xurl
Use xurl for X API work. Shortcut commands return JSON; raw mode works for any v2 endpoint.
Secret safety
- Never read, print, summarize, upload, or inspect
~/.xurl.
- Never ask user to paste tokens/secrets into chat.
- Do not run auth commands with inline secrets.
- Do not use
--verbosein agent sessions; it can expose auth headers.
- Check auth with
xurl auth status.
