X Algorithm MCP

Tweet scoring and optimization using X's actual algorithm weights - 22 engagement signals, 18 safety filters, diversity penalty calculator, and 11 research tools.

⚔ X Algorithm Toolkit

Score, optimize, and generate tweets using the actual signal weights from X's open-source recommendation algorithm.

npm Built with React TypeScript License: MIT

🧠 What This Does

This toolkit reverse-engineers X's recommendation algorithm from the open-source codebase and gives you:

  • Tweet Scorer — Score any draft (0-100) against the actual algorithm weights
  • Hook Analyzer — Test your opening line against the -11Ɨ not_dwelled penalty
  • Diversity Calculator — Plan posting cadence using the decay formula from author_diversity_scorer.rs
  • 18 Filter Checker — Run tweets through quality/safety gates
  • AI Rewrite, Generate & Thread Builder — Multi-provider AI (Groq, Gemini, OpenAI, Claude)
  • Draft Manager, Compare Mode, Score History — Full workflow tools
  • Export Scorecard — Branded PNG downloads

šŸ“Š The 22 Algorithm Signals

From weighted_scorer.rs + ranking_scorer.rs:

SignalWeightWhat It Means
Reply27.0Ɨ#1 signal — end every post with a question
Bookmark10.0ƗSave-worthy content gets massive boost
Follow4.0Ɨ"I want more" — the career signal
Dwell (Binary)2.0ƗMulti-line posts earn more read time
Cont. Dwell Time1.5ƗLonger reads score higher
Click-Dwell Time1.5ƗDeep interest after expanding
Report-369ƗNuclear penalty — content becomes invisible
Not Interested-74ƗOff-topic = algorithmic death
Scrolled Past-11ƗWeak hooks trigger this

+ 13 more signals (Like, Repost, Quote, Quoted Click, Share, DM Share, Copy Link, Click, Profile Click, Photo Expand, Video Quality View)


šŸš€ Quick Start

# Clone
git clone https://github.com/MrChartist/x-algorithm-toolkit.git
cd x-algorithm-toolkit

# Install & Run
npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:5173 — no API key needed for scoring, filters, and analysis.

For AI features (Rewrite, Generate, Thread), add an API key in Settings (Groq free tier recommended).


šŸ”§ MCP Server (npm)

Install the MCP server to connect the algorithm engine to any AI assistant:

Option 1: Via npx (Recommended)

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "x-algorithm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "x-algorithm-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Option 2: Global Install

npm install -g x-algorithm-mcp

Option 3: From Source

cd mcp && npm install && npm run build

11 Tools: score_tweet, check_filters, analyze_hook, get_signals, get_optimal_schedule, compare_tweets, detect_spam_patterns, diversity_penalty, classify_niche, get_thread_strategy, full_audit
