Action Commands

Unified interface for capabilities (built-in) and APIs (third-party). Use --source capability|api to filter.

xapi list                                            # list all actions
xapi list --source capability                        # only built-in capabilities
xapi list --source api --category DeFi               # filter by source and category
xapi list --page 2 --page-size 20                    # pagination
xapi list --service-id <id>                          # filter by service

xapi search "twitter"                                # search by keyword
xapi search "token price" --source api               # search APIs only

xapi categories                                      # list all categories
xapi categories --source capability                  # categories for capabilities only

xapi services                                        # list all services
xapi services --category Social --page-size 10       # filter and paginate

xapi get twitter.tweet_detail                        # get action schema
xapi call twitter.tweet_detail --input '{"tweet_id":"1234567890"}'  # execute

OAuth

Bind third-party OAuth accounts (e.g. Twitter) to your API key.

xapi oauth bind --provider twitter                   # bind Twitter account
xapi oauth status                                    # list current bindings
xapi oauth unbind <binding-id>                       # remove a binding
xapi oauth providers                                 # list available providers

Account

xapi register                                        # create account, saves apiKey automatically
xapi balance                                         # show xToken balance
xapi topup                                           # generate payment URL
xapi topup --method stripe --amount 10               # stripe, $10
xapi topup --method x402                             # x402 (USDC on Base)

Config

xapi config show                                     # show current config
xapi config set apiKey=sk-xxx                        # save API key
xapi config health                                   # check backend connectivity

Workflow: Always GET before CALL

Before calling any action, always read its schema first to understand required parameters:

# 1. Find the action
xapi search "twitter"

# 2. Read its schema
xapi get twitter.tweet_detail

# 3. Call with correct parameters
xapi call twitter.tweet_detail --input '{"tweet_id":"1234567890"}'

Output Formats

All output is JSON by default — designed for agent consumption.

xapi list --format json                              # default, machine-readable
xapi list --format pretty                            # pretty-printed JSON
xapi list --format table                             # human-readable table

• The key is stored at ~/.xapi/config.json — do not expose this file
• topup outputs a payment URL containing the API key — do not share publicly
