# X Post Audit

Use this before publishing important posts.

## Score 1-5

- **Audience clarity**: who cares?
- **Hook strength**: does line one stop the right person?
- **Dwell potential**: will people pause or save?
- **Reply potential**: is there a natural response?
- **Repost value**: does sharing make the reader look smart/useful?
- **Profile-click potential**: does the author seem worth checking out?
- **Follow potential**: does the post imply future value?
- **Negative-feedback risk**: bait, slop, misleading claim, repetition, hostility.

## Fixes

Apply the smallest useful fix:

- sharpen the first line
- narrow the audience
- add a concrete example
- add a payoff
- cut filler
- make the CTA specific
- remove bait

## Output

Return:

- **Scores**
- **Main weakness**
- **Rewritten post**
- **2 variants** for different signals
- **Predicted signal**
- **Do not publish if** risk remains

## Operating Principle

Treat the public X algorithm as a signal map, not a cheat code. Optimize for posts and replies that earn useful positive actions (dwell, replies, reposts, shares, profile clicks, follows) while avoiding negative actions (not interested, mute, block, report, fast skips).
