  • Applies to any page intended to be shared on X (Twitter)
  • Auditing social sharing previews
  • Adding social meta tags to a new site

Example prompts

  • “/twitter-cards”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    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 Cards loads about 523 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~523
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.4k

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.

Add Twitter Card meta tags

Pages shared on X without Twitter Cards show only a bare link; Cards add an image and description that significantly increase click-through rates from social traffic.

Quick Reference

  • Add <meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image"> to enable rich previews when shared on X (Twitter)
  • Minimum required tags: twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description
  • X falls back to Open Graph tags (og:title, og:image) if Twitter-specific tags are absent
  • Recommended image size for summary_large_image: 1200×630 px, max 5 MB, JPG/PNG/WebP

Check

Inspect <head> for <meta name="twitter:card">, <meta name="twitter:title">, <meta name="twitter:description">, and <meta name="twitter:image">. Verify the card type is valid (summary or summary_large_image). Test the URL in the X Card Validator.

Fix

Add the required Twitter Card meta tags to the <head>. For article/blog pages use summary_large_image. Ensure twitter:image points to an absolute URL of an image at least 300×157 px (ideally 1200×630 px) under 5 MB.

Explain

Explain how Twitter Cards enhance shared links, the difference between summary and summary_large_image card types, and how X falls back to Open Graph tags.

Code Review

Review metadata generation, rendered HTML, structured data, and response headers related to Add Twitter Card meta tags. Flag exact routes or templates where search-facing output violates the rule, and describe how to verify the final page output.
