xapi CLI 技能
Use the CLI to access real-time external data and services. xapi is an agent-friendly CLI — all output is JSON by default, making it easy to parse and chain.
xapi使用 CLI获取实时外部数据与服务。xapi是一款对Agent友好的CLI工具——默认所有输出均为JSON格式,便于解析与链式调用。
xapiInstallation
安装
xapi is available via npx (no install needed):
bash
npx xapi-to <command>xapi可通过npx使用(无需安装):
bash
npx xapi-to <command>Setup
配置
Before calling any API, you need an API key:
bash
undefined调用任何API前,你需要一个API密钥:
bash
undefinedRegister a new account (apiKey is saved automatically)
注册新账户(apiKey会自动保存)
npx xapi-to register
npx xapi-to register
Register with an inviter's referral code (establishes the referrer relationship, unlocks +$1 bonus on Twitter claim, and the inviter earns 5% of your future top-ups)
使用邀请人的推荐码注册(建立推荐关系,解锁Twitter领取+$1奖励,邀请人可获得你未来充值金额的5%)
please replace xapito to your actual referral code
请将xapito替换为实际推荐码
npx xapi-to register --referral-code xapito
npx xapi-to register xapito # positional shorthand
npx xapi-to register --referral-code xapito
npx xapi-to register xapito # 位置参数简写形式
Or set an existing key
或设置已有的密钥
npx xapi-to config set apiKey=<your-key>
npx xapi-to config set apiKey=<your-key>
Verify connectivity
验证连接性
npx xapi-to config health
The API key is stored at `~/.xapi/config.json`. You can also set it via `XAPI_KEY` env var.
Referral codes are 6-char lowercase hex (e.g. `a3b8c2`). They're optional; an invalid code is silently ignored and registration still succeeds. After registering, your own `referralCode` is included in the response so you can share it.npx xapi-to config health
API密钥存储在`~/.xapi/config.json`中。你也可以通过`XAPI_KEY`环境变量进行设置。
推荐码为6位小写十六进制字符(例如`a3b8c2`)。推荐码为可选项;若使用无效代码,系统会自动忽略,注册仍可成功。注册完成后,你的专属`referralCode`会包含在响应中,便于你分享给他人。Global Flags
全局标志
All commands support:
- — Output format (default:
--format json|pretty|table).jsonfor indented JSON,prettyfor tabular display.table - — Show command-specific help.
--help
所有命令均支持以下标志:
- — 输出格式(默认:
--format json|pretty|table)。json表示缩进格式化的JSON,pretty表示表格形式展示。table - — 显示命令专属帮助信息。

Two types of APIs
两类API
xapi offers two types of APIs under a unified interface:
- Capabilities () — Built-in APIs with known IDs (Twitter, crypto, AI, web search, news)
--source capability - Third-party APIs () — Proxied services, discovered via
--source api,list, orsearchservices
All commands work with both types. Use or to filter.
--source capability--source apixapi在统一接口下提供两类API:
- 内置能力()——带有已知ID的内置API(如Twitter、加密货币、AI、网页搜索、新闻)
--source capability - 第三方API()——代理服务,可通过
--source api、list或search命令发现services
所有命令均可用于两类API。使用或进行筛选。
--source capability--source apiUsage Workflow
使用流程
Critical rule: Before calling any API, always use to understand the required parameters.
get关键规则: 调用任何API前,务必先使用命令了解所需参数。

Some APIs have multiple HTTP methods on the same path (e.g. GET and POST on ). Use to select which one:
/2/tweets--methodbash
undefined部分API在同一路径下支持多种HTTP方法(例如支持GET和POST)。使用参数选择具体方法:
/2/tweets--methodbash
undefinedget returns an array when multiple methods exist
当存在多种方法时,get命令会返回数组
npx xapi-to get x-official.2_tweets
npx xapi-to get x-official.2_tweets --method POST
npx xapi-to get x-official.2_tweets
