What This Skill Does

The Typefully skill for OpenClaw is a powerful command-line interface that enables seamless integration between your workflow and your Typefully social media account. By utilizing the v2 API, this skill allows users to create, schedule, edit, delete, and list drafts across multiple platforms, including X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, and Mastodon. Whether you are drafting a simple update, a complex multi-platform thread, or managing an entire queue of content, this skill streamlines your social media operations directly from your terminal.

Installation

To begin using this skill, install it via the OpenClaw hub: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/chapati23/typefully-drafts. Once installed, you must authenticate the agent by providing your Typefully API key. You can store this securely via environment variables (TYPEFULLY_API_KEY) or your local password store. Optionally, if you manage multiple social sets, define your specific social set ID to prevent ambiguity during execution. Finally, ensure 'Development mode' is enabled in your Typefully account settings to easily retrieve draft IDs for editing and scheduling operations.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for content creators, social media managers, and developers who prefer text-based workflows. Use it to automate cross-platform posting without manually switching browser tabs. It is particularly effective for teams that store content drafts in version control, as you can pipe local text files directly into the Typefully queue via stdin. It is also an excellent choice for batch-scheduling posts when you need to populate your content calendar rapidly.

Example Prompts

1. "Use the typefully skill to list my 5 most recent drafts to see what is ready for review."
2. "Draft a new thread on Typefully about my latest open source project. Use the text from this file and schedule it to the next free slot."
3. "Update the draft with ID 8196074 to include a link to my new blog post and switch the platform to both X and LinkedIn."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize the utility of this skill, familiarize yourself with the `

separator, which is essential for creating threaded content. Be mindful of the--platformargument; failing to specify it will default to X, which might not be your intent for business-focused content. Note that the 'now' publication setting triggers an immediate post; always verify your content before using this command. Because the script outputs raw JSON, users are encouraged to installjq` for readable, formatted terminal output. If you encounter API errors, consult the standard HTTP status codes, as the script provides clear feedback for 401 (unauthorized) or 429 (rate-limited) responses.
