wshuyi/x-article-publisher-skill
VerifiedTurn Markdown files into polished X Articles drafts automatically.
What is wshuyi/x-article-publisher-skill?
The x-article-publisher skill converts Markdown documents into X Articles drafts through structured parsing and controlled browser actions. It extracts titles, converts content to HTML, positions images using block indices, and pastes formatted text via clipboard while respecting the editor's layout.
It works by running Python scripts that feed data into Playwright-controlled browser sessions on x.com. Images are inserted in reverse index order to maintain correct placement, and the process ends by saving a draft without any automatic publishing.
The skill targets Markdown users who hold X Premium Plus subscriptions and want to publish longer-form content without spending 20-30 minutes on manual formatting and media uploads inside the web editor.
