How to post to X from Claude
- Add Social Rainbow to Claude

- Draft for X
Keep one sharp idea per post and remove throat-clearing. Use a thread only when the idea truly needs ordered steps. Include any intended link or supported media before validation.
- Validate and review the exact preview
Check every destination, the visible post text, link behavior, media, follow-ups, and platform options. Resolve warnings or errors before approval.
- Approve and publish
Explicitly approve that exact preview. Social Rainbow publishes the unchanged payload and returns the actual publication job status.
A prompt you can copy
You do not need to name internal tools. State the outcome, destinations, source material, and approval requirement in plain language.
Write for X, not just at it
Keep one sharp idea per post and remove throat-clearing. Use a thread only when the idea truly needs ordered steps.
Supported content: text, link, image, GIF, and video posts. Media is optional for X posts.
Media handling in Claude
For media posts, provide a direct public media URL that Social Rainbow can validate for the selected destination.
Media storage does not publish a post. The assistant still has to validate the destination, show the complete preview, receive approval, and call the final publish or schedule action.
What the final review should show
- The exact connected account name and destination.
- The final visible root post and any follow-ups or comments.
- Every link, media item, and destination-specific option.
- Warnings, normalization changes, or validation errors.
If anything changes after that review, validate the new version and approve it again. This keeps the user's approval tied to the content that will actually be sent.
