Get tweet retweeters

get_tweet_retweets
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get the users who retweeted a tweet. Paginated.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
countNoHow many users to request per page (default 20). X may return slightly more or fewer.
cursorNoPagination cursor. Leave empty for the first page; pass the next_cursor from a previous result to get the next page.
formatNoResponse format (default simple). simple: compact JSON with flat camelCase tweets and users, about 60% fewer tokens. raw: X's full GraphQL JSON, only needed for fields simple leaves out (cards, polls, edit history, community notes).
tweetIdYesNumeric tweet ID.
max_charsNoMaximum characters of JSON to return (default 50000). Longer output is cut with a [TRUNCATED] marker. Lower it to save context, raise it if you need the full response.

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that results are paginated, which the annotations don't say, but omits anything about rate limits, ordering, or the practical limits of X's retweeter list — modest added value over structured data.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two short sentences, zero filler, with the core purpose front-loaded ahead of the pagination note. Nothing to trim and nothing buried.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a read-only paginated list tool with no output schema, the definition is nearly sufficient: purpose and pagination are stated and the schema fully documents parameters including next_cursor. It could say more about the returned shape (user objects plus cursor) or rate limits, but this is a mild gap rather than a blocker.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so all five parameters (tweetId, count, cursor, format, max_chars) are fully documented in the schema with defaults, ranges and semantics. The description adds no parameter detail beyond restating pagination, so the baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Get the users who retweeted a tweet'), which is inherently distinct from siblings like get_tweet_favorites or get_tweet_quotes. It does not explicitly name or route against those siblings, but the resource is unambiguous enough that an agent can identify the right tool.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Only 'Paginated' hints at usage, and that is already covered by the cursor parameter schema. There is no guidance on when to use this versus get_tweet (the base tweet) or get_tweet_quotes, nor any prerequisite such as needing a valid tweetId or noting protected/deleted tweets.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
