From the repository

pnpm build

bash
npx mcp_twitter

1. Configure the .env file:

sh
TWITTER_AUTH_MODE = "CREDENTIALS" # Credentials mode

1. Create a Developer Account:

Make sure you have a Twitter account
Visit the Developer Platform
Get your API credentials
Follow this guide if you need help creating your developer account

2. Configure the .env file

TWITTER_AUTH_MODE = "API" # API mode Add the following entry to your claude_mcp_config.json file:

json
"mcp_twitter": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp_twitter"],
"env": {
"TWITTER_AUTH_MODE": "CREDENTIALS",
"TWITTER_USERNAME": "YOUR_TWITTER_USERNAME",
"TWITTER_PASSWORD": "YOUR_TWITTER_PASSWORD",
"TWITTER_EMAIL": "YOUR_TWITTER_EMAIL"
}
}
```
Replace the placeholder credentials with your actual Twitter account information. This configuration will launch the MCP Twitter server using npx when Claude needs to interact with Twitter.
