Twitter/X Profile Lookup
Setup
Read scrapecreators-api first. Execute every operation below through the runtime it selects: the GooseWorks MCP tool in terminal-free clients, the GooseWorks CLI in a local terminal, or the direct API with the user's own key. Never assume a shell is available.
Get profile information, tweets, and engagement data for any Twitter/X account.
When to Use
- User asks about a Twitter/X account
- User wants to see someone's tweets
- User asks "who is @username on Twitter?"
- Research on a public figure or company
- Social media due diligence
How It Works
Uses the ScrapeCreators API through its direct GooseWorks proxy.

path: /v1/twitter/profile
query:
handle: openaiGet User's Tweets

query:

Response

Examples
User: "What has OpenAI been posting on X?"
Use the Get User's Tweets operation with handle: openai.
User: "Show me Sam Altman's recent tweets"
Use the Get User's Tweets operation with handle: sama.
User: "What's Anthropic sharing on Twitter?"
Use the Get User's Tweets operation with handle: AnthropicAI.
Error Handling
- success: false — the API may temporarily be unable to access the profile; retry after a few seconds
- Protected/private accounts return errors — no workaround
- Rate limiting may cause failures on rapid sequential requests — add short delays between calls
Tips
- Remove @ from handles
- Protected/private accounts cannot be accessed
- Returns recent tweets (not full history)
- Rate limiting may apply for very frequent requests
What's included
Video Production Harness
Full video production sequence with script review, actual ingredient choices, controlled generation, editing, evidence-based quality review, polish, captions and delivery. A host binding supplies project storage, authentic approvals, provider access and billing.
Render Street Interview
Build a vox-pop street interview video ad. An interviewer with a handheld mic asks passers-by one question about the brand's product, they give blunt wrong guesses, one gives the real answer, and the cut lands on a branded end card. Generates the takes through the GooseWorks fal proxy (Seedance 2.0 with native voice), then grades, re-cuts, captions and gates them locally. Use for the street-interview format.
Write Video Ad Script
Write the words of a short-form video ad (voiceover, dialogue, chat bubbles, on-screen lines) the way performance creative teams do instead of from a blank page. Builds the script from the buyers' own words, the beat sheet of an ad that already works and three deliberately different angles, filters them with a rule check and a second non-Claude model, and takes the strongest into the review with the other two as one-line swaps. Use it in every video ad run before any paid step, and whenever the user asks to write, rewrite or improve a video ad script or says a script sounds generic or AI-written.
