What this skill does


# Platforms: X (Twitter)

Guides X post copy creation and optimization. Use for generating publish-ready posts, threads, and content that performs on X. Suitable for copy agents, design agents (image specs), and video agents (video post specs).

**When invoking**: On **first use**, if helpful, open with 1-2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On **subsequent use** or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

## Output: Publish-Ready Copy

This skill enables agents to generate X post copy that can be published directly. Output includes character-counted text, thread structure, and platform-compliant formatting.

## Character Limits

| Type | Limit | Notes |
|------|-------|-------|
| **Standard post** | 280 characters | Most users |
| **Premium** | 25,000 characters | X Premium subscribers |
| **URL** | Counts as 23 chars | t.co shortens all links |
| **Emoji** | ~2 chars each | Varies by emoji |

## Optimal Lengths (Engagement)

| Use Case | Characters | Purpose |
|----------|------------|---------|
| **General** | 71-100 | Sweet spot for engagement |
| **Promotional** | 120-130 | Product/offer posts |
| **Question** | 60-80 | Drive replies |
| **Retweet-friendly** | ~116 | Leaves room for "RT @user:" |

## Thread Format

- **Structure**: 3-5 connected posts; number as 1/5, 2/5, etc.
- **First post**: Strong hook; no "thread" in first line
- **Last post**: CTA, summary, or question
- **Each post**: ~80 chars; can stand alone

## Post Structure (Hook + Value + CTA)

| Part | Ratio | Guideline |
|------|-------|-----------|
| **Hook** | 10% | First 1-2 lines; question, fact, or emotion; ~50 chars |
| **Value** | 70% | Practical info; use thread for depth |
| **CTA** | 20% | Call for reply, question, or action |

End with open question to drive replies. Thread structure can extend impressions ~10x.

## Algorithm (Grok AI)

### Signal Weights

| Signal | Impact |
|--------|--------|
| **Replies** | Highest (~54-75x likes); quality > quantity |
| **Author replies** | Active reply chains ~75x visibility |
| **Bookmark** | 2026 signal; saves boost recommendation |
| **Media** | Images/video ~2x; video 2-4x exposure |
| **External links** | Reduce score ~50%; prefer internal refs |
| **Post limit** | 5-8/day; >10/day reduces later visibility ~80% |

**Content**: Open questions, controversial views, stories; avoid "RT if agree" bait.

### TweepCred

| Threshold | Effect |
|-----------|--------|
| **< 65** | Only last 3 posts enter For You |
| **New accounts** | Need +17 to appear in feed |
| **Blue V** | Auto 100 points |

Monitor account health; avoid spam, bulk ops, excessive links.

### Distribution

Posts tested in small group first; early interaction (first 30 min) decides reach. Niche consistency helps SimClusters match.

## Link Optimization

| Practice | Guideline |
|----------|-----------|
| **Penalty** | External links ~-50%; Regular accounts: link posts 0% engagement since 2025 |
| **Placement** | Put link in reply, not main post |
| **Ratio** | Max 1 link per 5 posts |
| **Premium** | Premium+ safest for links (~0.25-0.3% engagement) |
| **Preview** | Title ≤70 chars, description ≤200 chars; 1200×628 image |

## Premium Impact

| Tier | Reach | Link posts |
|------|-------|------------|
| **Regular** | <100/post | 0% engagement |
| **Premium ($8)** | ~600/post | ~0.25-0.3% |
| **Premium+ ($40)** | ~1550/post | Safest for links |

Premium ~10x reach vs Regular. If X is core channel, Premium helps.

## Video

- **Exposure**: 2-4x vs text
- **Length**: 8-30s short video preferred
- **VQV**: High video completion boosts score 2-3x

## Content Ratio

| Type | Share | Use |
|------|-------|-----|
| **Value** | 70% | Education, how-to, insights |
| **Interaction** | 20% | Polls, questions, AMA |
| **Promo** | 10% | Product, offers |

## Twitter Cards + SEO

Cards (og:image, title, description) boost CTR ~64%, engagement ~26%. Use for Social SEO; X traffic can accelerate Google indexing. For programmatic SEO (template + data pages at scale), use programmatic-seo.

## Image Specs (for Design Agents)

| Format | Dimensions | Use |
|-------|------------|-----|
| **Single image** | 1200×675 (16:9) | Best visibility; no crop |
| **Square** | 800×800 | Single image |
| **Profile** | 400×400 | Avatar |
| **Header** | 1500×500 (3:1) | Banner |
| **File** | ~5MB; JPG/PNG | Over 5MB may compress |

## Output Format

When generating X copy, provide:

1. **Post text** with character count
2. **Hashtags** (if used; 1-3 recommended)
3. **Thread structure** (if thread)
4. **Image specs** (if design agent needs dimensions)

jax-development

Included

Use this skill when the user is writing, debugging, profiling, refactoring, reviewing, benchmarking, parallelising, exporting, or explaining JAX code, or when they mention JAX, jax.numpy, jit, grad, value_and_grad, vmap, scan, lax, random keys, pytrees, jax.Array, sharding, Mesh, PartitionSpec, NamedSharding, pmap, shard_map, Pallas, XLA, StableHLO, checkify, profiler, or the JAX repo. It helps turn NumPy or PyTorch-style code into pure functional JAX, fix tracer/control-flow/shape/PRNG bugs, remove recompiles and host-device syncs, choose transforms and sharding strategies, inspect jaxpr/lowering/IR, and benchmark compiled code correctly.

Writing & Docsscripts

nature-article-writer

Included

Drafts, rewrites, diagnostically critiques, and style-calibrates primary research manuscripts for Nature and Nature Portfolio journals. Use when the user wants a Nature-style title, summary paragraph or abstract, introduction, results, discussion, methods, figure legends, presubmission enquiry, cover letter, reviewer response, or when a scientific draft sounds generic, jargon-heavy, structurally weak, or AI-ish and needs precise, broad-reader-friendly prose without inventing data, analyses, or references. Best for primary research articles and letters rather than reviews or press releases unless explicitly adapting one.

Writing & Docsscripts

deckrd

Included

Document-driven framework that derives requirements, specifications, implementation plans, and executable tasks from goals through structured AI dialogue. Use when user says "write requirements", "create spec", "plan implementation", "derive tasks", "structure this feature", "break down into tasks", or "document this module". Also use for reverse engineering existing code into docs (/deckrd rev). Do NOT use for direct code writing — use /deckrd-coder after tasks are generated. Do NOT use when the user only wants to run or fix existing code without planning.

Included

Generate professional clinical decision support (CDS) documents for pharmaceutical and clinical research settings, including patient cohort analyses (biomarker-stratified with outcomes) and treatment recommendation reports (evidence-based guidelines with decision algorithms).
