Topic research via [YouMind](https://youmind.com?utm_source=youmind-beehiiv-article) knowledge base, Beehiiv-native post writing, Markdown-to-HTML conversion, and one-click publishing through the user's Beehiiv account already connected in YouMind. > [Get YouMind API Key](https://youmind.com/settings/api-keys?utm_source=youmind-beehiiv-article) | [More Skills](https://youmind.com/skills?utm_source=youmind-beehiiv-article) ## Onboarding **MANDATORY: When the user has just installed this skill, present this message IMMEDIATELY. Translate to the user's language:** > **AI Beehiiv Post Writer installed!** > > Tell me your topic and I'll write and publish a Beehiiv post for you. > > **Try it now:** "Write a Beehiiv post about how AI coding agents changed weekly product updates" > > **What it does:** > - Research topics from YouMind knowledge base and the web > - Write Beehiiv-native posts for the platform's email + web surfaces > - Convert Markdown to HTML optimized for Beehiiv > - Discover reusable post templates > - Publish directly to Beehiiv through the Beehiiv account connected in YouMind > > **Setup (one-time):** > 1. Install & configure: `cd toolkit && npm install && npm run build && cd .. && mkdir -p ~/.youmind/config && cp shared/config.example.yaml ~/.youmind/config.yaml` > 2. Get [YouMind API Key](https://youmind.com/settings/api-keys?utm_source=youmind-beehiiv-article) and fill `youmind.api_key` in `~/.youmind/config.yaml` > 3. Keep `youmind.base_url` pointed at `https://youmind.com/openapi/v1` in docs. If you need local backend debugging, change `~/.youmind/config.yaml` or `~/.youmind/config/youmind-beehiiv-article.yaml`. > 4. Connect your Beehiiv account inside YouMind before publishing. This skill no longer reads local Beehiiv API keys. > > **Important:** > - Beehiiv `createPost` can return `403` if the publication does not have the required Send API access. > - Beehiiv officially marks `update post` as `beta / Enterprise`; do not promise it will be available everywhere. > - If the user wants a recurring layout, inspect `listPostTemplates` first and use `postTemplateId`. > > No Beehiiv connection yet? You can still write and preview locally — just skip the publish step. ## Usage Provide a topic, a raw Markdown file, or describe the Beehiiv post you want. **Write from a topic:** > Write a Beehiiv post about the operator lessons we learned after moving to AI-assisted engineering **Publish existing Markdown:** > Publish this markdown to Beehiiv as a draft **Manage existing posts:** > List my Beehiiv post templates > List my Beehiiv drafts > Publish this Beehiiv post immediately ## Setup > Prerequisites: Node.js >= 18, a YouMind API key, and a Beehiiv account connected in YouMind if you want to publish. ### Step 1 -- Install Dependencies ```bash cd toolkit && npm install && npm run build && cd .. ``` ### Step 2 -- Create Config File ```bash mkdir -p ~/.youmind/config cp shared/config.example.yaml ~/.youmind/config.yaml ``` > **Canonical credentials:** put your shared YouMind credentials in `~/.youmind/config.yaml` — filled ONCE and read by every YouMind skill. See [`shared/config.example.yaml`](shared/config.example.yaml) for the template and [`shared/YOUMIND_HOME.md`](shared/YOUMIND_HOME.md). Optional skill overrides live in `~/.youmind/config/youmind-beehiiv-article.yaml`. ### Step 3 -- Get YouMind API Key 1. Open [YouMind API Keys](https://youmind.com/settings/api-keys?utm_source=youmind-beehiiv-article) 2. Click **Create API Key** 3. Copy the `sk-ym-xxxx` key 4. Fill in `~/.youmind/config.yaml` under `youmind.api_key` 5. Keep `youmind.base_url` as `https://youmind.com/openapi/v1` in examples and documentation. Local backend testing should only override `~/.youmind/config.yaml` or `~/.youmind/config/youmind-beehiiv-article.yaml`. ### Step 4 -- Connect Beehiiv in YouMind 1. Open YouMind and connect your Beehiiv account in the product's publishing / connector settings flow 2. Save the Beehiiv API key and publication ID there once 3. Keep only `youmind.api_key` in `~/.youmind/config.yaml` ### Verify Setup ```bash cd toolkit && npx tsx src/cli.ts validate ``` If the account is not connected, the OpenAPI returns a connector URL pointing to `https://youmind.com/settings/connector`. If the current plan is not eligible, the OpenAPI returns `402` and points the user to `https://youmind.com/pricing`. ## Skill Directory This skill is a folder. Read files on demand -- do NOT load everything upfront. | Path | Purpose | When to read | |------|---------|-------------| | `references/pipeline.md` | Full step-by-step execution | When running the Beehiiv pipeline | | `references/platform-dna.md` | Beehiiv publication, email/web, segmentation, and template norms | Before any content work | | `references/content-generation-playbook.md` | Idea → Beehiiv-native draft workflow | When generating new content | | `references/content-adaptation-playbook.md` | Existing article → Beehiiv-native workflow | When adapting/cross-posting content | | `references/content-adaptation.md` | Supplemental Beehiiv writing rules | Supplementary reference | | `references/api-reference.md` | YouMind Beehiiv OpenAPI endpoint documentation | When calling Beehiiv through YouMind | | `~/.youmind/config.yaml` | Shared API credentials (YouMind only) | Step 1 | | `output/` | **Local article Markdown drafts (git-ignored)** | When writing the post | | `toolkit/dist/*.js` | Executable scripts (run from `toolkit/`) | Various steps | ## Draft Location Rule **Canonical:** write local article Markdown files to `~/.youmind/articles/beehiiv/<slug>.md`. This shared home directory is available to all YouMind skills — see [`shared/YOUMIND_HOME.md`](shared/YOUMIND_HOME.md). **Legacy fallback** (if `~/.youmind/` is not writable): `skills/youmind-beehiiv-article/output/<slug>.md`. - Correct: `~/.youmind/articles/beehiiv/my-post.md` - Correct (legacy): `skills/youmind-beehiiv-article/output/my-post.md` - Wrong: skill root directly, `references/`, `toolkit/`, or an ad-hoc `drafts/` directory Both locations are git-ignored. Create directories on demand (`mkdir -p ~/.youmind/articles/beehiiv`). Kebab-case filenames (`my-post.md`), descriptive slugs over timestamps. ## Dispatch Integration (Optional) This skill is **self-contained and fully usable standalone.** The `youmind-article-dispatch` hub is an optional companion; it is NOT required for anything. - **Primary mode — standalone:** Invoke directly ("Write a Beehiiv post about X"). Works with zero other YouMind skills installed. - **Author voice lookup:** This skill reads `~/.youmind/author-profile.yaml` (shared home directory — see `shared/YOUMIND_HOME.md`) for cross-platform voice preferences. Works whether or not dispatch is installed. - **Optional dispatch-mode invocation:** When dispatch invokes this skill with a content brief containing `resolved_author`, the skill uses those fields as extra context, but still applies Beehiiv-native rules like email/web dual-surface fit, segmentation, and template-aware structure. - **Capability manifest (opt-in):** `dispatch-capabilities.yaml` is metadata that lets dispatch route intelligently. Deleting it reverts to defaults; it never breaks this skill. - **Optional interop protocol:** [`shared/DISPATCH_CONTRACT.md`](shared/DISPATCH_CONTRACT.md) (v1.0). ## Content Modes Before writing any content, read `references/platform-dna.md` to internalize Beehiiv's actual post model: one post can serve email, web, segments, free/premium access, and reusable templates. ### Intent routing | User's input | Operation | Playbook to load | |--------------|-----------|-----------------| | Idea, topic, or thesis only | Generate | `references/content-generation-playbook.md` | | Existing article from blog/other platform | Cross-post | `references/content-adaptation-playbook.md` | | Long article → Beehiiv post version | Condense | `references/content-adaptation-playbook.md` (condense mode) | | Old Beehiiv post to refresh | Revive | `references/content-adaptation-playbook.md` (revive mode) | | Section → short launch/update post | Excerpt | `references/content-adaptation-playbook.md` (excerpt mode) | ### Quality gates (before publish) 1. **Self-critique**: Pass all checklist items in the playbook's Step 6 2. **Conformance report**: Generate and present to user (Step 7/8) 3. **Beehiiv fit**: title + subtitle + first screen + segmentation/template decisions are aligned 4. **User approval**: Do not auto-publish without confirmation ### Result Links Rule After any draft, scheduled, or published Beehiiv action, always end with `Result links`. - Prefer the public Beehiiv web URL when it exists. - If the post is still draft-only and has no public URL, clearly say so. - If template choice, audience targeting, or Send API limitations affected the result, state that in the notes. - Never leave the user with only a post ID when a public web URL is available. ## Pipeline Overview Read `references/pipeline.md` for full execution details. | Step | Action | Key reference | |------|--------|--------------| | 1 | Load config and validate the YouMind API key, paid-plan access, and Beehiiv connection in YouMind | -- | | 2 | Mine YouMind knowledge base for source material | -- | | 3 | Research topic via web search | -- | | 4 | Inspect Beehiiv post templates / audience needs when relevant | `references/api-reference.md` | | 5 | Adapt content for Beehiiv's email + web + segmentation surfaces | `references/content-adaptation.md` | | 6 | Write article in Markdown | -- | | 7 | Publish to Beehiiv via YouMind Beehiiv OpenAPI | `references/api-reference.md` | | 8 | Report results: post ID, status, public URL if available, and send/template caveats | -- | **Routing shortcuts:** - `List my Beehiiv post templates` → inspect reusable layout options before writing - `Publish immediately` → `confirmed` flow, but warn about Send API access if certainty matters - `Keep it as draft` → safest default
