# Set Up an RSS Trigger for Social Repurposing

## Action

Instruct [[tool-claude-code]] to monitor your blog or YouTube RSS feed in order to trigger social post generation.

## Expected Outcome

Automates the distribution of long-form content by instantly generating and scheduling promotional social media posts whenever new content goes live.

## Full Rationale

To close the loop on content distribution, configure your AI agent to act on a **trigger** rather than manual input. Instruct Claude Code to monitor the RSS feed of your primary content source — whether that is the blog where [[tool-arvow]] publishes articles, or a YouTube channel.

Provide Claude with the specific RSS URL and the instruction:

> 'Whenever a new item appears in this feed, extract the core concepts and generate 3 LinkedIn posts and a Twitter thread promoting it, then send to the Blotato API for scheduling.'

This action item transforms a static content creation process into a **dynamic, self-promoting engine** — the [[concept-rss-to-social-pipeline]] in operation.

## Dependencies

- [[tool-blotato]] must be connected as the scheduling endpoint.
- [[prereq-api-knowledge]] is required to wire the Blotato API key in.
- [[concept-claude-code-skills]] should already encode brand voice so the generated posts don't sound generic.

## Human-in-the-Loop Note

Even though the goal is automation, downstream best practice (per the enrichment overlay) is **human-on-the-loop review** before posts go live. Automation can fail on tone, compliance, factual precision, and platform-specific norms.
