Skill card

combined

The three copies are not a clean original-plus-derivative set. JimLiu/baoyu-skills is the most complete and includes the User Input Tools rule, remote API publishing keys, pre-flight check, and a 5-step article workflow. LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills is a near-mirror of JimLiu but adds Windows PowerShell EXTEND.md discovery and inline multi-account compatibility rules. anbeime/skill is a shorter variant that omits the md-to-wechat and check-permissions scripts, omits remote API keys, and instead adds a 7-step article workflow with explicit markdown-to-html skill discovery, plain-text slug creation, and a different EXTEND.md search order. Because each copy contains material steps or constraints the others lack, crowning one would hide real alternatives.

# Post to WeChat Official Account

## User Input Tools

When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):

1. Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g., `AskUserQuestion`, `request_user_input`, `clarify`, `ask_user`, or any equivalent.
2. Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
3. Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.

## Language

Respond in the user's language. If they write in Chinese, reply in Chinese; if English, English. Keep technical tokens (paths, flags, field names) in English.

## Script Directory

`{baseDir}` = this SKILL.md's directory. Resolve `${BUN_X}`: prefer `bun`; else `npx -y bun`; else suggest `brew install oven-sh/bun/bun`.

| Script | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `scripts/wechat-browser.ts` | Image-text posts (图文) |
| `scripts/wechat-article.ts` | Article posting via browser (文章) |
| `scripts/wechat-api.ts` | Article posting via API (文章) |
| `scripts/md-to-wechat.ts` | Markdown → WeChat-ready HTML with image placeholders |
| `scripts/check-permissions.ts` | Verify environment & permissions |

## Preferences (EXTEND.md)

Check these paths in order; first hit wins:

| Path | Scope |
|------|-------|
| `.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md` | Project |
| `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md` | XDG |
| `$HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/EXTEND.md` | User home |

Found → read, parse, apply. Not found → run first-time setup (`references/config/first-time-setup.md`) before anything else.

**Minimum keys** (case-insensitive, accept `1/0` or `true/false`):

| Key | Default | Mapping |
|-----|---------|---------|
| `default_author` | empty | Fallback for `author` when CLI/frontmatter not provided |
| `need_open_comment` | `1` | `articles[].need_open_comment` in `draft/add` |
| `only_fans_can_comment` | `0` | `articles[].only_fans_can_comment` in `draft/add` |

**Recommended EXTEND.md**:

```md
default_theme: default
default_color: blue
default_publish_method: browser
default_author: 宝玉
need_open_comment: 1
only_fans_can_comment: 0
chrome_profile_path: /path/to/chrome/profile

# Remote API publishing (optional) — only set if WeChat's IP allowlist
# excludes your local machine. See "Remote API Method" below.
# remote_publish_host: server.example.com
# remote_publish_user: deploy
# remote_publish_port: 22
# remote_publish_identity_file: ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
# remote_publish_known_hosts_file: ~/.ssh/known_hosts
# remote_publish_strict_host_key_checking: accept-new
# remote_publish_connect_timeout: 10
# remote_publish_proxy_jump: bastion.example.com
```

Raw `ssh` / `scp` options are intentionally not supported; only the typed keys above are honored. Authentication is SSH key only (no passwords).

**Theme options**: default, grace, simple, modern. **Color presets**: blue, green, vermilion, yellow, purple, sky, rose, olive, black, gray, pink, red, orange (or hex).

**Value priority**: CLI args → frontmatter → EXTEND.md (account-level → global) → skill defaults.

## Multi-Account Support

EXTEND.md supports an `accounts:` block for managing multiple Official Accounts. With 2+ entries, the workflow inserts a Step 0.5 to prompt for account selection (or auto-selects based on `default: true` or `--account <alias>`).

Full details — compatibility rules, per-account keys, credential resolution, per-account Chrome profiles, CLI usage — in `references/multi-account.md`.

## Pre-flight Check (Optional)

Before first use, suggest the environment check (user can skip):

```bash
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/check-permissions.ts
```

Checks: Chrome, profile isolation, Bun, Accessibility, clipboard, paste keystroke, API credentials, Chrome conflicts.

| Check fails | Fix |
|-------------|-----|
| Chrome | Install Chrome or set `WECHAT_BROWSER_CHROME_PATH` |
| Profile dir | Shared profile at `baoyu-skills/chrome-profile` |
| Bun runtime | `brew install oven-sh/bun/bun` or `npm install -g bun` |
| Accessibility (macOS) | System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility → enable terminal app |
| Clipboard copy | Ensure Swift/AppKit (macOS: `xcode-select --install`) |
| Paste keystroke (Linux) | Install `xdotool` (X11) or `ydotool` (Wayland) |
| API credentials | Follow guided setup in Step 2, or set in `.baoyu-skills/.env` |

## Image-Text Posting (图文)

Short posts with multiple images (up to 9):

```bash
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-browser.ts --markdown article.md --images ./images/
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-browser.ts --title "标题" --content "内容" --image img.png --submit
```

Details: `references/image-text-posting.md`.

## Article Posting Workflow (文章)

```
- [ ] Step 0: Load preferences (EXTEND.md)
- [ ] Step 0.5: Resolve account (multi-account only — see references/multi-account.md)
- [ ] Step 1: Determine input type
- [ ] Step 2: Select method and configure credentials
- [ ] Step 3: Resolve theme/color and validate metadata
- [ ] Step 4: Publish to WeChat
- [ ] Step 5: Report completion
```

### Step 1: Determine Input Type

| Input Type | Detection | Action |
|------------|-----------|--------|
| HTML file | Path ends with `.html`, file exists | Skip to Step 3 |
| Markdown file | Path ends with `.md`, file exists | Continue to Step 2 |
| Plain text | Not a file path, or file doesn't exist | Save to markdown, then Step 2 |

**Plain Text Handling**:

1. Generate slug from content (first 2-4 meaningful words, kebab-case)
2. Create directory and save file:

```bash
mkdir -p "$(pwd)/post-to-wechat/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)"
# Save content to: post-to-wechat/yyyy-MM-dd/[slug].md
```

3. Continue processing as markdown file

**Slug Examples**:
- "Understanding AI Models" → `understanding-ai-models`
- "人工智能的未来" → `ai-future` (translate to English for slug)

### Step 2: Select Method and Configure Credentials

If the input is markdown, check for a markdown-to-html skill. If found, use it. If not found, show installation suggestion and ask the user to cancel or provide HTML manually.

### Step 3: Resolve Theme/Color and Validate Metadata

Resolve theme and color from CLI args, frontmatter, EXTEND.md, or skill defaults. Validate title, summary, and cover image.

### Step 4: Publish to WeChat

Use the selected method (API or browser) to publish the article.

### Step 5: Report Completion

Report the result to the user.

## Conflicts

- anbeime/skill::skills/content-creation-publisher/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md checks only project and user EXTEND.md paths, while JimLiu/baoyu-skills and LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills also check an XDG config path.
- anbeime/skill::skills/content-creation-publisher/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md uses a 7-step article workflow with a separate markdown-to-html skill check, while JimLiu/baoyu-skills and LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills use a 5-step workflow that includes theme/color resolution and account resolution.
- JimLiu/baoyu-skills::skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md includes remote API publishing keys and a pre-flight check script, while anbeime/skill::skills/content-creation-publisher/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md omits both.
- LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills::skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md includes Windows PowerShell EXTEND.md discovery, while JimLiu/baoyu-skills::skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md and anbeime/skill::skills/content-creation-publisher/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md do not.
