Twitter Bookmark Sync

Automatically ranks your Twitter bookmarks daily and delivers a curated reading list.

The problem: You bookmark tweets but never read them. They pile up and important content gets lost in the noise.

This tool: Self-learning bookmark curator that adapts to your interests, ranks by personal value, and delivers your best reads every morning.

⚡ What It Does

Your bookmarks get smarter over time.

The tool:

• Learns what you care about from your bookmarking patterns
• Adapts ranking weights based on what you actually save
• Decays old interests automatically (unless reinforced)
• Delivers personalized value statements every morning

The more you bookmark, the better it gets at knowing what matters to you.

Zero manual work needed.

🛠️ Getting Ready

Before installing this skill:

You'll need:

• macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or later
• Twitter account with bookmarks
• Homebrew for installing dependencies

Install through Homebrew:

# Install bird CLI
brew install steipete/tap/bird

# Install jq
brew install jq

Set up Twitter authentication:

1. Open browser → https://x.com (logged in)

2. DevTools (Cmd+Option+I) → Application → Cookies → https://x.com

3. Copy these values:

   • auth_token
   • ct0

4. Save to config:

mkdir -p ~/.config/bird
cat > ~/.config/bird/config.json5 << 'EOF'
{
  authToken: "your_auth_token_here",
  ct0: "your_ct0_here"
}
EOF

1. Test:

🔧 How It Works

Result: A self-learning curator that gets smarter with every bookmark.

The schedule:

Midnight (00:00) - Learning & Ranking:

1. Fetches bookmarks from last 24 hours
2. Categorizes each by topic and value type
3. Updates ranking algorithm:
   • Applies time decay (5% per day) to old interests
   • Reinforces categories you're actively bookmarking
   • Discovers new interest patterns automatically
   • Normalizes weights to maintain balance
4. Ranks new bookmarks using evolved criteria
5. Saves to ~/Documents/twitter-reading-YYYY-MM-DD.md

Morning (08:00) - Notification:

1. Analyzes why each bookmark matters to YOU specifically
2. Sends value-focused statements (not content summaries)
3. Links to full reading list

Self-Learning Algorithm:

Initial state (from USER.md):

• London transition: weight 100
• Crypto insights: weight 100
• Career growth: weight 95
• Investment strategy: weight 90
• ... (11 categories total)

After 30 days (example evolution):

• If you bookmark lots of crypto → crypto weight stays high (100)
• If you stop bookmarking relationships → weight decays (90 → 85 → 81...)
• If you bookmark AI tools daily → new category emerges ("discovered_ai_tools": 65)

Decay mechanics:

• 5% weight reduction per day for unused categories
• When you bookmark a category again → decay resets
• Floor: minimum weight of 10 (never disappears completely)

Configuration:

{
  "fetch_time": "00:00",           // When to learn & rank
  "notification_time": "08:00",     // When to notify
  "lookback_hours": 24,             // How far back to check
  "notification_channel": "telegram" // Where to send
}

Ranking criteria stored in: ~/clawd/twitter-bookmark-sync-criteria.json
(Evolves automatically — you don't edit this manually)
