It authenticates using browser cookies (auth_token) rather than an official API key, making it accessible without a developer account. The library stores credentials and account state in a local SQLite database (scweet_state.db), supports both synchronous and asynchronous APIs, and can save results to CSV or JSON.\n\nIt's designed for researchers, data collectors, and developers who need to extract Twitter/X data at scale. The package includes built-in support for multiple accounts, per-account proxies, resume functionality for interrupted scrapes, and a CLI interface. It depends on sqlmodel and SQLAlchemy for state management, curl_cffi for HTTP requests, and pydantic for data validation. The library can also run hosted on Apify with no local setup required.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to scrape Twitter/X data and don't have or want an official API key. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and works as of June 2026. Install it for research, archival, or data collection tasks. Caveat: requires dedicated X accounts (never use personal accounts), browser cookie extraction, and likely proxies for any serious volume; X's undocumented endpoints can break after platform changes."},"id":"scweet","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/scweet","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/scweet.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/scweet/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"Scweet","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Scrape tweets, profiles, followers and more from Twitter/X \u2014 no API key needed"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":140986,"position":11256,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"5.3"}
