Key features:

- Three ways to trigger: toolbar popup, inline download button on every tweet's action bar, or right-click context menu (Save / Copy as Markdown / Add to Obsidian)
- Copy Markdown to clipboard, download as a file, or hand off to Obsidian
- One-click Add to Obsidian button — opens Obsidian via the obsidian:// URI scheme with the rendered Markdown prefilled; optional vault name to target a specific vault
- Optional vault subfolder for the Obsidian handoff so notes land inside a specific folder (e.g. Tweets or Inbox/Tweets) — leave blank to use the vault root
- Obsidian-friendly frontmatter (opt-in): wikilinked [[@handle]] author for instant backlinks, synthesized title, published/created date split, prose description snippet, and a tags array — plus all the existing engagement metadata for Dataview queries
- Capture link cards from tweets: title, source domain, and the Open Graph preview image
- Full support for long-form X Articles (formerly Notes) with headings, lists, and code blocks
- Extract tweets, nested threads, and quote tweets into clean Markdown
- Preserve quoted-post structure and context — including the original author's name and handle
- Multi-view popup: primary actions stay focused up front, set-once preferences live in a Settings panel behind a gear icon
- Show or hide the inline button via a toggle if it conflicts with another extension's icon
- Inline button can be configured to copy to clipboard instead of download
- Optional auto-close of new tabs opened via the inline button or context menu after export
- Download embedded X media locally alongside your md file to prevent link rot
- Optional Downloads subfolder so Markdown files and images land inside a chosen subfolder of your Downloads folder, instead of cluttering the root
- Rich YAML frontmatter with author, handle, date, source URL, content type, and engagement stats (likes, reposts, replies, bookmarks, views)
- Optional X-style engagement row directly in the Markdown body (likes, reposts, replies, bookmarks, views) — toggle independently of the YAML frontmatter
- Automatically expand truncated posts and strip engagement buttons, follow prompts, and trackers
- Multi-language UI: English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese (Simplified), Arabic, and Persian. Content extraction works on any language regardless of UI translation
- Light and dark mode popup, matching your system preferences

Great for:

- Importing X content into Obsidian, Notion, Logseq, Hugo, or any Markdown-based PKM system
- Exporting clean text for LLM prompts, RAG pipelines, or AI training workflows
- Archiving research threads, news references, and long-form articles offline
- Building a searchable Second Brain from your Twitter/X activity
- Preparing source material for writing, translation, or summarization

Why use it:

- One-click workflow from any tweet, thread, or article page — popup, inline icon, or right-click menu
- First-class Obsidian path: hit Add to Obsidian and the note lands in your vault, no plugin or sync setup required
- Clean, well-structured Markdown output that is easy to edit and index
- Local image archiving so your saved content never has broken links
- Zero-API architecture — works directly in your browser with no API keys or accounts
- Processes everything locally on your device. No analytics, no tracking, no data leaves your machine.

Current limitations:

- Focused on x.com content extraction
- Videos and GIFs are not exported as playable media files
- Requires a page reload if the extension was installed or updated after opening the tab. This is intentional to avoid silent failures and ensure content is extracted reliably from a properly initialized page.
- Some content may stop working if x.com changes its page structure significantly
