Release Tweets
Use when the user asks for a release tweet, launch tweet, X announcement, release thread, changelog-to-tweet rewrite, or social copy for a shipped version. This skill is about release copy, not cutting the release.
Ground The Copy
- Verify the release target before writing confident copy:
- read the relevant
CHANGELOG.mdsection or GitHub release notes - check the tag/release/npm/appcast/artifact state that applies to the project
- distinguish
Unreleased, beta/prerelease, stable, hotfix, and correction releases
- read the relevant
- Do not say a feature shipped only because it is in the top changelog block. Confirm the tag/release/package evidence when available.
- Lead with user-visible wins: features, integrations, workflow improvements, install/update reliability, security fixes.
- Avoid leading with CI, coverage, validation, refactors, internal migrations, or release mechanics unless that is the actual story.
- If evidence is incomplete, say what is unverified and draft with softer wording.
Launch Tweet Shape
- One standard tweet under 280 characters, with room for one URL.
- Typical format:
- product + version
- blank line
- 3-4 compact emoji-led feature bullets
- blank line
- one short punchline
- release/changelog URL
- Use emoji bullets by default for launch tweets. Pick clear, low-noise emoji that match the feature or product; skip only when the user asks for plain text or the release is incident-style.
- Tone: high-signal, compact, confident, a little dry when earned. Not corporate.
- One joke max. Let the feature bullets do the work.
- Put the release/changelog URL at the end.
- Count final raw characters before presenting it as ready to post.
Beta, Hotfix, Correction
- Beta/prerelease:
- make beta status explicit
- avoid implying stable promotion
- phrase as "beta N",
VERSION-beta.N, or "preview" as appropriate
- Hotfix/correction:
- be direct and accountable
- state what slipped, what is fixed, and the new version
- skip jokes unless the user asks for a lighter tone
Threads
- First agree on the generic launch tweet.
- Then write follow-ups one at a time. When the user says
next, provide only the next reply. - Each follow-up should focus on one feature or user workflow.
- Include a docs/release URL for the specific feature when available.
- Avoid repeating the version in every reply when the thread context already has it.
- Good follow-up length: 160-220 raw characters. Hard cap: 280.
Posting And Clipboard
- Draft by default. Do not post to X/Twitter unless the user explicitly asks.
- If asked to copy, use
pbcopyon macOS and report that it is copied. - If asked to post from Peter's setup, prefer the local
bird/xurlworkflow if available, then verify the posted URL. - Never invent media. If the user wants media, use an existing release screenshot/asset or ask for/generate one separately.
Quality Pass
Before final:
- Character count under 280 for each tweet.
- Exact version string and channel.
- Release URL included when requested or expected.
- No unverified claims.
- No more than 3-4 emoji-led bullets in the launch tweet.
- Peter-style concise language; trim filler before trimming facts.

reddit-automation
flowkit-labs/skills
Find Reddit threads where people are genuinely asking for what you offer, then draft short, genuinely helpful replies — disclosing your affiliation honestly and naming your product only when it truly answers the question. Two moves: discovery — scan the right subreddits for real needs (recommendation asks, expressed pain, competitor mentions) and rank the few threads where you can actually help; drafting — write from real experience, respect each community's self-promo rules, and keep a human in the loop to review and post. This markets on Reddit the honest way: contribute value, disclose who you are, never astroturf. Distilled from the playbook behind doany.ai's Reddit agent. Triggers on "find reddit opportunities", "reddit marketing", "reddit automation", "reply on reddit for my product", "reddit community engagement", "reddit lead gen", or any ask to turn Reddit threads into genuine, disclosed marketing replies.
