it on Twitter for you. It is handy if you manage a Twitter account and want to save time on everyday reading and posting.
What is an MCP server? The 30-second version
On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill, in this case a connection to Twitter. You install this helper on your own computer, and it uses your Twitter login to talk to Twitter on your behalf. After that, when you ask your AI something about Twitter, it quietly asks this helper, and the helper goes and gets the answer or makes the change.
What this MCP server does
You type a request in plain words, like asking to see your timeline or to post a tweet. Your AI passes that request to this helper program running on your computer. The helper then talks to Twitter using your saved login details. Twitter sends back the tweets, replies, or confirmation, and the helper hands that back to your AI. Your AI then shows it to you in the chat in normal language.

Try asking your AI
- “Show me my Twitter home timeline from today”
- “What has @someuser been tweeting about this week”
- “Find recent tweets with the hashtag AI and summarize what people are saying”
- “Post a tweet saying I just shipped a new project”
- “Delete my last tweet”
What it gives back to you
You get back normal chat answers: lists of tweets, short summaries of what people are saying, or replies from your messages. When you ask it to post or delete something, it tells you whether the action worked. Everything shows up right in the conversation, so you do not have to open Twitter yourself.
Before you start
What you need
- A Twitter account with API access (Twitter gives you login credentials for apps)
- Python 3.11 or newer installed on your computer
- The uvicorn tool installed (a small program that runs the server)
- Your Twitter login saved in a cookies file and a .env file with your API credentials
Good to know
This helper can post and delete tweets and read your direct messages, so be careful with what you ask it to do and check before letting it change anything on your account.
