What This Skill Does

The Typefully skill for OpenClaw provides a powerful interface to manage your cross-platform social media presence. By integrating directly with the Typefully API, it allows you to automate drafting, scheduling, and publishing across X, LinkedIn, Mastodon, Threads, and Bluesky. This skill centralizes your social media management, enabling you to treat multiple platforms as a single unified workflow. Whether you need to publish urgent announcements, thread complex thoughts, or schedule content for optimal engagement times, the Typefully skill handles the heavy lifting via a simple command-line interface.

Installation

To start using the Typefully skill, ensure you have the OpenClaw agent installed and configured. Follow these steps:

1. Create a Typefully account at https://typefully.com.
2. Link your preferred social media accounts within the Typefully dashboard.
3. Navigate to your Typefully settings to generate an API key.
4. Install the skill by running the command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/thesethrose/typefully.
5. Set the required environment variable in your system configuration: export TYPEFULLY_API_KEY="your-typefully-api-key".

Use Cases

• Unified Threading: Write long-form threads and have the agent automatically partition and publish them as a connected thread across supported platforms.
• Content Pipeline: Schedule an entire week of posts in one go using the --schedule flag, ensuring consistent activity without daily manual entry.
• Automated Media Publishing: Use the upload-media command to handle visual content, then attach it to drafts before scheduling.
• Audit and Clean-up: Use the filtering commands to manage your content pipeline, delete stale drafts, or identify published posts for performance tracking.

Example Prompts

1. "Typefully, create a thread with these five points about our new software update and schedule it for next Tuesday at 9 AM."
2. "List all my scheduled posts for this week to make sure I haven't missed any gaps in my content calendar."
3. "Upload this image file to Typefully and create a new draft for LinkedIn announcing the launch, then publish it immediately."

Tips & Limitations

• API Limits: Be mindful of your Typefully plan's API usage limits, especially when running automated scripts.
• Draft IDs: Always verify your --social-set-id before bulk-creating drafts to ensure content is posted to the correct network.
• Timezones: When using the --schedule flag, always ensure your input uses ISO 8601 formatting to avoid scheduling errors caused by timezone mismatches.
• Media: For large files, ensure they are in a standard format supported by Typefully to ensure seamless processing.
