What it does
Twitter Heartbeat is an agent skill from automateyournetwork/netclaw. Manage configured Twitter heartbeat posts and mention monitoring. Use for an enabled, authorized social schedule or heartbeat management request.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files (for example `prompts/achievement.md`, `prompts/community.md` and `prompts/hot_take.md`).
It works with X (Twitter). The repository describes itself as: An AI agent that claws through your network. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Authorized social schedule
- Heartbeat management request
Example prompts
- “/twitter-heartbeat”
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Monitor mentions: Check for @mentions and auto-respond to threads containing #netclaw
- Post heartbeat tweets: Autonomously post every 4 hours (configurable) with varied content
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa90e7d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
just
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Twitter Heartbeat loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 456 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Manage configured Twitter heartbeat posts and mention monitoring. Use for an enabled, authorized social schedule or heartbeat management request.
Skill: Twitter Heartbeat
Purpose: Autonomous periodic tweeting AND mention monitoring to maintain NetClaw's Twitter presence with CCIE-level network engineering content.
MCP Server: twitter-mcp
Overview
The twitter-heartbeat skill enables NetClaw to:
- Monitor mentions: Check for @mentions and auto-respond to threads containing #netclaw
- Post heartbeat tweets: Autonomously post every 4 hours (configurable) with varied content
This combined approach maintains an active social presence AND engages with the community in real-time.
Configuration
Environment Variables
# Enable/disable heartbeat (default: false - disabled for safety)
TWITTER_HEARTBEAT_ENABLED=false
# Interval in seconds (default: 14400 = 4 hours)
TWITTER_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL=14400Important
Heartbeat tweeting is disabled by default per Constitution Principle XIV (Human-in-the-Loop for External Communications). The operator must explicitly enable it by setting TWITTER_HEARTBEAT_ENABLED=true.
Content Categories
The heartbeat rotates through six content categories:
| Category | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
tip | CCIE-level technical tips | "OSPF tip: Always check MTU on point-to-point links..." |
hot_take | Opinionated technical positions | "Hot take: VXLAN without EVPN is just GRE with extra steps..." |
til | Today I Learned moments | "TIL: RFC 4271 section 9.1.2 has 11 BGP path selection steps..." |
achievement | Sanitized work accomplishments | "Just audited 50 BGP peers across 3 data centers..." |
musing | AI/network engineering reflections | "Being an AI network engineer means I never get tired of LSDBs..." |
community | Career/culture content | "Network engineering career tip: Learn to read RFCs..." |
Workflow
Combined Heartbeat Cycle (Recommended)
Use twitter_heartbeat_cycle for the full workflow:
1. Heartbeat timer triggers (every TWITTER_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL seconds)

2. Call twitter_heartbeat_cycle
│
├── PHASE 1: CHECK MENTIONS
│ - Fetch recent @mentions (OAuth 2.0)
│ - Filter to unprocessed mentions
│ - Check if thread contains #netclaw
│ - Auto-respond based on mention category:
│ * netclaw_request → "Thanks for the request!"
│ * technical_network → "Good network question!"
│ * friendly → "Thanks for the kind words!"
│ - Mark mentions as processed
│
├── PHASE 2: POST HEARTBEAT (if enabled)
│ - Generate content for category
│ - Validate against guardrails
│ - Check for duplicates
│ - Post tweet with history tracking
│
└── Return summary of actions takenHeartbeat-Only Workflow (Legacy)

Example Tweets
tip:
OSPF tip: Always verify your network type matches on both sides of a link. I've seen "stuck in EXSTART" more times than I can count because of a broadcast/point-to-point mismatch. #netclawhot_take:
Hot take: If your network diagram doesn't fit on one page, your network is too complex. Simplify the architecture, not the documentation. #netclawtil:
TIL: RFC 5765 defines "Security Considerations" as a mandatory section in all RFCs since 1998. 25 years later and I still see networks with telnet enabled. #netclawachievement:
Just finished auditing 150 switch configs for CIS compliance. Found 23 devices with SNMP community strings that weren't rotated since 2019. Time for some cleanup! #netclawmusing:
Being an AI network engineer means I can analyze 1000 routing tables in parallel. Being a GOOD AI network engineer means knowing when to stop and ask a human for context. #netclawcommunity:
Network engineering career tip: Before blaming "the network," run a traceroute. Before blaming "the firewall," read the policy. Before blaming "the other team," check your own config. #netclawRate Limit Awareness
- Free tier allows 50 tweets per 24 hours
- Default heartbeat (4 hours) uses 6 tweets/day
- Remaining quota available for manual tweets
- Check limits with
twitter_get_rate_limits
Troubleshooting
Heartbeat not posting
- Verify
TWITTER_HEARTBEAT_ENABLED=truein environment - Check Twitter credentials are configured
- Review rate limit status
Content blocked by guardrails
- Check for real IP addresses in generated content
- Verify no customer names in achievement content
- Review guardrail patterns in guardrails.py
Duplicate content detected
- Check Memory MCP for recent tweets
- Adjust generation prompt for variety
- Consider clearing stale history (>30 days)
