+"""X (Twitter) search via the Grok CLI — no X credential of any kind.
+
+The `grok` CLI (https://x.ai/cli) exposes X search tools natively
+(`x_keyword_search`, `x_semantic_search`, `x_thread_fetch`, `x_user_search`).
+Reaching X through it needs no X account, no browser cookies, and no
+`XAI_API_KEY` — only an installed and signed-in `grok`.
+
+Install: curl -fsSL https://x.ai/cli/install.sh | bash   (or npm i -g @xai-official/grok)
+Auth:    grok login
+
+Invocation constraints, all measured, all load-bearing:
+
+* **Never pass `--json-schema`.** Constrained decoding competes with tool use:
+  the search silently does not run and the model fills the schema's required
+  fields from training data instead. Measured with an interleaved A/B
+  controlling for time: plain output returned verified in-window posts on 4 of
+  4 calls, `--json-schema` on 1 of 4.
+* **Never use X tool names in `--tools`.** Grok 1.0.46 treats those server-side
+  names as unknown local tools and restores the full local toolset. Empty
+  lists and `--disallowed-tools '*'` also leave local tools enabled.
+* **Never pass `--sandbox strict`.** Under Grok CLI 1.0.41 on WSL2 every
+  inference request failed DNS resolution (``/etc/resolv.conf`` links to
+  ``/mnt/wsl``, outside the profile's readable system paths) and both attempts
+  hit the timeout. The looser profiles leave reads unrestricted, and
+  the generated agent profile leaves the audited child no local tools.
+* **Do pass `--output-format json`.** Grok CLI 1.0.5 narrates tool use and
+  then fences a JSON array; the field-block parser treats that as empty
+  (``no items parsed``). JSON stdout is the CLI's supported way to skip the
+  preamble without constrained decoding. See #1051.
+
+Because retrieval is performed by a language model rather than an API client,
+its output can be *confidently wrong* in a way no other backend's can. Every
+returned post is therefore validated against the requested window via its
+snowflake timestamp before it is allowed into the item flow — see
+`_validate_items`. Author matching and schema shape are not sufficient: a
+fabricated post carries a plausible handle and a numeric id by construction.

+
+    ``deadline`` is the X chain's shared ``time.monotonic()`` budget (see
