Ready-to-post content for X, Reddit, Hacker News, and Product Hunt.

Tweet 1 (Hook)

just shipped the biggest update to XActions ever

58,000+ lines of new code. 115 new files.

XActions is now the most complete open-source X/Twitter toolkit on GitHub.

plugins. workflows. cross-platform. real-time streaming. social graphs. sentiment analysis. browser extension.

all free. thread 🧵

Tweet 2 (Plugin System)

1/ Plugin System

anyone can now extend XActions with npm packages

create xactions-plugin-yourname → add scrapers, MCP tools, automations, API routes

community plugins auto-register in the MCP server so AI agents discover them instantly

Tweet 3 (Cross-Platform)

2/ Cross-Platform Scrapers

XActions now scrapes Bluesky, Mastodon, and Threads — not just Twitter

Bluesky uses AT Protocol (no browser needed)
Mastodon uses public REST API (any instance)
Threads uses Puppeteer like Twitter

one unified interface:
scrape('bluesky', 'profile', { username: 'user.bsky.social' })

Tweet 4 (Workflows)

3/ Workflow Engine

define automation pipelines as JSON:

trigger: every 30 min
→ scrape @competitor's latest tweet
→ if posted < 30 min ago
→ summarize with AI
→ post your take

set it and forget it. runs on cron via Bull queue.

Tweet 5 (Streaming)

4/ Real-Time Streaming

subscribe to any account's tweets, follower changes, or mentions

polls via Puppeteer → deduplicates in Redis → pushes events over Socket.IO

your dashboard updates live. no API key. no webhook setup.

Tweet 6 (Sentiment + Graph)

5/ Sentiment Analysis + Social Graph

built-in sentiment analyzer works completely offline — no API keys

monitor your reputation over time. get alerts when sentiment drops.

plus: map your entire social graph. find clusters, bridge accounts, influence scores. export to D3.js or Gephi.

Tweet 7 (Portability)

6/ Account Portability

export your ENTIRE Twitter life:

• all tweets
• followers & following lists
• bookmarks & likes
• DMs

formats: JSON, CSV, Markdown, self-contained HTML archive

migration stubs ready for Bluesky & Mastodon

Tweet 8 (Extension)

7/ Browser Extension

no more pasting scripts in the console

Chrome/Firefox extension with a popup UI:

• toggle automations on/off
• configure settings
• live activity log
• works on x.com, standalone, no server needed

Tweet 9 (Numbers)

by the numbers:

140+ MCP tools (most of any Twitter MCP server)
4 platforms (Twitter, Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads)
50+ browser scripts
29 API route modules
26 agent skills
22 Claude tutorials
6 new systems (plugins, streaming, workflows, analytics, portability, graph)

Tweet 10 (CTA)

all of this is 100% free and open source.

no API keys. no subscriptions. no paywalls.

Hacker News Post

Title: Show HN: XActions – Open-source X/Twitter automation with MCP, cross-platform scrapers, and workflow engine

Text:

Hey HN,

I've been building XActions — an open-source toolkit for X/Twitter automation. Just shipped v3.1.0 with some features I haven't seen in any other project:

• Plugin system — community npm packages that extend scrapers, MCP tools, and automations
• Cross-platform scrapers — Twitter + Bluesky (AT Protocol) + Mastodon (REST API) + Threads behind one interface
• Workflow engine — declarative JSON pipelines with cron triggers, conditions, and chained actions
• Real-time streaming — subscribe to tweet/follower/mention events via Socket.IO polling
• Social graph analysis — map relationships, detect clusters, find bridge accounts with D3.js visualization
• 140+ MCP tools — largest free MCP server for Twitter, works with Claude/GPT/Cursor
• Sentiment analysis — built-in rule-based analyzer (works offline) + optional LLM mode
• Account portability — export your entire Twitter life to JSON/CSV/HTML, migration stubs for Bluesky

Everything runs via browser scripts (paste in console), CLI, Node.js library, or MCP server for AI agents. No Twitter API key needed — it uses Puppeteer with stealth mode.

100% MIT licensed. Would love feedback on the architecture, especially the plugin system and workflow engine.
