twitter_bookmark_folder_timeline

Read-only

Retrieves tweets from a specified Twitter bookmark folder using its folder ID, with cursor-based pagination to navigate through complete timelines.

Instructions

Read the tweets inside ONE of your authenticated account's bookmark folders, identified by folder_id (from twitter_bookmark_folders). Requires an authenticated session behind your key. Cursor-paginated; there is no count/page-size argument for this op.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
ct0NoOptional. The account's ct0 cookie, paired with auth_token. Sent as the x-ct0 header.
cursorNoOpaque pagination cursor from a previous response's next_cursor field. Omit on the first call; pass on subsequent calls to fetch the next page.
folder_idYesThe bookmark folder's id, from twitter_bookmark_folders (e.g. '2073826456430592429').
proxy_urlNoOptional. Residential proxy URL to egress this call through. Recommended for writes: X soft-blocks writes from datacenter IPs as automated. Sent as the x-proxy-url header.
auth_tokenNoOptional. The account's auth_token cookie, to act AS that account for this call (must be paired with ct0). Sent as the x-auth-token header; never placed in the URL.
user_agentNoOptional. User-Agent string to send for this session. Sent as the x-user-agent header.
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only and non-destructive, and the description adds useful context: requires an authenticated session, and pagination is cursor-based with no count/page-size. This is beyond the annotation metadata and helps the agent understand expectations.

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 sentences, both dense with actionable info: purpose/scoping, source of folder_id, auth requirement, and pagination. No fluff, each sentence earns its place.

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 tool with good annotations and full schema coverage, the description adequately covers purpose, auth, and pagination. It doesn't describe the return shape, but without an output schema, that's acceptable. It might mention rate limits, but overall it's complete for this tool type.

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 coverage is 100%, so all six parameters are described there. The description adds minimal extra meaning, only reminding that folder_id comes from twitter_bookmark_folders. Since the schema handles parameter details, the description's contribution is marginal but not absent.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the tool reads tweets from one bookmark folder, specified by folder_id sourced from twitter_bookmark_folders. This specific verb+resource+scope distinguishes it from siblings like twitter_bookmark_folders (listing folders) and twitter_bookmarks (all bookmarks).

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It provides a prerequisite (folder_id from twitter_bookmark_folders) and notes the requirement for an authenticated session. It also explains pagination behavior (cursor-based, no count parameter). While it doesn't explicitly name alternative tools, the 'ONE' qualifier and source hint adequately guide usage.

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