Agent Reach — Usage Guide

Upstream tools for 13+ platforms. Call them directly.

Run agent-reach doctor to check which channels are available.

⚠️ Workspace Rules

Never create files in the agent workspace. Use /tmp/ for temporary output and ~/.agent-reach/ for persistent data.

Web — Any URL

curl -s "https://r.jina.ai/URL"

mcporter call 'exa.web_search_exa(query: "query", numResults: 5)'
mcporter call 'exa.get_code_context_exa(query: "code question", tokensNum: 3000)'

Twitter/X (xreach)

xreach search "query" -n 10 --json          # search
xreach tweet URL_OR_ID --json                # read tweet (supports /status/ and /article/ URLs)

Troubleshooting

Channel not working? Run agent-reach doctor — shows status and fix instructions.
Twitter fetch failed? Ensure undici is installed: npm install -g undici. Configure proxy: agent-reach configure proxy URL.

Setting Up a Channel ("帮我配 XXX")

If a channel needs setup (cookies, Docker, etc.), fetch the install guide: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Panniantong/agent-reach/main/docs/install.md
