- Attach images, screenshots, or media files to enhance understanding
- Format content for optimal Twitter engagement while maintaining educational value
- Schedule or post tweets programmatically
Content Quality Standards
CRITICAL: All Twitter posts must be:
1. Insightful
- Go beyond simple summaries - provide analysis and context
- Connect dots between multiple news items to reveal patterns
- Explain WHY something matters, not just WHAT happened
- Offer actionable insights or implications
- Highlight trends and underlying forces
2. Educational
- Teach concepts, explain market dynamics, or clarify complex topics
- Use clear, accessible language (avoid jargon without explanation)
- Provide context and background when needed
- Break down complex topics into digestible parts
- Help readers understand the significance of news
3. Intuitive
- Make it immediately clear what the post is about in the first tweet
- Use clear structure and formatting
- Include context clues (dates, sources, categories)
- Use emojis strategically to aid quick scanning
- Ensure each tweet in a thread can stand alone while contributing to the whole
4. Thread-First Approach
- ALWAYS prefer threads for content longer than a single tweet
- Use threads to organize complex information logically
- Break insights into digestible chunks (one idea per tweet)
- Number threads clearly (1/5, 2/5, etc.)
- Make the first tweet a compelling hook that encourages reading the thread
Key Features
1. Thread Support (PREFERRED METHOD)
- Always use threads for content that requires explanation or context
- Break long content into Twitter threads (280 characters per tweet)
- Automatically number thread tweets (1/5, 2/5, etc.)
- Maintain context across thread tweets
- Structure threads logically: hook → context → insights → implications
- Each tweet should be self-contained but contribute to the narrative
2. Insightful Content Creation
- Synthesize multiple news sources to identify patterns
- Explain the "why" behind market movements and trends
- Connect related stories to show bigger picture
- Provide actionable insights or implications
- Highlight what matters most and why
3. Educational Formatting
- Start threads with clear, intuitive hooks that explain what's coming
- Use clear structure: Context → Analysis → Implications
- Break down complex topics step-by-step
- Use formatting (emojis, line breaks) to aid readability
- Include source attribution for credibility
4. Media Attachments
- Attach images (screenshots, charts, graphs) to enhance understanding
- Support for PNG, JPG formats
- Automatic image optimization for Twitter
- Use images to illustrate complex concepts or data
5. Rate Limit Handling
- Respect Twitter API rate limits
- Queue tweets when needed
- Handle errors gracefully

Best Practices
Content Quality
- Be Insightful: Don't just summarize - explain WHY it matters, connect patterns, provide context
- Be Educational: Teach concepts, explain market dynamics, clarify complex topics
- Be Intuitive: Make it immediately clear what the post is about in the first tweet
- Use Threads: Prefer threads over single tweets for better organization and readability
Thread Structure
- First Tweet (Hook): Clear, compelling overview that explains what the thread covers
- Context Tweets: Provide background and context needed to understand insights
- Insight Tweets: Break down key insights one per tweet for clarity
- Final Tweet: Synthesize takeaways or actionable implications
Technical Guidelines
- Character Limits: Keep individual tweets under 280 characters
- Thread Length: Use threads for content requiring explanation (max 25 tweets per thread)
- Rate Limits: Respect Twitter's rate limits (300 tweets per 3 hours)
- Media: Optimize images (max 5MB, recommended 1200x675px) to enhance understanding
- Hashtags: Use 1-3 relevant hashtags per thread (not every tweet)
- Mentions: Tag relevant accounts when appropriate, but don't overdo it
- Error Handling: Always handle API errors gracefully
- Testing: Test with a test account before production use
Content Guidelines
- Clarity First: If content needs explanation, use a thread
- One Idea Per Tweet: Each tweet in a thread should focus on one concept
- Progressive Disclosure: Start broad, then dive deeper in subsequent tweets
- Source Attribution: Always cite sources for credibility
- Visual Aids: Use emojis strategically to aid quick scanning (📊 for data, 🧵 for threads, etc.)
