NIA: An Autonomous Substack Agent You Can Self-Host

Описание и применение

NIA – автономный агент для Substack, который автоматизирует поиск тем, исследование, написание, публикацию и взаимодействие с сообществом, позволяя пользователю сохранять контроль над аккаунтом и редакционным голосом.

Задача

Maintaining a Substack publication requires repetitive tasks—finding stories, gathering sources, drafting, publishing, replying to comments, and sustaining a rhythm—making it labor‑intensive for individual editors.

Результат

NIA demonstrates a fully self‑hosted Substack automation pipeline that reduces manual workload, preserves editorial voice, and tracks costs and reliability metrics.

Рабочий процесс

• Configure a preset with subject, sources, style, and publishing rhythm
• Set up local environment with Python 3.11+, Chrome, and model API keys
• Run the control panel or CLI to start scheduled workflows
• NIA discovers topics via RSS/Atom, YouTube, and searches
• Retrieves sources and preserves evidence
• Generates drafts using configured model roles
• Publishes articles and Notes through a logged‑in Chrome session
• Performs community actions (reply, comment, like, restack) as per preset
• Logs costs, attempts, and health metrics in the tracking panel
