fxtwitter-translate#

Fetch and translate Twitter/X tweets to Chinese. Uses the public fxtwitter API to get JSON content, extracts text, formats and translates it to clean Chinese markdown.

Workflow#

1. Extract tweet ID from URL:

   • https://x.com/:username/status/:tweetId → extract tweetId
   • https://twitter.com/:username/status/:tweetId → extract tweetId
   • https://fxtwitter.com/:username/status/:tweetId → extract tweetId
   • https://api.fxtwitter.com/:username/status/:tweetId → already API format

2. Convert to fxtwitter API URL: text

   https://api.fxtwitter.com/:username/status/:tweetId
   
   

3. GET request to fetch JSON

4. Extract content:

   • Get tweet.text from JSON response
   • If it's a long tweet with multiple cards, concatenate all text content
   • Strip any extra HTML/formatting

5. Format and Translate:

   • Preserve original structure (headings, lists, paragraphs)
   • Translate to natural-sounding Simplified Chinese
   • Keep any URLs intact, credit the original author
   • Output as clean markdown

Notes#

• This skill only handles single tweets/threads, not quoted retweets (can extract the main tweet content)
• Images/video are not fetched, only text content
• Always credit original author and link at the end
• Keep the original structure (headings, lists, paragraphs) intact in translation
