How to auto-tweet GitHub releases and activity

The GitHub connector watches your repositories and automatically generates tweets about new releases, star milestones, and other activity. It's built for developers who want to share their open-source work without manual effort.

Setting up a GitHub connector

1. Go to Connectors and click "New Connector."
2. Select "GitHub" as the type.
3. Enter the repository URL or owner/repo name.
4. Choose which events to track: releases, star milestones, forks, or all.
5. Configure the posting schedule.
6. Click "Create."

Supported events

• New releases — Tweets when you publish a new GitHub release with the version number and release notes summary.
• Star milestones — Celebrates when your repo hits star counts like 100, 500, 1000, etc.
• Fork milestones — Notes significant fork counts.

AI-generated release tweets

When a new release is detected, the AI reads the release notes and generates an engaging tweet summarizing what's new. It highlights the most interesting changes rather than listing every line from the changelog.

Build in public

The GitHub connector is popular with indie hackers and developers building in public. It automatically shares your progress without you needing to remember to tweet about each release.
