Post RSS blog summaries to Bluesky automatically
A Zapier agent turns new RSS items into Bluesky drafts that point readers to Medium, with approval before anything is sent.
- What they did
- The author created a Zapier Central agent from scratch and gave it an RSS by Zapier trigger tied to their Buy Me a Coffee feed. They connected Bluesky’s Create Post action, added a media style guide as a reference file, and asked the agent to write a sharp opening line that sends people to Medium. They left the action fields for the agent to fill in and checked the workflow in Chat Preview before turning it on.
- How it went
- Once live, the agent keeps Bluesky supplied with new post hooks while the author is away. The piece does not mention any post totals or audience response.
- Tips
- Zapier’s free tier covers 400 activities each month, so volume may matter. If you want a review step, turn on Require Approval so you can approve each draft before it posts.

Monitor this RSS feed: [RSS URL]. When a new item appears, write a short Bluesky post in my style that summarizes the article in under [300] characters, includes a link to [destination], and uses the attached style guide for tone and formatting. Draft the post for [Bluesky account] and stop for my approval before publishing anything. After I approve, publish that one post and wait for the next new item.
