Automate posting on X by scraping trends, generating and scheduling tweets via browser without API costs, with approval workflows and human-like delays.
Automate posting on X by scraping trends, generating and scheduling tweets via browser without API costs, with approval workflows and human-like delays.
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Automate X posts via browser control - bypass $200/month API costs.
Scrape trending topics from your personalized "For You" feed Generate tweet ideas based on trends (crypto/Web3/tech focused) Schedule tweets throughout the day for natural posting Post via browser automation - no API keys needed Queue management for approval workflows
X API pricing is insane: Free tier: Write-only, can't read anything Basic: $200/month for 15k tweets read Pro: $5,000/month This skill uses browser automation instead. Zero API costs.
โ Trend Scraping Navigates to X.com/explore Extracts trending topics from "For You" tab Saves to JSON for AI processing โ Tweet Generation AI generates 3-5 tweet ideas based on trends Customizable tone/voice Length optimization (150-250 chars for engagement) โ Scheduled Posting Space tweets throughout the day Human-like delays between posts Approval queue workflow โ Browser Automation Uses OpenClaw browser control Requires one-time login Session persists across runs
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/x-automation npm install
Ask your agent: "Check X trends and generate 3 tweet ideas" The agent will: Navigate to X.com/explore Scrape trending topics Generate tweet ideas Send to you for approval Post approved tweets
Set up a cron job to run every 4 hours: { "schedule": { "kind": "every", "everyMs": 14400000 }, "payload": { "kind": "agentTurn", "message": "Check X trends, generate 2-3 tweet ideas, send to Telegram for approval" }, "sessionTarget": "isolated" }
"Post this tweet: <your text>"
No API keys needed! Just: Log in to X.com in OpenClaw browser Keep browser session active (or re-login when needed) Customize tweet voice in your SOUL.md or prompt
Default focus areas (customize in your prompts): Crypto trends (ETH, Base L2, DeFi) Web3 development Tech commentary Product updates (if applicable) Default tone: Direct, opinionated No corporate speak Short & punchy (150-250 chars) Engagement-focused

No auto-posting without approval (unless you configure it) Human-like delays (30-60s between tweets) Daily limits (configurable, default 10/day) Queue review before posting
Uses real browser session (not headless) Random delays between actions Natural posting schedule Human-like mouse movements (Playwright)
Requires browser to stay logged in Can be detected if too aggressive Manual login required (can't automate 2FA)
This automates YOUR account via YOUR browser. You're not violating X ToS any more than using the website normally. Just don't spam.
Optimal posting times (adjust for your timezone): Morning: 9-10 AM (commute browsing) Lunch: 1-2 PM (break time) Evening: 7-9 PM (peak Twitter hours) Late: 11 PM-12 AM (night crew) Posting frequency: 2-4 tweets/day is natural Space out by 3-4 hours minimum Don't post all at once Content strategy: Comment on trends (show you're plugged in) Share insights (demonstrate expertise) Mention your product (subtle, 1 in 5 tweets) Engage with replies (build community)
See WORKFLOW.md for detailed examples of: Trend scraping output Generated tweet samples Approval workflows Scheduling strategies
This skill is credential-free and safe to share. No API keys, no passwords, no private data. Issues? Check: Is browser logged into X? Is OpenClaw browser control running? Are cron jobs properly configured? Built for crypto devs who refuse to pay $200/month for an API that should be free.
