What it does

Tweet Thread From Blog is an agent skill from Varnan-Tech/opendirectory. Converts a blog post URL or article into a Twitter/X thread with a strong hook, one insight per tweet, and a CTA. Optionally posts the full thread to X via Composio using a reply chain. Use when asked to turn a blog post into a tweet thread, repurpose an article for Twitter, create a thread from a blog, write a Twitter thread about a topic, or share a blog post as a thread. Trigger when a user mentions Twitter thread, X thread, tweet thread, or wants to repurpose blog content for X/Twitter.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `evals/evals.json` and `references/output-template.md`). Compatibility notes: ["claude-code","gemini-cli","github-copilot"]

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Social media posts and Blog and article writing. It works with Composio and X (Twitter). The repository describes itself as: AI Agent Skills built for Founders who hate Marketing. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to turn a blog post into a tweet thread
  • Repurpose an article for Twitter
  • Create a thread from a blog
  • Write a Twitter thread about a topic

Example prompts

  • “Use the tweet-thread-from-blog skill to convert a blog post URL or article into a Twitter/X thread with a strong hook, one insight per tweet, and a…”
  • “/tweet-thread-from-blog”

Requirements

  • A credential in COMPOSIO_API_KEY
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): ["claude-code","gemini-cli","github-copilot"]

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Check Setup
  2. Fetch and Extract Content
  3. Choose Thread Style
  4. Read Format Rules
  5. Generate the Thread
  6. Self-QA
  7. Post via Composio or Output

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62e437a. 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

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • COMPOSIO_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    ["claude-code","gemini-cli","github-copilot"]

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Tweet Thread From Blog loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 130 tokens; SKILL.md has 900 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~130
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.4k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:175

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.

Tweet Thread from Blog

Convert a blog post or article into a 7-10 tweet thread. One insight per tweet. Strong hook. CTA in the final tweet. Optionally post the thread directly to X via Composio.

Writing Style

Apply these rules to every tweet you write:

  • Active voice only
  • Conversational, like a person typed it on their phone
  • Contractions required: don't, it's, won't, can't, I've
  • Short sentences, one idea per tweet
  • No em dashes — use a period or comma instead
  • No semicolons
  • No markdown or asterisks
  • No hashtags anywhere in the thread

Banned words — do not use any of these: incredible, amazing, leveraging, synergize, game-changing, game changer, let's dive in, buckle up, it's worth noting, delve, harness, unlock, groundbreaking, cutting-edge, remarkable, paradigm, revolutionize, disruptive, transformative, thrilled, excited to share, powerful, innovative, comprehensive, actionable, crucial, vital, pivotal, elucidate, utilize, can, may, just, that, very, really, literally, actually, certainly, probably, basically, could, maybe

If a draft tweet contains any banned word, rewrite it before presenting.

CRITICAL RULE

Do not invent specifics. Every claim, stat, and example in the thread must come from the blog post. Never fabricate data, quotes, or outcomes.

Step 1: Check Setup

Confirm input is present. The user must provide one of:

  • A blog post URL
  • Pasted article text

If no input is present, ask: "What blog post or article should I turn into a thread? Share a URL or paste the content."

COMPOSIO_API_KEY is only needed for direct posting to X. Output-only mode works without it.

Step 2: Fetch and Extract Content

If input is a URL: Use WebFetch or Chrome DevTools MCP to fetch the page. Extract:

  • Title
  • Author name
  • Publish date
  • All body text
  • Key statistics and data points
  • Numbered lists or steps
  • Subheadings
  • Any quotes

If input is pasted text: Read it directly.

After fetching, identify:

  • The single most surprising or counterintuitive insight
  • 6-9 supporting insights, data points, or steps
  • Any specific numbers, percentages, or concrete results
  • The core argument or main takeaway

QA checkpoint: State the core thesis and list the top insights you will use. Confirm every insight comes directly from the source. Do not proceed if you cannot verify a claim.

Step 3: Choose Thread Style

Four styles. Auto-detect from content signals. Respect explicit user override.

StyleWhen to UseSignals
Data/InsightEvidence-based article with stats or research findingsNumbers, percentages, study results, data points
How-ToTutorial, guide, or step-by-step articleNumbered lists, step headers, "how to" in title
Story/JourneyPersonal experience, build log, lessons learnedFirst-person narrative, "I learned", "we built"
Hot TakeOpinion piece, contrarian argument"Why X is wrong", "Stop doing X", counterintuitive claim

Decision logic:

  • Article has specific stats or data: Data/Insight
  • Article is structured as steps or tips: How-To
  • Article is first-person narrative: Story/Journey
  • Article argues against a common belief: Hot Take

State the chosen style and reason. If ambiguous, pick one and note it.

Step 4: Read Format Rules

Read references/thread-format.md in full before writing any tweet. Internalize:

  • Hook tweet rules (tweet 1 must stop the scroll)
  • One-insight-per-tweet rule
  • Character limit (280 per tweet, count carefully)
  • Thread numbering format (1/8, 2/8, etc.)
  • CTA tweet rules (final tweet only)
  • No hashtags
  • No em dashes
  • Banned word list

Read references/output-template.md and select the template matching the chosen style.

Show full SKILL.md (361 more words)Show less

Step 5: Generate the Thread

Produce three things:

(A) The full thread (7-10 tweets)

Each tweet:

  • Under 280 characters including the tweet number ("1/8 " = 4 characters)
  • Contains exactly one insight, step, or idea
  • Sounds like a human typed it
  • No URLs in tweets 1 through N-1
  • No hashtags

(B) The CTA tweet (final tweet)

  • Summarizes the key takeaway in one sentence
  • Ends with one action: "Read the full post in the replies." or "What's your take?" or "Follow for more like this."
  • Includes the source URL if one was provided

(C) One alternative hook tweet

  • Uses a different format from the primary hook
  • If primary used a stat, offer a question-based hook
  • If primary used a bold claim, offer a before/after hook

Step 6: Self-QA

Run every check before presenting. Fix violations first.

  • Tweet 1 creates a curiosity gap or leads with the most surprising insight
  • Every tweet is under 280 characters (count including tweet number)
  • Each tweet contains exactly one idea
  • No tweet starts with "I" (exception: Story/Journey style)
  • No banned words in any tweet
  • No em dashes in any tweet
  • No hashtags in any tweet
  • No URLs except in the final CTA tweet
  • No invented data. Every stat and example traces to the source.
  • Thread reads naturally in sequence
  • Total tweet count is between 7 and 10

State total tweet count and confirm every tweet is under 280 characters before presenting.

Step 7: Post via Composio or Output

Check for COMPOSIO_API_KEY.

If set: "Thread ready. Confirm to post to X via Composio, or say 'output only' to get the text."

On confirmation:

  1. Post tweet 1 using action TWITTER_CREATION_OF_A_POST with text set to tweet 1 content
  2. Capture the returned tweet ID
  3. Post tweet 2 with reply_in_reply_to_tweet_id = tweet 1 ID, capture its ID
  4. Continue for each tweet in sequence, each replying to the previous tweet's ID
  5. Wait 1 second between posts to avoid rate limiting
  6. After all tweets post: "Thread posted. Tweets 1-N are live."

If not set: Present each tweet in a numbered list inside a code block. Add:

"To enable direct posting, add COMPOSIO_API_KEY to your .env file. See README.md for Composio setup."
