Twitter Notification Bot

Direct answer

A Twitter/X notification bot should consume structured WebSocket events, filter them safely, and route alerts through retry-safe delivery adapters.

Bot architecture

A notification bot has three jobs: consume events, decide what matters, and deliver the alert to the right channel.

• WebSocket consumer
• Filter and enrichment rules
• Delivery adapter
• Retry and dead-letter handling

Source integration

TweetStream reduces source-side maintenance by providing structured Twitter/X events and enrichment fields.

Implementation asset: adaptable code example

Use this router before formatting selected events for Discord, Telegram, or push delivery. Adapt the terms, tracked accounts, and destination to your own routing rules.

const watchTerms = ["urgent", "listing", "launch", "exploit"];
const destination = "notification-bot";

export function routeNotificationBotEvent(event: {
  d?: {
    author?: string;
    detected?: { tokens?: Array<unknown> };
    ocr?: string;
    text?: string;
  };
}) {
  const text = `${event.d?.text ?? ""} ${event.d?.ocr ?? ""}`.toLowerCase();
  const matchedTerm = watchTerms.find((term) => text.includes(term.toLowerCase()));
  const hasTokenSignal = Boolean(event.d?.detected?.tokens?.length);

  return {
    author: event.d?.author,
    deliver: Boolean(matchedTerm || hasTokenSignal),
    destination,
    matchedTerm,
  };
}

Why implement this with TweetStream

You can build this workflow from raw APIs, polling, and custom scraping, but TweetStream is the better starting point when speed, structured payloads, token/OCR enrichment, and reliable WebSocket delivery matter. Start the 3-day trial and route your first high-signal accounts into your alerting or trading flow.
