XYMake – Turn Your Posts into LLM-Ready Data

I just built XYMake ( https://xymake.com ), a tool that lets you convert any X (Twitter) thread into clean markdown, making your conversations accessible for LLMs, MCPs, or any API. ## What it does: - Transforms any X thread URL into markdown by simply changing "x.com" to "xymake.com" in the URL - OAuth2 login to "free your data" and make your threads available - Auto-generates OG images with token counts and participant info for easy sharing - Serves different content types based on whether the request is from a crawler, browser, or agent ## Why I built it: I believe people should have the right to own and use their own data. While X/Twitter uses our content to train Grok, we should be able to leverage our own conversations for similar purposes. I built this as a proof of concept in one day (what started as a 30-minute experiment turned into a 10-hour flow state). It's built entirely on Cloudflare Workers and uses some interesting techniques to serve different content types to different consumers. ## Technical highlights: - Request identification to serve HTML+OG images to crawlers while providing raw markdown to agents - Preloading OG image generation using ctx.waitUntil for near-instant loading when shared - Optimized OG image rendering across platforms using workers-og Try it out with any X thread - just replace "x.com" with "xymake.com"!
