The problem

Bookmarks on X are easy to save and hard to get back out.

What I built

  • A Python command-line tool that exports every bookmark through the official X API, with OAuth 2.0 and PKCE.
  • Output as Markdown plus a normalized SQLite database of 8 tables.
  • Built and reviewed; not yet run on a real account.

How it stays safe

  • Official API only, with your own login.
