**Post text:**
```bash
python ~/.claude/skills/x-post/x-post.py post "Your tweet text"
```
**Post with image:**

## Rules
- Always show the user the exact tweet text before posting and get confirmation
- Never post without explicit user approval
- Video uploads use chunked upload (INIT/APPEND/FINALIZE) and may take a minute for processing
- The script auto-detects media type from file extension
