SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires front-matter, highlight.js, marked, remark-cjk-friendly, remark-parse, remark-stringify, unified, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Posting content to X (Twitter) programmatically is blocked by anti-automation detection that rejects Playwright/Puppeteer and synthetic paste events. This Skill drives a real Chrome browser via the Chrome DevTools Protocol with a persistent login profile, letting you compose posts, videos, quote tweets, and long-form articles without fighting bot detection. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Regular Posts: Compose text posts with up to 4 images using real clipboard paste keystrokes that bypass synthetic-event detection. - Video & Quote Tweets: Attach MP4/MOV/WebM videos or quote an existing tweet URL with a comment. - X Articles: Convert Markdown (with frontmatter title/cover, images, and CJK-friendly formatting) into X's long-form article editor, inserting images at placeholder positions. - Use Case: Draft a blog post in Markdown, then run the article script to have Chrome open x.com/compose/articles with the title, cover image, formatted body, and inline images already filled in for your review. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to post "Hello from my skill" with the image ./photo.png to X, and it will open Chrome with the post composed for your review.

Frequently Asked Questions about baoyu-post-to-x

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I post to X (Twitter) from the command line?▼

Run the x-browser.ts script with Bun, passing your text and optional --image flags. It launches real Chrome with a persistent profile, fills the compose editor via CDP, and leaves the browser open so you can review and publish manually.

How to publish a Markdown article to X Articles?▼

Use the x-article.ts script with your Markdown file, optionally adding --cover and --title. It converts Markdown to HTML, uploads the cover, pastes the body into the DraftJS editor, and replaces image placeholders with actual images. X Premium is required.

Why use real Chrome instead of Playwright for X automation?▼

X detects and ignores synthetic input events from automation frameworks like Playwright and Puppeteer. This skill launches genuine Chrome with --disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled and sends real paste keystrokes via osascript or xdotool, which X accepts.

Does this X posting skill work on Linux and Windows?▼

Yes, it is cross-platform. macOS uses Swift/AppKit and osascript for clipboard and paste, Linux uses wl-copy/xclip plus xdotool or ydotool, and Windows uses PowerShell SendKeys. Chrome and the Bun runtime are required on all platforms.

Why does image pasting fail when posting to X?▼

Image paste usually fails because the terminal lacks Accessibility permission on macOS, or xdotool/ydotool is missing on Linux. Run the check-paste-permissions.ts script to diagnose Chrome, clipboard, and keystroke issues, then grant the indicated permissions.

What are the limitations of automated X posting with this approach?▼

Scripts only fill content into the browser; the user reviews and publishes manually unless --submit is passed. Regular videos are limited to 140 seconds without Premium, articles require X Premium, and the first run needs a manual login to save the session.
