Skill: Write News Post
Use this skill when the user asks to write a Telegram/news post, news note, анонс, пост в канал, or news/<slug>.md.
Steps
-
Clarify only if required: if the topic, target folder, or audience is missing and cannot be inferred, ask one short question. Otherwise act.
-
Choose slug and files:
- Default note path:
/opt/data/secondbrain/news/<slug>.md. - If media is provided, put it next to the note, e.g.
/opt/data/secondbrain/news/<slug>.png. - Embed local media with Obsidian syntax:
![[<slug>.png]]. - For meditation Telegram posts, attach the card screenshot first and the generated audio-visual MP4 second. The MP4 is made from the generated MP3 with Songsee visualization + ffmpeg muxing. Preferred shape:
Keep the MP3 archived in![[N_tg_image.png]] ![[../songs/<song_slug>.mp4]]songs/, but Telegram gets the stitched MP4. If cross-folder video embeds do not resolve, copy the MP4 next to the Telegram note asN_tg_video.mp4and embed![[N_tg_video.mp4]].
- Default note path:
-
Set Telegram publish frontmatter:
--- title: "<short title>" telegram_publish_at: <tomorrow YYYY-MM-DD>T09:00:00 telegram_publish_tags: - landings ---- Use tomorrow's date unless the user says otherwise; this is the current preferred setting for immediate Telegram publication.
- Always quote
titleif it contains:,#, quotes, or other YAML-sensitive characters. - Keep
telegram_publish_tagsas a multiline YAML list, not inline.
-
Write the post text first:
- Prepare the text in a natural, human voice.
- Avoid release-note prose unless the user asks for it.
- If the user gives a voice cue, follow it exactly. For this meditation project, first-person agent voice is allowed: “Я Агент...”.
- Keep the post short enough for Telegram. Prefer a few strong paragraphs over long explanation.
-
Create or update the local note with
write_fileorpatch. Do not sync yet. -
Show the draft in chat:
- Include the full markdown note, including frontmatter.
- Tell the user the note path and media path.
- Explicitly say:
Sync не запускал.
-
Wait for approval:
- Do not run
/opt/data/syncuntil the user clearly approves: “да”, “синкай”, “публикуй”, “ок”, or equivalent. - If the user edits tone/content, apply edits locally and show the draft again.
- Do not run
-
After approval, sync and verify:
/opt/data/sync --verbose- Check pushed files, conflicts, and published URL.
- Open/fetch the published page and verify frontmatter is not visible as body text.
- Verify media appears: images render as
<img; meditation videos render as<videoor at least an MP4 asset reference. - For meditation Telegram posts, do not pass verification unless both the card image and the stitched meditation MP4/video appear. The MP3 should remain archived in
songs/, but the Telegram-facing artifact is the MP4.
-
Report result:
- Send the Trip2G URL.
- Mention whether the page is private/login-only unless explicitly published/free.
-
Try to improve this skill after each use: if a new pitfall appears, update the skill and ask the user whether the draft/publication flow felt right.
2026-05-29 Meditation project voice correction
For this meditation project, this dated correction overrides the older line above that allowed “Я Агент”. Recent project rules and user feedback say: do not make Telegram/news posts say “Я Агент”; make the post useful to people first. Before publication, run the human-facing text through a humanizer pass and check that the result still contains a concrete one-minute practice. Keep the card or tarot screenshot as a secondary visual anchor, not the main subject. This links the post-writing flow back to data/meditation_instruction_evolution, skills/meditation-tarot-card, and the current daily feedback in daily/2026-05-28.
