Building a Twitter Agent

Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:

1. A Twitter developer account
2. The following environment variables set up:
   • GROQ_API_KEY: Your Groq API key

Creating the Agent

First, let's create a basic Twitter agent:

import { createGroq } from "@ai-sdk/groq";
import {
  createContainer,
  createDreams,
  LogLevel,
  twitter,
} from "@daydreamsai/core";
 
// Initialize Groq client
const groq = createGroq({
  apiKey: process.env.GROQ_API_KEY!,
});
 
// Create the agent
const agent = createDreams({
  logger: LogLevel.DEBUG,
  container: createContainer(),
  model: groq("deepseek-r1-distill-llama-70b"),
  extensions: [twitter],
});
 
// Start the agent
await agent.start();

How It Works

The Twitter agent is created using a few key components:

1. Groq Integration: We use Groq's language model for processing and understanding Twitter interactions.

2. Logger: Set to DEBUG level for detailed logging during development.

3. Container: Manages dependencies and services.

4. Twitter Extension: The twitter extension provides built-in capabilities for:

   • Monitoring mentions
   • Replying to tweets
   • Posting new tweets
   • Managing Twitter authentication

Next Steps

• Set up Twitter authentication in your environment variables
• Customize the agent's behavior by adding your own extensions
• Implement specific use cases like auto-replies or content monitoring
