X now offers an MCP server to make its platform easier for AI tools to use

X has introduced a new hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, enabling AI tools like Claude and Cursor to connect directly to the platform using individual user permissions. By hosting the server, X removes the need for developers to build and manage their own infrastructure for API authentication. While this move does not introduce new API capabilities, it streamlines the retrieval and analysis of real-time data, positioning X as a vital information source for AI. The company maintains its existing API restrictions and pricing structures to mitigate risks related to spam and misuse.
