✏️ Edit Profile

Update profile fields via the settings page. Change name, bio, location, website, and more.

📋 What It Does

This script provides the following capabilities:

1. Automated operation — Runs directly in your browser console on x.com
2. Configurable settings — Customize behavior via the CONFIG object
3. Real-time progress — Shows live status updates with emoji-coded logs
4. Rate limiting — Built-in delays to respect X/Twitter's rate limits
5. Data export — Results exported as JSON/CSV for further analysis

Use cases:

• Update profile fields via the settings page. Change name, bio, location, website, and more.
• Automate repetitive account tasks on X/Twitter
• Save time with one-click automation — no API keys needed
• Works in any modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari)

⚠️ Important Notes

Use responsibly! All automation should respect X/Twitter's Terms of Service. Use conservative settings and include breaks between sessions.

• This script runs in the browser DevTools console — not Node.js
• You must be logged in to x.com for the script to work
• Start with low limits and increase gradually
• Include random delays between actions to appear human
• Don't run multiple automation scripts simultaneously

📖 Step-by-Step Tutorial

Step 1: Navigate to the right page

Open your browser and go to x.com/settings/profile. Make sure you're logged in to your X/Twitter account.

Step 2: Open the browser console

• Chrome/Edge: Press F12 or Ctrl+Shift+J (Mac: Cmd+Option+J)
• Firefox: Press F12 or Ctrl+Shift+K
• Safari: Enable Developer menu in Preferences → Advanced, then press Cmd+Option+C

Step 3: Paste the script

Copy the entire script from scripts/editProfile.js and paste it into the console.

Step 4: Customize the CONFIG (optional)

Before running, you can modify the CONFIG object at the top of the script to adjust behavior:

const CONFIG = {
  // Edit these values before running
  // See Configuration table above for all options
};

Step 5: Run and monitor

Press Enter to run the script. Watch the console for real-time progress logs:

• ✅ Green messages = success
• 🔄 Blue messages = in progress
• ⚠️ Yellow messages = warnings
• ❌ Red messages = errors

Step 6: Export results

Most scripts automatically download results as JSON/CSV when complete. Check your Downloads folder.
