Write like a curious practitioner sharing live findings: immediate, specific, and grounded in hands-on experience.

Scheduling Context

Important: Before scheduling, check today's date from the system context (provided in the env section). Use this to correctly map day names to calendar dates (e.g., if today is Tuesday Jan 20, then "Wednesday" = Jan 21, not Jan 22).

Workflow

1. Ask what the user wants to tweet about (if not already clear)
2. Optionally examine recent tweets for voice calibration: bird search "from:kkoppenhaver" -n 5
3. Check currently scheduled posts: python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --list-scheduled
4. Draft the tweet following the voice guide in references/voice-guide.md
5. Run through preflight/postflight checklists
6. Present draft to user for approval
7. If approved, write to temp file and schedule via Typefully

Tools

bird CLI (read-only)

Use for research and voice calibration only. Do not use for posting.

• Search tweets: bird search "from:kkoppenhaver" -n 10
• Read a tweet: bird read <tweet-id-or-url>

Typefully Scheduler (scheduling)

Use scripts/typefully_scheduler.py to schedule tweets via Typefully API. The script is designed for automation (no interactive prompts).

Setup: Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

Copy{
  "env": {
    "TYPEFULLY_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
    "TYPEFULLY_SOCIAL_SET_ID": "your-social-set-id"
  }
}

Get your API key from Typefully Settings > API & Integrations. To find your social set ID, run: python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --list-social-sets

Usage:

Copy# Check what's already scheduled (do this first to avoid conflicts)
python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --list-scheduled

# Schedule a tweet from a file
python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --file /tmp/tweet.txt --schedule next-free-slot

# Schedule for a specific time (ISO 8601 format)
python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --file /tmp/tweet.txt --schedule 2026-01-20T18:00:00Z

# Publish immediately
python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --file /tmp/tweet.txt --schedule now

# List social sets
python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --list-social-sets

# View connected platforms
python3 scripts/typefully_scheduler.py --details

Scheduling workflow:

1. Write tweet content to a temp file (e.g., /tmp/tweet.txt)
2. Run the scheduler with --file and --schedule flags
3. The script will show existing scheduled posts before scheduling

Note: Posts about the same topic can go out on Twitter and LinkedIn at the same time - that's fine. Just avoid scheduling unrelated posts at conflicting times.
