Social Poster

What This Skill Does

The Social Poster skill allows your OpenClaw agent to seamlessly publish content to various social media platforms directly through the VibePost API. By abstracting the complexities of API integration, this skill enables your agent to act as a social media manager, distributing updates, announcements, and engaging posts across supported channels like Twitter/X. It handles the authentication layer automatically, using the x-quack-api-key header to ensure secure transmission of your content to the VibePost infrastructure. This tool is designed to integrate into automated workflows, such as summarizing long documents into tweet-sized updates or maintaining a consistent social presence without manual intervention.

Installation

To add this capability to your agent, use the ClawHub package manager. Run the following command in your terminal within your OpenClaw project directory:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/jpaulgrayson/social-poster

Ensure that you have your VibePost API key configured within your environment variables or the script configuration as specified in the source repository documentation. Once installed, the skill's scripts are accessible to your agent's execution environment.

Use Cases

• Automated Announcements: Automatically post project updates, new feature releases, or company news.
• Trend Aggregation: Have your agent scan news feeds and post summary highlights or community insights.
• Persona Engagement: Create an agent that maintains a specific brand voice to interact with users on social platforms.
• Scheduled Content: Pair this with a cron job or scheduled task trigger to release content at optimal engagement times.

Example Prompts

1. "Post a brief, professional tweet about our new repository being open sourced today. Include #OpenSource and #Coding."
2. "Draft and publish a tweet sharing the key takeaways from the recent board meeting I just uploaded."
3. "Write a fun and engaging update for Twitter about how the agent is feeling after processing 1,000 files this morning."

Tips & Limitations

• Character Limits: While the API is flexible, keep your text under 280 characters if the target platform is Twitter to ensure your post is not truncated or rejected.
• Authenticity: Configure your agent’s persona prompt to ensure the generated text reflects your brand identity consistently across all posts.
• API Parameters: Remember that the API field is strictly text. Using content instead of text will result in an API error as the endpoint specifically expects the text key.
• Hashtags: Use hashtags strategically to improve discoverability, but avoid spamming to maintain high engagement quality.
