How X (Twitter) Thread Creation Works (Advanced Logic)

Note: The following describes the default thread creation logic. To override this and post long text as a single post, set the x_long_text_as_post parameter to true.

The system is engineered to create well-formatted, natural-looking threads on X (formerly Twitter). Instead of simply splitting text at every line break, it intelligently groups paragraphs to create more readable tweets.

Here's the step-by-step logic:

Intelligent Paragraph Grouping (Primary Method):

The function first identifies distinct paragraphs (any text separated by a blank line). It then combines as many of these paragraphs as possible into a single tweet, filling it up to the 280-character limit without exceeding it. The double newline (\n\n) between combined paragraphs is preserved for formatting. This results in fewer, more substantial tweets that flow naturally, just as if a person had written them.

Handling Exceptionally Long Paragraphs:

If a single paragraph is, by itself, longer than the 280-character limit, a more granular splitting logic is automatically triggered for that paragraph only:

• Split by Line Break: The system first attempts to break the paragraph down by its individual line breaks (\n).
• Split by Word: If any of those single lines are still too long, it will split them by words as a final resort.

Media Attachment:

For posts that include photos or videos, all media is attached only to the first tweet of the thread. The subsequent tweets in the thread will be text-only replies.

pinterest_cover_image_data	String	No	Base64 encoded cover image data, used if pinterest_cover_image_content_type is provided.	-
