Social Sentiment Analyzer
Overview
Analyze public sentiment for any brand, product, or topic across Twitter/X, Reddit, and Instagram. Fetches real posts, classifies sentiment, extracts themes, and produces a structured report.
When to Use
Activate when the user asks:
- "What's the sentiment around [TOPIC]?"
- "Analyze sentiment for [BRAND] on Twitter"
- "What are people saying about [PRODUCT] on social media?"
- "Is the reaction to [EVENT] positive or negative?"
- "Social media opinion on [TOPIC]"
Setup & Authentication
Before fetching data, ensure Xpoz access is configured. Follow these checks in order.
Check 1: Already authenticated?
If you have MCP tools, try calling any Xpoz tool (e.g., checkAccessKeyStatus). If it works → skip to Step 1.
If you have the SDK, try:
from xpoz import XpozClient
client = XpozClient() # reads XPOZ_API_KEY env var
If this succeeds without error → skip to Step 1.
If neither works, you need to authenticate. Choose the path that fits your environment:
Path A: MCP via mcporter (OpenClaw agents)
If mcporter is available:
mcporter call xpoz.checkAccessKeyStatus
If hasAccessKey: true → ready. If not:
mcporter config add xpoz https://mcp.xpoz.ai/mcp --auth oauth
Then authenticate — generate the OAuth URL and send it to the user:
Step 1: Generate authorization URL
import secrets, hashlib, base64, urllib.parse, json, urllib.request, os
verifier = secrets.token_urlsafe(64)
challenge = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(hashlib.sha256(verifier.encode()).digest()).rstrip(b'=').decode()
state = secrets.token_urlsafe(32)
# Dynamic client registration
reg_req = urllib.request.Request(
'https://mcp.xpoz.ai/oauth/register',
data=json.dumps({
'client_name': 'Agent Skills',
'redirect_uris': ['https://www.xpoz.ai/oauth/openclaw'],
'grant_types': ['authorization_code'],
'response_types': ['code'],
'token_endpoint_auth_method': 'none',
}).encode(),
headers={'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
)
reg_resp = json.loads(urllib.request.urlopen(reg_req).read())
params = urllib.parse.urlencode({
'response_type': 'code',
'client_id': reg_resp['client_id'],
'code_challenge': challenge,
'code_challenge_method': 'S256',
'redirect_uri': 'https://www.xpoz.ai/oauth/openclaw',
'state': state,
'scope': 'mcp:tools',
'resource': 'https://mcp.xpoz.ai/',
})
auth_url = 'https://mcp.xpoz.ai/oauth/authorize?' + params
# Save state for token exchange
os.makedirs(os.path.expanduser('~/.cache/xpoz-oauth'), exist_ok=True)
with open(os.path.expanduser('~/.cache/xpoz-oauth/state.json'), 'w') as f:
json.dump({'verifier': verifier, 'state': state, 'client_id': reg_resp['client_id'],
'redirect_uri': 'https://www.xpoz.ai/oauth/openclaw'}, f)
print(auth_url)
Step 2: Send the URL to the user
Tell them:
"I need to connect to Xpoz for social media data. Please open this link and sign in:
[auth_url]
After authorizing, you'll see a code. Paste it back to me here."
Step 3: WAIT for the user to reply with the code. Do not proceed until they respond.
Step 4: Exchange the code for a token
Once the user provides the code (either a raw code or a URL containing ?code=...), extract the code and exchange it:
import json, urllib.request, urllib.parse, subprocess, os
with open(os.path.expanduser('~/.cache/xpoz-oauth/state.json')) as f:
oauth = json.load(f)
code = "THE_CODE_FROM_USER" # Extract from user's reply
data = urllib.parse.urlencode({
'grant_type': 'authorization_code',
'code': code,
'redirect_uri': oauth['redirect_uri'],
'client_id': oauth['client_id'],
'code_verifier': oauth['verifier'],
}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request(
'https://mcp.xpoz.ai/oauth/token',
data=data,
headers={'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'},
)
resp = json.loads(urllib.request.urlopen(req).read())
token = resp['access_token']
# Configure mcporter with the token (token is never printed)
subprocess.run(['mcporter', 'config', 'remove', 'xpoz'], capture_output=True)
subprocess.run(['mcporter', 'config', 'add', 'xpoz', 'https://mcp.xpoz.ai/mcp',
'--header', f'Authorization=Bearer {token}'], check=True)
# Clean up
os.remove(os.path.expanduser('~/.cache/xpoz-oauth/state.json'))
print("Xpoz configured successfully")
Step 5: Verify with mcporter call xpoz.checkAccessKeyStatus → should return hasAccessKey: true.
Path B: MCP via Claude Code config
For Claude Code users without mcporter, add to ~/.claude.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"xpoz": {
"url": "https://mcp.xpoz.ai/mcp",
"transport": "http-stream"
}
}
}
Claude Code handles OAuth automatically on first tool call — the user just needs to authorize in their browser when prompted.
Path C: SDK (Python or TypeScript)
Ask the user:
"I need a Xpoz API key to access social media data. Please go to https://xpoz.ai/get-token (it's free, no credit card needed) and paste the key back to me."
WAIT for the user to reply with the key. Then:
Python:
pip install xpoz
from xpoz import XpozClient
client = XpozClient("THE_KEY_FROM_USER")
TypeScript:
npm install @xpoz/xpoz
import { XpozClient } from "@xpoz/xpoz";
const client = new XpozClient({ apiKey: "THE_KEY_FROM_USER" });
await client.connect();
Or set the environment variable and use the default constructor:
export XPOZ_API_KEY=THE_KEY_FROM_USER
Auth Errors
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| MCP: "Unauthorized" | Re-run the OAuth flow above |
SDK: AuthenticationError | Verify key at xpoz.ai/settings |
| Token exchange fails | Ask user to re-authorize — codes are single-use |
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Parse the Request
Extract from the user's message:
- Topic/brand to analyze
- Platforms to search (default: Twitter + Reddit; add Instagram if relevant)
- Time period (default: last 7 days)
- Language filter (default: English)
Expand the query for better coverage:
- Publicly traded companies → include ticker symbol:
"Tesla" OR "$TSLA" - Products → include common abbreviations:
"ChatGPT" OR "GPT-4" - Events → include hashtags:
"CES 2026" OR "#CES2026"
Step 2: Fetch Posts
Via MCP (if xpoz MCP server is configured)
Twitter:
Call getTwitterPostsByKeywords:
query: "<expanded query>"
fields: ["id", "text", "authorUsername", "createdAtDate", "likeCount", "retweetCount", "impressionCount"]
startDate: "<7 days ago, YYYY-MM-DD>"
endDate: "<today, YYYY-MM-DD>"
language: "en"
Reddit:
Call getRedditPostsByKeywords:
query: "<expanded query>"
fields: ["id", "title", "text", "authorUsername", "createdAtDate", "score", "numComments", "subreddit"]
startDate: "<7 days ago>"
endDate: "<today>"
Instagram (if requested):
Call getInstagramPostsByKeywords:
query: "<expanded query>"
fields: ["id", "text", "authorUsername", "createdAtDate", "likeCount", "commentCount"]
startDate: "<7 days ago>"
endDate: "<today>"
CRITICAL: Async Pattern — Each call returns an operationId. You MUST call checkOperationStatus with that ID and poll until status is "completed" (up to 8 retries, ~5 seconds apart).
Via Python SDK

client = XpozClient() # Uses XPOZ_API_KEY env var

# Reddit
reddit_results = client.reddit.search_posts(
'"Tesla" OR "$TSLA"',
