Substackv1.0.0

A content creator needs to publish a new article to the Alternative Partners Substack publication. The skill provides a Python function to create and optionally publish a post with a title and body text, converting plain text to ProseMirror format automatically.

When a published post requires updates, this skill allows editing via the draft endpoint using the same ID. It shows how to fetch the post ID from its slug and then update the title or body, ensuring the changes appear on the live post.

Instead of publishing immediately, a user can save a post as a draft. This skill demonstrates setting publish=False, which returns a draft URL where the user can preview and manually publish later via the Substack editor.

The skill can be used within a larger automated pipeline that researches topics, drafts content, and publishes on a schedule. It highlights the research_gate.py step and the veto window, enabling hands-off publishing with quality checks.

Substack enables creators to monetize their audience through paid subscriptions. This skill supports publishing content that can be part of a paid newsletter, with the option to control email blasts.

Alternative Partners can use Substack to publish thought leadership content that attracts potential clients. The skill facilitates consistent publishing, which can drive inbound leads and establish authority.

With a growing subscriber base, the publication can offer sponsored posts or partnerships. The skill allows for publishing sponsored content efficiently, potentially with clear separation from organic posts.
