Automatically generates and posts 5 persona-matched tweets daily to X using GPT-5.1, with repetition checks, content filters, and Telegram alerts.
# Edison Autopilot Post X AI-powered auto-tweeting system. Generates and posts 5 tweets per day to X using GPT-5.1, with Telegram notifications and built-in safeguards. Built entirely through **vibe coding** with Claude Code — zero lines of code written by hand. ## What It Does - Generates 5 tweets/day using GPT-5.1, matching your persona and voice - Posts automatically to X at scheduled times via cron - Sends Telegram notifications for every posted tweet - Checks last 10 tweets to avoid repetition - 3-layer character limit protection (target 220 → retry at 280 → hard reject) - Configurable banned phrases list to kill GPT filler - Explicit rules to prevent AI from fabricating data/statistics - Style variety — mixes formats (hot takes, questions, one-liners, stories) ## Setup ### 1. Install dependencies ```bash pip install tweepy requests ``` ### 2. Set environment variables ```bash export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..." export X_CONSUMER_KEY="..." export X_CONSUMER_SECRET="..." export X_ACCESS_TOKEN="..." export X_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET="..." # Optional: Telegram notifications export TWEET_BOT_TOKEN="..." export TWEET_BOT_CHAT_ID="..." ``` ### 3. Customize your persona Edit `auto_tweet.py` — update the `PERSONA`, `TOPICS`, and `BANNED_PHRASES` sections to match your voice, topics, and style. ### 4. Run ```bash python auto_tweet.py --dry-run # preview without posting python auto_tweet.py # post for real ``` ### 5. Schedule with cron (5x daily) ```bash crontab -e # Add: 0 8,11,14,17,21 * * * cd /path/to/repo && python auto_tweet.py ``` ## API Keys Required | Service | Cost | Where | |---------|------|-------| | X API (Basic) | $25/month | developer.x.com | | OpenAI API | ~$0.50/day | platform.openai.com | | Telegram Bot | Free | @BotFather on Telegram | ## Prompt Engineering Tips 1. **Study real people** — encode tweet styles you admire into the persona 2. **Ban the filler** — maintain a growing list of GPT's favorite empty phrases 3. **Never let AI make up numbers** — explicit "NEVER FABRICATE DATA" rule 4. **Force variety** — require different formats, tones, and structures 5. **Shorter is better** — target 140-220 chars, not 280
