Purefeed

Monitors Twitter/X feeds with AI signal detection. Searches tweets semantically, manages signal detectors, and organizes curated tweets into bookmark folders. Use when the user wants to browse their Twitter feed, find tweets about a topic, set up content monitoring, or organize bookmarks. Do NOT use for general Twitter browsing without a Purefeed account.

API Base: https://purefeed.ai/api/v1 Auth: Authorization: Bearer $PUREFEED_API_KEY

Output Rules

Follow these rules for EVERY response that includes tweet data:

1. Format ALL screen names as clickable links: [@screen_name](https://x.com/screen_name). Never output plain @screen_name.
2. Format ALL tweet references as clickable links: [Tweet](https://x.com/screen_name/status/tweet_id).
3. Include view count with eye emoji: 👁 81K.
4. Sort by views or engagement descending unless user requests otherwise.

Example output line:

[@CryptoAyor](https://x.com/CryptoAyor) 👁 81K — detailed thread about $JELLY manipulation

Setup

1. Get API key at purefeed.ai/profile → Public API Keys → Create Key
2. Set it: openclaw config set skills.purefeed.env.PUREFEED_API_KEY "pf_live_YOUR_KEY"
3. Verify: curl -s https://purefeed.ai/api/v1/auth/me -H "Authorization: Bearer $PUREFEED_API_KEY"

Tool Dependencies

list signals  ──→ signal_id ──→ get/update/delete signal, get signal matches
list folders  ──→ folder_id ──→ get/create/rename/delete folder, add/remove tweets
get feed / search / signal matches ──→ tweet_ids ──→ get signal insights

Always list signals before signal-specific calls.

How to Find Tweets by Topic

Follow this exact sequence when the user asks "what's new about X?" or "find tweets about Y".

Step 1 — Find a matching active signal

GET /signals?search=TOPIC&active=true

The search parameter uses semantic/vector search — search=ai finds "Artificial intelligence", "AI Research", etc. If empty, try broader terms or GET /signals?active=true to see all active signals.

Step 2 — Get matches from that signal

GET /signals/{id}/matches?limit=20

Signal matches are the primary data source. They include AI-generated analysis (sentiment, category, insights). Do NOT skip to feed search.

Step 3 — Fall back to feed search ONLY if no signal found

GET /feed?limit=20&search=TOPIC
POST /search → {"query": "topic description", "limit": 20}

Step 4 — Filter feed by signal IDs (optional)

GET /feed?signal_ids={id1},{id2}&limit=20

Use signal IDs from Step 1 (GET /signals).

Workflows

Set up monitoring

1. POST /signals — create signal with name + description + tags + color + cron + timezone (auto-activates)
2. Wait up to 6 hours for processing
3. GET /signals/{id}/matches — check results
4. PUT /signals/{id} — refine description if too many irrelevant matches

Organize bookmarks

1. GET /folders — list folders
2. POST /folders — create a folder
3. POST /folders/:id/tweets — add a tweet to a folder
4. GET /folders/:id/tweets — review folder contents

First run

1. GET /auth/me — verify API key
2. GET /signals — see signal configurations
3. GET /folders — see bookmark folders

Key Concepts

• Signal: AI content detector with a name + description. Active if signals_subscriptions is non-empty; inactive if []. When creating: always set tags and color, never set include_keywords unless user explicitly asks (they are very restrictive).
• Folder: Bookmark folder for organizing curated tweets. Created via POST /folders, populated via POST /folders/:id/tweets.

Error Handling

Error	Agent Action
401 Unauthorized	Tell user to create new key at purefeed.ai/profile
429 Too Many Requests	Wait and retry. Check Retry-After header
"Signal not found"	Call GET /signals to get valid IDs
