So looks like Solana just re-invented frames. https://x.com/solana/status/1805587979723063440 We know frames are cool, but I couldn't figure out how exactly they can make it work on twitter (they mention this in the video). Then I thought harder... Browser extensions can inject code into the page. So could the browser extension be looking at the links, and adding the extra missing frame functionality into the client? Maybe someone smarter than me can tell me this is impossible. But if it is... Could someone create a "Farcaster extension" which allows me to see and interact with frames even when they are posted on twitter?

I skimmed through the docs multiple times and nowhere does it explain how it works with Twitter/X, I tried finding info in Twitter/X too. https://solana.com/docs/advanced/actions

It seems like it's indeed how I imagined. Wallet Extensions injecting the extra elements into the browser window. Very cool. Hope to see this for Ethereum stuff soon enough Except the coordination required is non-trivial

Can you show me the part where it says it's an extension? Twitter has all this weird undocumented stuff, like there was a way to play DOOM right inside a tweet 3 years back (like literally, you clicked |> and you could play DOOM with keyboard, it was running DOSBOX!). It used "twitter:card" meta tags (click on the tweet content to see source codes) but it no longer works. https://x.com/dixitbavu/status/1375536872068288513
