New Feature: Tweeting on X

The pipeline now supports tweeting on X in addition to WordPress and Dev.to.
WordPress remains the canonical source, meaning:

  • A post is considered authoritative once it exists on WordPress.
  • Any downstream platform (Dev.to, X, LinkedIn, etc.) builds on that state.
  • Republishing only happens when the content actually changes.

This avoids duplicate work and keeps all platforms consistent.

Publishing Pipeline Overview

  • Write‑once publishing – author content a single time.
  • Deterministic re‑runs in CI – pipelines produce the same result on each run.
  • Platform‑specific adapters without content duplication.
  • Single source of truth stored in PostgreSQL.
  • Downstream publishing on Dev.to (and now X).

The pipeline now generates backlink graphs that:

  • Detect links between posts automatically.
  • Track relationships in the database.

These data are used to:

  • Improve internal linking.
  • Strengthen SEO.
  • Keep related content connected over time.

Benefits of Consolidating Publishing Logic

Moving posting logic from external plugins to the publisher:

  • Reduces security risks associated with third‑party plugins.
  • Eliminates failures caused by plugin abandonment or incompatibility.
  • Allows the publisher to delete unnecessary plugins, simplifying maintenance.

Previous Releases

  • Publishing Pipeline v1.1.0 – added Dev.to support.
  • Publishing Pipeline – Refactoring – internal improvements and code cleanup.
