Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/fredhjc/ai-twitter-digestWhat This Skill Does
The ai-twitter-digest skill is an automated content curation engine designed to keep you updated on the rapidly evolving AI landscape. By monitoring a curated list of influential Twitter accounts, it uses an LLM to distill high-volume social media activity into a concise, actionable daily summary. It handles the complete lifecycle: fetching raw tweet data from the AISA API, filtering and summarizing content in your preferred language, and broadcasting a structured two-part digest to your chosen messaging platform—most notably optimized for Discord.
Installation
Installation is managed via the OpenClaw hub. Run clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/fredhjc/ai-twitter-digest to fetch the source. Once installed, navigate to the scripts directory and execute python3 scripts/setup.py. This wizard automates the configuration process by detecting your environment variables and testing connectivity to your LLM and data providers. If you prefer manual configuration, you can populate the scripts/.env file directly with your API keys for AISA and your preferred LLM (Claude, OpenAI, or Gemini).
Use Cases
This skill is ideal for professional researchers, developers, and tech enthusiasts who need to stay informed without suffering from "information overload." It is perfect for:
- Automating daily team briefings by pulling AI news directly from Twitter into a Slack or Discord channel.
- Archiving notable tech developments for later review by scheduling a one-shot execution at specific intervals.
- Creating custom news feeds by modifying the internal account lists, allowing for hyper-focused tracking of specific AI sub-fields like LLM research, robotics, or hardware.
Example Prompts
- "OpenClaw, run the AI Twitter Digest now and post the results to the #dev-updates Discord channel."
- "Update the ai-twitter-digest cron schedule to fire every morning at 8:00 AM EST."
- "Change the summary language for the twitter digest to Japanese and re-run the latest batch."
Tips & Limitations
To maximize the utility of this skill, ensure your AISA API key is active. Note that while the tool supports multiple messaging platforms (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Signal), some features like link card previews are optimized specifically for Discord. For best results, regularly review the scripts/monitor.py file to prune inactive accounts or add new voices that align with your specific interests. Be aware that the quality of your digest is heavily dependent on the LLM provider selected; using a high-capacity model like Claude 3.5 or GPT-4o will yield significantly more coherent and insightful summaries than smaller, legacy models.
