+ # CycleTLS Cloudflare Bypass Example
2
+
3
+ This example demonstrates how to use the `@the-convocation/twitter-scraper/cycletls` entrypoint to bypass Cloudflare bot detection when authenticating with Twitter.
4
+
5
+ ## Problem
6
+
7
+ Twitter's authentication endpoints may be protected by Cloudflare's bot detection, which analyzes TLS fingerprints to detect non-browser clients. Standard Node.js TLS handshakes can trigger `403 Forbidden` errors during login.
8
+
9
+ ## Solution
10
+
11
+ This example uses [CycleTLS](https://github.com/Danny-Dasilva/CycleTLS) to mimic Chrome browser TLS fingerprints, allowing requests to pass through Cloudflare's protection.
12
+
13
+ ## Installation
14
+
15
+ ```sh
16
+ yarn install
17
+ ```
18
+
19
+ ## Configuration
20
+
21
+ Create a `.env` file in this directory with your Twitter credentials:
22
+
23
+ ```
24
+ TWITTER_USERNAME=your_username
25
+ TWITTER_PASSWORD=your_password
26
+ TWITTER_EMAIL=your_email
27
+ ```
28
+
29
+ ## Usage
30
+
31
+ ```sh
32
+ yarn start
33
+ ```
34
+
35
+ ## How it works
36
+
37
+ The example imports the `cycleTLSFetch` function from the `/cycletls` subpath:
38
+
39
+ ```ts
40
+ import { Scraper } from '@the-convocation/twitter-scraper';
41
+ import { cycleTLSFetch, cycleTLSExit } from '@the-convocation/twitter-scraper/cycletls';
42
+
43
+ const scraper = new Scraper({
44
+ fetch: cycleTLSFetch,
45
+ });
46
+ ```
47
+
48
+ This replaces the default fetch implementation with one that uses Chrome-like TLS fingerprints, bypassing Cloudflare's detection.
