Transform academic papers into engaging social media content for ResearchGate, LinkedIn, and WeChat. Optionally generate a video.

Input

Provide or forward the paper with:

• - Title

• Abstract / key points
• Publication venue / conference
• Link to paper
• (Optional) Specific angle or highlight to emphasize

Output Platforms

1. ResearchGate Post

• Length: 300-500 words
• Content: Full abstract highlight + methodology punchline + link
• Includes: Hashtags (#FormationControl #EventTriggered #MultiAgentSystems etc.)

2. LinkedIn Post

• - Tone: Professional but conversational, storytelling-driven
• Length: 150-300 words (shorter for feed algorithm)
• Content: Hook opener → key contribution → why it matters → CTA (read paper / connect)
• Format: Short paragraphs, emoji sparingly, line breaks for readability

3. WeChat Article (公众号风格)

• - Tone: Chinese, semi-formal, accessible to educated non-specialists
• Length: 800-1500 characters
• Content: 标题 (catchy) → 背景 → 核心贡献 → 亮点解读 → 结语
• Style: Use "我们" for warmth, include 2-3 emoji, technical terms with brief explanations

4. Video Introduction Script (Optional — always generated, video production depends on config)

• - Length: 60-90 seconds narration (~150-200 words)
• Structure:

• - Output: Always produces a complete narration script

Video Production (Optional — requires config)

Video generation is opt-in and requires setup. Without an API key, the skill still produces the full script for manual use.

Option A: Full AI Video Pipeline (requires API key)

Requires one of:

• - HeyGen — text-to-video with avatar, best for presenter-style research talk
• Runway / Pika / Kling — AI video clips from text/image prompts
• ElevenLabs — already configured for TTS voice

Pipeline:

1. 1. Generate narration audio via ElevenLabs (or configured TTS)
2. Generate slide/image assets via image generation
3. Compose video via ffmpeg
4. (Optional) Enhance with HeyGen/Runway API

Option B: Script-Only Mode (no API key needed)

Even without video API keys, always:

• - ✅ Generate full video narration script with scene directions
• ✅ Suggest slide content and visual layout
• ✅ Provide timing cues

User can take the script and produce the video manually or with their own tools.

Workflow

1. 1. Parse paper info (title, authors, abstract, venue)
2. Identify 3 key talking points
3. Draft ResearchGate version
4. Adapt to LinkedIn voice
5. Adapt to WeChat Chinese style
6. Generate video narration script (always)
7. If video API configured: produce audio/video
8. Output all versions clearly separated

Configuration

To enable video generation, add to your skill config or environment:

CODEBLOCK0

If video.enabled: false or no API key, skip video production and deliver script only.
