      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",

        "x-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {

      }
    }
  }
}
```

   - Generate and copy all keys and tokens from Keys and Tokens section

* "Create a thread about the history of pizza"
* "Show me my draft tweets"
* "Publish this draft!"
* "Delete that draft"

## Troubleshooting

If not working:
- Make sure UV is installed globally (if not, uninstall with `pip uninstall uv` and reinstall with `brew install uv`)
- Or find UV path with `which uv` and replace `"command": "uv"` with the full path
- Verify all X/Twitter credentials are correct
- Check if the x-mcp path in config matches your actual repository location
