WebSocket-based realtime stream of tweets, deleted-tweet alerts, follow events, profile changes, and new follower detection for the handles you monitor. Sub-second detection. TweetCatcher-compatible opcode framing.
OpenAPI spec · Postman collection
POST /v1/dt/targets or the bot's /add command.wss://api.xanguard.tech/v1/dt/realtime/ws and follow the opcode flow below.Frames are JSON objects with an op integer field. Most carry a d data field; events carry their type in d.event (there is no top-level t field).
| Code | Name | Direction | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | HELLO | server → client | First frame after upgrade. d.heartbeat_interval is ms. |
| 2 | LOGIN | client → server | Reply to HELLO with {"op":2,"d":"YOUR_API_KEY"} within 15s. |
| 4 | READY | server → client | Auth succeeded. Streaming begins. |
| 0 | EVENT | server → client | Carries d; the event type is in d.event. See event types below. |
| 1 | HEARTBEAT | client → server | Send every heartbeat_interval ms. |
| 11 | HEARTBEAT_ACK | server → client | Server's response to your heartbeat. |
| 3 | DISCONNECT | server → client | Connection closes after this frame. d is the reason string. |
Limits: 5 concurrent connections per API key. Stale events (>30s old) are dropped. Heartbeat ACK timeout is 90s.
First delivery of a detected tweet, reply, quote, or retweet from a tracked handle. May carry partial metadata. Store it and replace with twitter.post.update if that arrives for the same data.id. Tweet types in data.type: "post", "reply", "quote", "repost".

Enriched re-delivery of a previously sent tweet with complete metadata. Shares the same data.id as the original twitter.post.new. Replace any previously stored data for this tweet ID.

A tracked handle followed someone new. task_info.handle is the tracked account; data is the account it just followed. Unfollows are not a realtime event — fetch added/removed over a trailing window via GET /v1/dt/social/diff/{handle}.
{
"op": 0,
"d": {
"event": "twitter.following.new",
"event_id": "evt_f_elonmusk_1712000000",
"task_info": {"handle": "elonmusk"},
"data": {
"id": "44196397",
"handle": "vitalikbuterin",
"name": "Vitalik Buterin"
}
}
}
A tracked handle changed its bio, name, avatar, or pinned tweet. Fields in data.field: "description", "name", "avatar", "pinned_post".
{
"op": 0,
"d": {
"event": "twitter.profile.update",
"event_id": "evt_p_elonmusk_1712000000",
"task_info": {"handle": "elonmusk"},
"data": {
"field": "description",
"prev": "Old bio text",
"updated": "New bio text"
}
}
}
A single new follower for a tracked handle, emitted as it is observed. Requires the followers module. task_info.handle is the monitored account; data is the account that just followed (data.name may be null).
{
"op": 0,
"d": {
"event": "twitter.follower.new",
"event_id": "evt_fl_elonmusk_1771629216692",
"task_info": { "handle": "elonmusk" },
"data": { "id": "1890000000", "handle": "someacct", "name": "Some Name" }
}
}
A tweet from a tracked handle was deleted. Requires the realtime module. task_info.handle is the monitored account; data.tweet_id may be null when a deletion is known but the specific tweet isn't.
{
"op": 0,
"d": {
"event": "twitter.tweet.deleted",
"event_id": "evt_del_elonmusk_1771629216692",
"task_info": { "handle": "elonmusk" },
"data": { "tweet_id": "1899000000000000000" }

| Method | Path | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| GET | /v1/dt/targets | List tracked handles. |
| POST | /v1/dt/targets | Add handle: {"handle":"elonmusk"} |
| DELETE | /v1/dt/targets/{handle} | Stop tracking. |
| GET | /v1/dt/status | Subscription tier, expiry, slot usage. |
| PUT | /v1/dt/webhook | Set webhook URL (alternative delivery). |
All authenticate via ?api_key=dt_... query parameter. Full schemas in the OpenAPI spec.
If you'd rather receive HTTP POSTs than maintain a WS connection, set webhook_url:
curl -X PUT 'https://api.xanguard.tech/v1/dt/webhook?api_key=dt_...' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"url":"https://your-server.example.com/xanguard"}'
Each delivery includes header X-Signature: <hex> = HMAC-SHA256(secret, raw_body). Verify on receive. Body shape:
{
"event": "twitter.post.new",
"timestamp": 1715253825000,
"data": { ... } // identical to the WS event "d" field
}
Retry: 3 attempts with 1s, 2s, 4s backoff. Auto-disable: 10 consecutive failures pause the URL until you re-set it.
| Code | Cause | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 401 | Missing/wrong/expired API key | Use /apikey in the bot to regenerate. |
| 403 | Free tier; account_limit exceeded | Upgrade plan. |
| 429 | Rate-limit exceeded (REST) or 5-conn cap (WS) | Back off; close idle connections. |
| OP_DISCONNECT | WS-level error; d is the reason | Reconnect with backoff. |
