 Use Bash, `git`, `gh`, `yt-dlp`, `ffmpeg`, or a browser workflow for local
 files, repository operations, video downloads/frames, OCR, and JS-only pages.
 
+### X posts, threads, and Articles
+
+Pass an X/Twitter post or Article URL to `web_fetch`. Public reads use
+[FxTwitter](https://docs.fxembed.com/api/introduction/) without keys, an X account,
+or configuration. The post ID is sent to FxTwitter; no paid X API or Grok call is
+made. This also applies to X URLs selected for search enrichment or research.
+Results identify the extraction path and remain untrusted.
+
+Long posts retain their full supplied text. Articles preserve headings, links,
+lists, and embedded code. Threads use at most two public API calls and retain at
+most 100 connected author posts. Missing/deleted posts and upstream omissions
+mean **thread completeness is never guaranteed**, separately from output
+truncation. Use `offset`/`nextOffset` for long output.
+
+For authenticated access, use your **existing signed-in browser**:
+
+1. Enable remote debugging in `brave://inspect/#remote-debugging` (Chrome:
+   `chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging`). This permits local browser control;
+   pi-search never enables it for you or restarts your browser.
+2. Run **`/search-x connect`** for Brave, or `/search-x connect chrome` or
+   `/search-x connect chromium`.
+3. Confirm in Pi and approve the browser's native connection prompt.
+
+Automatic X reads now prefer your existing login. No separate profile or browser
+installation is needed, and cookies are never copied. Each new connection may
+require browser approval; the connection is reused during the Pi session.
+An authenticated failure does **not** send the target to FxTwitter. Sign in to
+X normally if your login expires, or explicitly choose public mode. Only loaded
+author posts are returned, not an exhaustive reply crawl. If multiple profiles
+have X tabs open, close the other profiles' X tabs before reading.
+
+- `/search-x status` reports the mode and authorization state.
+- `/search-x public` prefers FxTwitter without using the browser.
+- `/search-x direct` persistently disables both extra paths, including for search
+  enrichment and research. Tool arguments cannot override this user policy.
+- `/search-x auto` restores browser-first, otherwise-public routing.
+- `/search-x disconnect` revokes extension access while preserving the selected
+  mode. Your browser, X login, and remote-debugging setting remain unchanged.
+
+Only the mode and authorized browser name are stored under Pi's agent directory
+at `pi-search/x/preferences.json`. The reader attaches only to its own temporary
+background tab; existing tabs are not navigated or instrumented. Cancellation
+closes the owned tab; shutdown also disconnects without closing your browser.
+If the connection drops before tab creation is acknowledged, a blank temporary
+tab may remain.
+
+In that temporary tab, requests are limited to HTTPS X/asset hosts and read
+operations. Redirects are checked before following, private DNS answers are
+rejected, and service workers are bypassed for that tab. A restrictive page
+policy blocks frames, workers, and media; WebSockets and popup controls are
+blocked. Extraction has an overall deadline, bounded output, and an observed
+response-byte limit (20 MiB by default, including the X application's scripts).
+This is **not** the direct fetcher's DNS-pinned transport or a browser-wide
+network sandbox: it uses your browser's network configuration,
+and in-flight traffic can exceed the observed limit before the tab closes.
+No posting, liking, or following controls are used.
+
+`xMode: "auto" | "public" | "browser" | "direct"` selects a path for one fetch;
+`browser` requires prior user authorization. FxTwitter returns Markdown even when
+another format is requested; `outputFormat` reports the actual format.
+`/handle/article/POSTID` links work through FxTwitter. Bare `/i/article/ARTICLEID`
+links use the supplied page or the authorized browser; Article IDs are never
+mistaken for publishing-post IDs. If X hides that page, supply its publishing
+post URL instead.
+
