X (Twitter) Search by Desearch
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This skill appears to be a read-only X/Twitter search helper that uses a Desearch API key and sends search requests to Desearch as advertised.
This looks appropriate for searching X/Twitter through Desearch. Before installing, make sure you trust Desearch with your search queries and API key, and use a dedicated key you can revoke.

Your Desearch API key will be used whenever the skill makes searches, so usage may be tied to your Desearch account and quota.
The script reads a Desearch API key from the environment and sends it as the Authorization header for API requests.
key = os.environ.get("DESEARCH_API_KEY") ... "Authorization": f"{api_key}"Use a dedicated Desearch API key, keep it private, and rotate or revoke it if you no longer use the skill.
Search terms and requested X/Twitter targets are shared with Desearch to perform the lookup.
Search queries, usernames, post IDs, URLs, and filters are sent to Desearch's external API, which is necessary for the advertised service.
DESEARCH_BASE = "https://api.desearch.ai" ... req = Request(url, data=data, headers=headers, method=method)
Avoid sending sensitive search terms unless you are comfortable with Desearch processing them, and review the provider's privacy terms if needed.
