Twitter/X Thread Analysis

Analyze Twitter/X threads to generate structured reports with summaries, key points, and insights from conversational content.

When to Use

Activate this skill when the user:

• Mentions "Twitter", "X", "thread", "tweets", "tweet thread"
• Provides a twitter.com or x.com URL
• Asks to summarize a viral thread
• Wants to analyze a thread they copied
• References a thought-leader's thread

Instructions

1. Get the thread content:
   • If URL: Fetch using WebFetch (try nitter mirror if needed)
   • If text: Use directly
   • Ask for URL or content if not provided
2. If fetch fails:
   • Inform user: "Could not fetch thread content"
   • Suggest copying thread text manually
   • Stop here
3. Read the analysis prompt from prompts/thread.md
4. Extract thread metadata:
   • Author handle and name
   • Thread topic/title
   • Number of tweets
5. Generate analysis following the prompt structure exactly
6. Create output directory reports/threads/ if needed
7. Save the report to reports/threads/YYYY-MM-DD_sanitized-title.md
8. Update the activity log at logs/YYYY-MM-DD.md:
   • Add entry under "## Threads Read" section
   • Format: - [Title](../reports/threads/filename.md) - HH:MM
9. Confirm to user what was saved and where
