X Actionbook Recap

Collect, scroll, extract, and summarize recent X (Twitter) posts for any handle (optionally filtered by keyword search) using the Actionbook Rust CLI (actionbook-rs) workflow (open → snapshot/accessibility tree → extract `article` text). Use when asked to analyze a handle over a time window (e.g., last 7 days), produce Chinese working notes, and publish a neutral English recap (single post or thread) from a specified account.

X recap via actionbook-rs

What this skill is for

Produce a repeatable “collect → extract → summarize → publish” workflow for any X handle (optionally with a keyword) using the actionbook-rs approach:

actionbook browser open the profile/search page
actionbook browser snapshot to get the accessibility tree (incl. article nodes)
(optional) actionbook browser eval to scroll
extract post text from article blocks
analyze + draft output (Chinese internal notes; English publish)
publish on X (neutral tone; optionally attach an image)

Guardrails

Infinite scroll is not exhaustive; be explicit about coverage limits.
Don’t quote “recent interviews” unless the user provides exact links/timestamps.
Publishing is external action: confirm the target account + final copy before posting.

Workflow

1) Collect posts (Actionbook)

Pick one entry point:

Profile: https://x.com/<handle>
Search (keyword + optional recency): https://x.com/search?q=from%3A<handle>%20<keyword>&src=typed_query&f=live

Commands (example):

# open (profile)
actionbook browser open "https://x.com/<handle>"

# snapshot (repeat after each scroll)
actionbook browser snapshot --refs aria --depth 18 --max-chars 12000

# scroll a bit
actionbook browser eval "window.scrollBy(0, 2200)"

Extraction heuristic:

In snapshots, locate article nodes that contain the post text.
Record for each post:
- text (verbatim)
- timestamp shown (relative or absolute)
- URL if present
- whether it’s a repost/quote (note it)

Stop condition:

You have enough coverage for the user’s time window (e.g., 7 days) OR diminishing returns.

2) Summarize (Chinese notes)

Write a compact Chinese working summary:

themes (3–6 bullets)
representative posts (links)
what’s missing / uncertainty

3) Draft publish copy (English, neutral)

Choose output type:

Single post (≤280 chars) OR
Thread (6–10 parts) if needed

Use neutral framing:

“Observation from public posts …”
avoid mind-reading; separate “what he said” from interpretation

Use templates in references/templates.md.

4) Image (optional but recommended)

Preferred options (no Python required):

Clean crop of the relevant post (browser screenshot at 1280×720 + zoom)
A simple HTML/SVG card rendered in browser and screenshotted (see references/image-card.md)

5) Publish on X

If using OpenClaw browser automation:

open compose
paste final English copy
upload image (if any)
post / thread

Confirm before posting:

target handle (e.g., @gblwll)
final text
image choice

Bundled references
