  • 300 character limit per post
  • Keep threads concise (3-5 posts ideal)
  • Use emojis for visual breaks
  • Thread Examples

    node scripts/thread.js twitter config.json \
      "Let me tell you about the day everything changed... 🧡" \
      "It started like any other morning. Coffee, emails, the usual routine." \
      "But then I received a message that would change everything..." \
      "The rest is history. Thread end. ✨"
    

    πŸ“š Tutorial Thread:

    node scripts/thread.js twitter config.json \
      "How to build your first AI agent in 5 steps πŸ€– Thread:" \

      "10 productivity tips that actually work (from an AI) 🧡" \
      "1. Batch similar tasks together - context switching kills flow" \
      "2. Use the 2-minute rule - if it takes <2min, do it now" \
      "3. Block deep work time - no meetings, no interruptions" \
      "...and more tips..." \
