The xAI team has released a complete configuration guide, teaching users how to integrate xurl, the official command-line tool from the X developer platform, into Hermes Agent, the open-source terminal AI agent from Nous Research. Once installed, users can manage their X accounts through everyday natural language, fully automating posting, searching, pulling bookmarks, and managing lists. xurl replaces the older third-party wrapper xitter, connecting directly to all endpoints of X API v2, and supports automatic token refresh via OAuth 2.0 PKCE. According to an official announcement from Nous Research, compiled and reported by BlockTempo. (Background: Hermes Agent major update》Adds proxy command turning three AI subscriptions into local APIs) (Context: Claude Managed Agents opens self-hosted sandboxes and MCP encrypted channels) Just days after dropping 808 commits to release the v0.14.0 major update, Nous Research delivered another blow this week. On May 20, the xAI team published a complete configuration guide in the official docs, allowing users to install the xurl skill into Hermes Agent — a single natural-language sentence can drive posting, searching, DMs, bookmarks, and list management on X accounts. Nous Research immediately reposted and promoted it on X. The @xai team has published a full setup guide on how to use the xurl skill, which allows your Hermes Agent to read and write to X on your behalf — posting, searching, pulling bookmarks, managing lists, and more — all through natural language. https://t.co/cvkwuvdDnK pic.twitter.com/6AwkzKChha — Nous Research (@NousResearch) May 19, 2026 Before the integration, Hermes used the third-party skill xitter, which under the hood wrapped Infatoshi/x-cli. Hermes co-founder Teknium officially introduced xurl via PR #12303, directly connecting to the xdevplatform/xurl codebase maintained by the X developer platform itself. Installation supports four methods: shell script (Linux + macOS), Homebrew, npm, and Go. Authentication follows the OAuth 2.0 PKCE flow: users register an app on the X developer platform, obtain the Client ID and Client Secret, and run xurl auth oauth2 --app my-app locally to complete authorization. Tokens are persisted in a YAML file at ~/.xurl, stored in isolation per app, with automatic refresh upon expiration. The official docs specifically highlight a common pitfall: omitting the --app flag causes the OAuth token to be stored in the built-in default profile, but that profile has no client-id, causing all subsequent commands to fail with authentication errors — anyone who has stepped on this just needs to re-run the authorization command to fix it. Once xurl is integrated into Hermes, users don't need to memorize any API endpoints — it directly translates the JSON returned by X into "plain language." If the user's underlying inference uses xAI's Grok model, an active SuperGrok subscription is required; switching to Claude or ChatGPT works via the hermes proxy feature added in last week's major update. What is the xurl tool? xurl is the official command-line client maintained by the X developer platform, covering all endpoints of X API v2, supporting operations such as posting, searching, DMs, bookmarks, and lists. Once installed into Hermes Agent, it can be driven by natural language. What prerequisites are needed to use the Hermes xurl skill? Users need to register an app on the X developer platform to obtain OAuth 2.0 credentials and complete local authorization. If using the xAI Grok model for inference, an active SuperGrok subscription is also required.
