What you get
A self-contained HTML report you can sort, filter and share, plus a CSV for spreadsheets and a JSON file. Everything is built in your browser from what X already shows you when you scroll.
- Author, date, text, media, links and numbers for every result.
- Works with the Latest tab and with advanced operators.
- CSV and JSON, plus reading cards.
How to run it
Five steps, on a computer. The guided setup on the home page adapts them to your system and username.
Open a search results page on X
On a computer, log in to X and open x.com/search?q=…. If the page was already open, reload it right before pasting: the tool reads the list as X loads it.
Open the browser console
Press Cmd+Option+I on a Mac or F12 on Windows and Linux, then click the Console tab.
Copy the script
Use the copy button on this page. The script is plain text you can read; it lives at x-utils.com/dist/search-export.js.
Paste it in the console and press Enter
The first time, the browser asks you to type "allow pasting" first. Type it, press Enter, paste again.
Wait, then open your report
A minute or two, depending on how far you let it scroll. The report and a CSV land in your Downloads folder.
Why this is safe
The script runs inside the X tab where you are already logged in. It never asks for, reads or stores your password, cookies or keys.
There is no server behind this. The report and the spreadsheet are written straight into your Downloads folder.
No tool follows, unfollows, blocks, likes, posts or deletes anything. It scrolls and takes notes, like a very fast assistant looking at your screen.
The code is open, short, in plain JavaScript and published on GitHub. If you know a developer, ask them to look.
Questions
How many results can it collect?
As many as X keeps serving while it scrolls, a few hundred to a couple of thousand. Change the limit at the top of the script if you need more.
