It means using the "guest token" (gt) for sending GraphQL queries. The gt is public and is distributed via the twitter.com public web page. The gt is the same for every member of the public.

To see the gt, read the contents of twitter.com

For example, using Chrome

    chrome view-source:mobile.twitter.com  
    Ctrl-F gt=

or curl

    curl https://mobile.twitter.com|grep -o gt=[0-9]*

To retrieve tweets three steps are required: 1. retrieve the "guest token" (gt), 2. retrieve the "REST ID" (rest_id) for the twitter.com user and 3. submit a GraphQL query to retrieve the user's tweets.

Javascript provided by Twitter in the twitter.com can do these three steps automatically (but this requires using a Javascript-enabled browser), or it can be done without a browser, e.g., with a different scripting language (personally I use the shell).

For example, some folks use Python:
