Research Workflow

For deep research on a topic:

1. Decompose your question into 3-5 targeted search queries 2. Search with different sort modes (likes for signal, recent for breaking) 3. Follow high-engagement threads for context 4. Check profiles of key accounts found in results 5. Add important accounts to watchlist for monitoring

Search Operators

Composio supports standard X search operators:

• `"exact phrase"` — Match exact text
• `from:username` — Tweets from a user
• `-is:retweet` — Exclude retweets (added by default)
• `-is:reply` — Exclude replies (use `--no-replies`)
• `#hashtag` — Filter by hashtag
• `has:links` — Only tweets with links
• `lang:en` — Filter by language
