Repurposing Guidelines

What to Preserve

• Core message and key insights

• Unique perspective or angle

• Actionable takeaways

• Personal voice and authenticity

What to Adapt

• Length (compress for social, expand for newsletter)

• Structure (platform-specific formats)

• Tone (slightly more casual for X, professional for LinkedIn)

• CTAs (platform-appropriate)

What to Remove

• Technical details (for non-tech platforms)

• Code examples (unless platform supports)

• Complex explanations (simplify)

• Multiple topics (focus on one)

Integration with Blog Workflow

As Optional Phase 8

After sanity-publisher completes, orchestrator can invoke:

Task: "You are blog-repurposer. [AGENT:repurposer]

Project Context

• Published URL: {url}
• Post Title: {title}
• Workspace: {workspacePath}

Requested Formats

Generate: X thread, newsletter, LinkedIn post

Instructions

Read the published post and create all requested formats. Save outputs to workspace.

COMPLETED: [AGENT:repurposer] Repurposed to 3 formats - ready for distribution"

Output Files

Saved to blog-workspace/active-projects/{projectId}/repurposed/ :

• x-thread.md

• Twitter thread

• newsletter.md

• Newsletter version

• linkedin.md

• LinkedIn post

• repurpose-summary.json

• Metadata

Examples

Example 1: Create X thread

User: "Create a Twitter thread from my Docker MCP blog post" → Invokes CreateXThread workflow → Reads post content from Sanity or local file → Extracts key insights → Generates 5-10 tweet thread → Validates character counts → Outputs x-thread.md

Example 2: Newsletter version

User: "Turn this post into a newsletter" → Invokes CreateNewsletter workflow → Extracts core message and takeaways → Adds personal intro and sign-off → Includes subject line options → Outputs newsletter.md

Example 3: All formats

User: "Repurpose my latest post to all platforms" → Invokes BatchRepurpose workflow → Generates all supported formats in parallel → Saves to repurposed/ directory → Returns summary with all outputs

Best Practices

• Start with the hook: Every format needs a strong opening

• One idea per format: Don't try to cover everything

• Platform voice: Match the platform's conversational norms

• Authentic: Keep your personal voice consistent

• CTA variety: Use different CTAs for different platforms

• Test lengths: Verify character/word counts before saving

Platform-Specific Tips

X (Twitter)

• First tweet is most important (appears in previews)

• Use line breaks for readability

• End with a question for engagement

• No hashtags (they reduce reach)

LinkedIn

• First 2 lines show before "see more"

• Personal stories perform best

• End with thought-provoking question

• Professional but human

Newsletter

• Subject line is everything

• Personal > promotional

• One clear action item

• P.S. gets high visibility
