2 things to look at

no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Web Search Advanced - Tweet Category

Tool Restriction (Critical)

ONLY use web_search_advanced_exa with category: "tweet". Do NOT use other categories or tools.

Filter Restrictions (Critical)

The tweet category has LIMITED filter support. The following parameters are NOT supported and will cause 400 errors:

includeText - NOT SUPPORTED
excludeText - NOT SUPPORTED
includeDomains - NOT SUPPORTED
excludeDomains - NOT SUPPORTED
moderation - NOT SUPPORTED (causes 500 server error)

Supported Parameters

Core

query (required)
numResults
type ("auto", "fast", "deep", "neural")

Date filtering (ISO 8601) - Use these instead of text filters!

startPublishedDate / endPublishedDate
startCrawlDate / endCrawlDate

Content extraction

textMaxCharacters / contextMaxCharacters
enableHighlights / highlightsNumSentences / highlightsPerUrl / highlightsQuery
enableSummary / summaryQuery

Additional

additionalQueries - useful for hashtag variations
livecrawl / livecrawlTimeout - use "preferred" for recent tweets

Token Isolation (Critical)

Never run Exa searches in main context. Always spawn Task agents:

Agent calls web_search_advanced_exa with category: "tweet"
Agent merges + deduplicates results before presenting
Agent returns distilled output (brief markdown or compact JSON)
Main context stays clean regardless of search volume

When to Use

Use this category when you need:

Social discussions on a topic
Product announcements from company accounts
Developer opinions and experiences
Trending topics and community sentiment
Expert takes and threads

Examples

Recent tweets on a topic:

web_search_advanced_exa {
  "query": "Claude Code MCP experience",
  "category": "tweet",
  "startPublishedDate": "2025-01-01",
  "numResults": 20,
  "type": "auto",
  "livecrawl": "preferred"
}

Search with specific keywords (put keywords in query, not includeText):

web_search_advanced_exa {
  "query": "launching announcing new open source release",
  "category": "tweet",
  "startPublishedDate": "2025-12-01",
  "numResults": 15,
  "type": "auto"
}

Developer sentiment (use specific query terms instead of excludeText):

web_search_advanced_exa {
  "query": "developer experience DX frustrating painful",
  "category": "tweet",
  "numResults": 20,
  "type": "deep",
  "livecrawl": "preferred"
}

Output Format

Return:

Results (tweet content, author handle, date, engagement if visible)
Sources (Tweet URLs)
Notes (sentiment summary, notable accounts, threads vs single tweets)

Important: Be aware that tweet content can be informal, sarcastic, or context-dependent.
