Automated Publishing Workflow

## Publishing Workflow (AGENTS.md)
When article is marked ready in CMS:
1. Read article content and metadata
2. Generate platform-specific social posts (Twitter thread, LinkedIn, Instagram caption)
3. Schedule posts via Buffer/Hootsuite API at optimal times
4. Create email newsletter snippet
5. Update content calendar with published status
6. Post to #editorial: article live, links, scheduled social times

Cross-Platform Distribution

openclaw cron add \
  --name hex-distribution \
  --schedule "0 9 * * *" \
  --agent main \
  --task "Check content calendar for articles publishing today. For each: generate Twitter thread, LinkedIn post, and newsletter blurb. Schedule via Buffer API. Report back with scheduled post IDs."

Performance Analytics

openclaw cron add \
  --name hex-content-analytics \
  --schedule "0 8 * * MON" \
  --agent main \
  --task "Pull last week's top performing articles from Google Analytics. Pull social engagement from each platform. Generate weekly content performance report. Post to #editorial with top 3 articles and key takeaways."

Trending Topic Research

openclaw cron add \
  --name hex-trending \
  --schedule "0 7 * * *" \
  --agent main \
  --task "Search web for trending topics in our niche (read brand-guidelines.md for niche). Identify 3 trending angles. Post to #editorial with brief description and why each is timely."

Newsletter Automation

Your agent compiles the weekly newsletter automatically:

1. Pulls top 5 articles from the week (by pageviews)
2. Writes a brief intro for each based on the article content
3. Assembles the newsletter in your template format
4. Queues it in your email platform (Resend, Mailchimp) for editor review
5. Sends after approval (or auto-sends if you trust it)

SEO Content Briefs

Your agent researches keywords, analyzes competitor content, and generates detailed SEO briefs for your writers — with target keywords, word count, headings structure, and competitor gaps to exploit. Consistent quality briefs at scale.
