Open dcsan opened this issue 1 month ago • 3 comments

in the demo video you show using a twitter MCP client/server https://youtu.be/cyPBinQzicY?si=0xXcUY9VI14XsbO9&t=20

can you explain which one?

in the example script that tool isn't included https://github.com/rowboatlabs/rowboat/blob/main/apps/cli/examples/notebooklm-podcast.json

I had a look around but not sure maybe this one? https://docs.composio.dev/toolkits/twitter

interesting so you just create a twitter account and then this lets you search for keywords?

there are others i guess. https://mcpmarket.com/server/twitter

Hi,

Yes I used the one from Composio: https://docs.composio.dev/toolkits/twitter. We have also used https://www.klavis.ai/mcp-servers in other places.

Yep, its pretty straightforward!

What type of use cases did you have in mind?

I was thinking of something to find trending topics within a domain and then expand on them. eg "whats new in AI" your example above gave the actual keywords, where I'm looking for new words within a topic area. eg if "Kimi K2" is suddenly trending under Ai.

So - not sure if it could be used in that way - it would need to be more of a way to find new topics related to a category. Maybe there's some other services that already provide that?

Sorry I missed this.

Yeah, I'm not sure if Twitter lets you search by topics. The only way I can think of is you do this search iteratively assuming that some keywords would correlate with the topics you are looking for. E.g. you could search for 'LLM' or 'open-weights' -> dump it to a list-> find topics and associated keywords -> search again for keywords etc.
