name: wechat-auto-publishing-complete description: Use this skill to fully reproduce and operate a local end-to-end WeChat Official Account publishing workflow: prepare the environment, validate dependencies, configure non-sensitive placeholders for credentials, gather source material, draft articles, prepare cover and body images, assemble a WeChat-ready Markdown package, publish to draft, optionally submit for formal publication, poll status, archive outputs, and attach scheduling or alerting. Use whenever the user wants a complete reproducible公众号自动发文 skill with environment setup, templates, runbooks, and execution scaffolding, while keeping all secrets and personal account details outside the skill package. Key real-world findings: freepublish does not always behave like manual platform publishing for homepage visibility, production mode should often default to draft-only, image files must be validated by real format rather than extension alone, and multi-account deployments should use isolated directories.

WeChat Auto Publishing Complete

Use this skill to reproduce, document, and operate a complete local WeChat Official Account auto-publishing workflow without embedding any secrets, private account details, or personal identifiers in the skill package.

This skill is intentionally broader than a minimal workflow note. It includes the operational context needed to reproduce the workflow on a fresh machine, while still keeping all sensitive values external.

Core outcome

The desired end state is a reusable local workflow that can do the following:

1. prepare the environment on a new machine
2. gather the day’s source material
3. determine the article angle
4. draft the article in a target style
5. prepare cover.png, image1.jpg, and image2.jpg
6. assemble a publishable Markdown package
7. publish to the WeChat draft box
8. optionally complete formal publication
9. archive outputs and execution results
10. optionally attach scheduling and alerting

Required safety rule

Never store real private values in this skill package.

Do not include:

• real WECHAT_APP_ID
• real WECHAT_APP_SECRET
• real GOOGLE_API_KEY
• any real cookies, tokens, session secrets, API keys, or private IDs
• user-specific公众号 identifiers unless the user explicitly asks for them to be hard-coded
• any private filesystem paths that reveal personal context unless rewritten as placeholders

When documenting configuration, only include:

• variable names
• placeholder values
• lookup order
• validation methods
• safe example file structures
