1. Create a Twitter Developer account and get your API keys from Twitter Developer Portal

2. Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop config file:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "twitter-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@enescinar/twitter-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "API_KEY": "your_api_key_here",
        "API_SECRET_KEY": "your_api_secret_key_here",
        "ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_access_token_here",
        "ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET": "your_access_token_secret_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop

That's it! Claude can now interact with Twitter through two tools:

- post_tweet: Post a new tweet
- search_tweets: Search for tweets

Try asking Claude:
- "Can you post a tweet saying 'Hello from Claude!'"
- "Can you search for tweets about Claude AI?"

The evals package loads an mcp client that then runs the index.ts file, so there is no need to rebuild between tests. You can load environment variables by prefixing the npx command. Full documentation can be found here.

OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key  npx mcp-eval src/evals/evals.ts src/index.ts

`post_tweet`

Post a new tweet.

`search_tweets`

Search for tweets.
