About twitter-x-posts
Twitter/X Posts is a marketing copywriting skill that helps agents and users produce publish-ready post copy, threads, and platform-optimized content for X (formerly Twitter). It solves the problem of writing content that actually performs on the platform by encoding X's character limits, engagement-optimal lengths, thread structure, and the behavior of X's recommendation algorithm into concrete, reference-table guidance. The output is character-counted text with thread structure and platform-compliant formatting that can be published directly.
The skill provides tables for standard and premium character limits, optimal lengths per use case, a hook-value-CTA post structure, and thread formatting conventions. It summarizes signal weights in the Grok-driven algorithm (replies and author replies weighted far above likes, bookmarks as a newer signal, media and video boosts, external-link penalties, and daily post limits), TweepCred thresholds, and early-distribution mechanics. Further sections cover link optimization and placement, the reach and engagement differences across Regular, Premium, and Premium+ tiers, video specifications, a recommended content ratio, Twitter Cards and social SEO, and image dimension specs for design agents. It also points to related marketing skills such as paid-ads-strategy, influencer-marketing, and programmatic-seo.
It is aimed at marketers, social media managers, and content or design agents who need to generate X posts and threads quickly while accounting for the platform's engagement dynamics. It is purely advisory content — a knowledge reference with no code, no external calls, and no credentials — so it has no operational prerequisites beyond wanting to write for X.
FAQ
What does this skill actually produce?
Publish-ready X copy: post text with a character count, hashtags if used, thread structure when a thread is requested, and image specs when a design agent needs dimensions.
What are the character limits it works with?
280 characters for standard posts and up to 25,000 for X Premium subscribers. It also notes URLs count as 23 characters via t.co and emoji count roughly two characters each.
Does it explain how the X algorithm ranks posts?
Yes. It summarizes signal weights in the Grok-based recommendation system — replies and author replies far outweigh likes, bookmarks are a growing signal, media and video boost exposure, external links reduce reach, and posting more than about 10 times a day cuts later visibility.
Does it require any account access or API?
No. It is advisory reference content only, with no code, no external API calls, and no credentials. It informs the copy you write but does not post on your behalf.
How should I handle links to maximize reach?
It recommends placing links in a reply rather than the main post, keeping to roughly one link per five posts, and notes that Premium and Premium+ tiers get better link-post engagement than regular accounts.
