Adapt an article for X Articles, Medium or another blog, export it for manual handoff and record each edition’s results.

When to use it
Use this skill for platform editions, exports, publication records, promotion drafts and measurements. Each edition keeps its own source revision and platform edits while the master article can continue to evolve.
X Article, Medium, Substack and LinkedIn publication use manual handoff. Exporting content or recording a publication date does not send it to a platform.
What you need
A saved article, the intended destination and an updated connected assistant. Recording publication or measurements requires Full workspace tools and a real publication or observed result.
Install or select the skill
The ownpost entry skill includes this workflow. Use the command above if you want ownpost-blog-publishing as a separate shortcut, or select it from your installed plugin.
Try it
Select the skill in your connected assistant, then adapt these examples to your own content.
How it works
Identify the article and destination: X Article, Medium or generic blog. Create an edition from the chosen source revision and adapt its title, subtitle and sections.
Compare the edition with its source before exporting, especially when the master article has changed. Preserve deliberate platform edits and source credits.
Export Markdown, HTML, plain text or JSON. For a portable ZIP with uploaded images, use the article editor’s export download; the assistant’s export tool returns text formats.
Transfer the content to the destination editor, upload the real media and verify formatting. Video and link previews export as links, so add native embeds and check playback there.
After publishing, provide the real URL and publication time so the assistant can record that edition. Record observed measurements with their dates; missing values remain unknown.
Article-derived posts and threads are private drafts linked to their source article revision. Publishing those posts uses the separate approved X publication workflow.
Check the result
The requested edition, export or historical record is saved with its actual destination and source revision. Publication is reported only when the real outcome is known.
If something does not work
Private workspace media URLs may be inaccessible to the destination. Use the ZIP’s local images or upload the original assets. A changed master article does not silently rewrite an existing or published edition.
