No elevated permissions or background processes. [Manual install & verification](https://dist.inference.sh/cli/checksums.txt) available. ## Character Limits | Element | Limit | |---------|-------| | Tweet text | 280 characters (free), 25,000 (Premium) | | Thread length | No limit (10-15 tweets is sweet spot) | | Image alt text | 1,000 characters | | Quote tweet addition | 280 characters | | Reply | 280 characters | | Display name | 50 characters | ## Thread Structure ### The Anatomy ``` Tweet 1 (Hook): Bold claim + "thread 🧵" Tweet 2: Context / why this matters Tweet 3-9: One point per tweet (numbered) Tweet 10: Summary or biggest takeaway Tweet 11: CTA (follow, retweet, bookmark) ``` ### Tweet 1: The Hook This tweet lives or dies alone in the timeline. It must work WITHOUT the thread. | Hook Type | Template | |-----------|----------| | I did X + result | "I analyzed 1,000 [things]. Here's what I found:" | | Number + list | "10 [topic] tips that [benefit]:" | | Contrarian | "Unpopular opinion: [bold take]" | | Story opener | "In 2019, I [dramatic event]. Here's what happened:" | | How-to promise | "How to [achieve outcome] (step by step):" | | Surprising fact | "[Stat that seems wrong]. Let me explain:" | ```bash # Post hook tweet infsh app run x/post-create --input '{ "text": "I spent 3 years building SaaS products.\n\nHere are 10 things I wish someone told me on day 1:\n\n🧵" }' ``` ### Content Tweets (3-9) | Rule | Why | |------|-----| | One idea per tweet | Clarity and retweetability | | Number them (1/, 2/, etc.) | Progress signal, easy to reference | | Each tweet should stand alone | People share individual tweets | | Lead with the insight | Don't bury the point | | Use line breaks | Visual breathing room | | Include examples | Abstract → concrete | ```bash # Content tweet with visual infsh app run x/post-create --input '{ "text": "3/ Your pricing page is the second most visited page on your site.\n\nBut most founders treat it as an afterthought.\n\nThe fix:\n→ Show 3 tiers (not 2, not 5)\n→ Highlight the middle one\n→ Annual toggle defaulted ON\n→ Feature comparison below" }' ``` ### Closing Tweet ```bash # CTA tweet infsh app run x/post-create --input '{ "text": "11/ That'\''s the full playbook.\n\nTL;DR:\n• Validate before building\n• Launch ugly, iterate fast\n• Pricing is positioning\n• Talk to users weekly\n\nIf this was useful:\n→ Retweet the first tweet\n→ Follow me @username for more\n→ Bookmark this thread" }' ``` ## Formatting Rules ### Tweet Formatting ``` ❌ Dense: "If you want to grow on Twitter you need to post consistently and engage with your audience while also making sure your content provides value to your followers." ✅ Formatted: "Want to grow on Twitter? 3 non-negotiable rules: → Post daily (consistency > quality) → Reply to 20 accounts bigger than you → Every tweet must teach OR entertain No shortcuts." ``` ### Symbols for Lists | Symbol | Use For | |--------|---------| | → | Steps, actions, directions | | • | Bullet points, lists | | — | Asides, attributions | | ✅ | Do's, positives | | ❌ | Don'ts, negatives | | 1/ 2/ 3/ | Numbered thread tweets | ### Line Break Strategy ``` Short sentence. ← blank line Short sentence. ← blank line Punchline. ``` Line breaks create **pacing**. Use them to control reading speed and emphasis. ## Media in Threads ### When to Add Images | Tweet Position | Image Type | Purpose | |---------------|-----------|---------| | Hook (tweet 1) | Eye-catching graphic | Stop the scroll | | Key points | Screenshots, examples | Evidence | | Summary | Infographic | Shareable recap | ```bash # Generate thread header image infsh app run infsh/html-to-image --input '{ "html": "<div style=\"width:1200px;height:675px;background:linear-gradient(135deg,#0f172a,#1e293b);display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;padding:60px;font-family:system-ui;color:white;text-align:center\"><div><h1 style=\"font-size:48px;font-weight:900;line-height:1.2;margin:0\">10 SaaS Pricing Mistakes<br>That Cost You Revenue</h1><p style=\"font-size:22px;opacity:0.5;margin-top:20px\">A thread 🧵</p></div></div>" }' # Generate screenshots for evidence infsh app run infsh/agent-browser --input '{ "url": "https://example.com/pricing", "action": "screenshot" }' ``` ### Image Specs | Format | Dimensions | Max Size | |--------|-----------|----------| | Single image | 1200 x 675 (16:9) recommended | 5 MB | | Two images | 700 x 800 each | 5 MB each | | Four images | 600 x 600 each | 5 MB each | | GIF | 1280 x 1080 max | 15 MB | ## Thread Types ### Educational ``` 1/ [Topic] explained simply: 2/ What is [concept]? 3/ Why it matters 4-8/ Key principles (numbered) 9/ Common mistakes 10/ Resources 11/ CTA ``` ### Story/Journey ``` 1/ [Dramatic opener] 2/ Background/context 3-7/ Chronological events 8/ The turning point 9/ The lesson 10/ How to apply it 11/ CTA ``` ### Curation/List ``` 1/ [Number] [things] every [audience] needs: 2-10/ One item per tweet with brief explanation 11/ CTA ``` ### Teardown/Analysis ``` 1/ I analyzed [thing]. Here's what I found: 2/ The setup (what I looked at) 3-8/ Finding 1, 2, 3... with evidence 9/ The biggest surprise 10/ Takeaways 11/ CTA ``` ## Engagement Strategy | Action | Timing | Why | |--------|--------|-----| | Post hook tweet | Peak hours (8-10 AM, 12-1 PM your audience's TZ) | Maximum initial visibility | | Reply-chain the thread | Immediately after hook | Complete the thread | | Pin the thread | Right after posting | Visitors see your best work | | Engage with replies | First 60 minutes | Algorithm boost | | Quote-tweet highlight | Next day | Second wave of visibility | | Repost hook | 1-2 weeks later | Catch new followers | ## Repurposing to Thread ```bash # Research source material infsh app run tavily/search-assistant --input '{ "query": "latest statistics on remote work productivity 2024" }' # Generate visual for the thread infsh app run infsh/html-to-image --input '{ "html": "<div style=\"width:1200px;height:675px;background:#0f172a;display:flex;align-items:center;padding:60px;font-family:system-ui;color:white\"><div><p style=\"font-size:20px;color:#38bdf8;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:2px\">Data Deep Dive</p><h1 style=\"font-size:52px;font-weight:900;margin:12px 0;line-height:1.2\">Remote Work in 2024:<br>What the Data Actually Says</h1></div></div>" }' ``` ## Common Mistakes | Mistake | Problem | Fix | |---------|---------|-----| | Weak hook tweet | Thread dies at tweet 1 | Use hook formulas — bold, specific, curiosity-driving | | Too many tweets (20+) | Readers drop off after 10-12 | Sweet spot is 8-12 tweets | | Multiple ideas per tweet | Confusing, not retweetable | One idea = one tweet | | No numbers on tweets | Hard to follow, no progress signal | Always number: 1/, 2/, 3/ | | No images | Threads with images get 2x engagement | Add visuals to hook + key points | | Thread only (no standalone) | Miss the non-thread audience | Post standalone tweets too, not just threads | | No CTA at the end | Missed follow/engagement opportunity | Always ask to RT, follow, bookmark | | Posting at wrong time | Low initial engagement kills reach | Post during your audience's peak hours | | Wall of text tweets | Nobody reads dense tweets | Line breaks, symbols, short sentences | ## Related Skills ```bash npx skills add inference-sh/skills@linkedin-content npx skills add inference-sh/skills@content-repurposing npx skills add inference-sh/skills@social-media-carousel ``` Browse all apps: `infsh app list`
