xurl is the official curl-like command-line tool for the X (formerly Twitter) API, written in Go. It supports OAuth 1.0a and OAuth 2.0 PKCE authentication with multi-app and multi-account credential management, plus an encrypted XChat client.

Use cases

  • make requests to the X API from the command line
  • test X API endpoints like curl
  • manage multiple X API app credentials and OAuth tokens
  • authenticate with X API using OAuth 2.0 PKCE
  • send authenticated requests to Twitter API without writing code
  • explore X API responses before integrating into an app

When to choose

  • you need a quick, official way to call X API endpoints from the terminal
  • you want built-in OAuth 1.0a/2.0 token handling without writing auth code
  • you manage multiple X developer apps or accounts
  • you want to prototype or debug X API requests

When to avoid

  • you need a programmatic SDK for embedding in an application rather than a CLI
  • you work with social platforms other than X
  • you need a GUI or dashboard-style API client
