X Chat
An agent skill by cursor, from cursor/plugins. Tags: automation, cli, messaging.
What it does
Read, summarize, or send encrypted X Chat (XChat) DMs via the X plugin MCP plus local chatxdk / xchat_lite.py. Use when the user mentions X Chat, xchat, encrypted DMs, Chat PIN, juicebox, inbox messages, or wants to reply in X Chat. Not for classic unencrypted DMs, posting tweets, or always-on daemons. If chat tools or dm.read/dm.write are missing, tell them to reconnect the X plugin — do not create an app or ask for Bearer tokens.
Install
With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:
npx skills add cursor/plugins --skill 'X Chat'
Or copy the skill folder into Claude Code's skills directory by hand (~/.claude/skills for every project, or .claude/skills inside one):
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/cursor/plugins
cp -r plugins/third_party/x/skills/x-chat ~/.claude/skills/'X Chat'
