Post to Bluesky when you go live

What your followers see

The starter text is your stream's title and category and your channel link:

Live now: Speedrunning Celeste until the PB falls (Celeste) https://www.twitch.tv/yourchannel

with a picture of your stream under it. The link is clickable, and the picture's description is your stream title, so it reads out for people using a screen reader. Change the text to anything you like; Insert… adds values such as your title, category and channel link.

• 300 characters, an emoji counting as one. The step's preview counts as you type, and longer text is cut with … rather than in the middle of a link.
• One attachment. With a picture, your link stays clickable in the text. Choose no picture and Bloopbot shows a link card for your channel instead.
• Links and #hashtags are clickable. An @name stays plain text and notifies no one.

The flow

The Socials pack's Post to Bluesky when you go live is four steps you can open and change:

1. Stream starts or ends, set to Live.
2. Variable is: this stream hasn't been announced on Bluesky yet.
3. Post to Bluesky, with the text, the picture and a live preview of the post.
4. Set a variable: remember this stream once Bluesky confirms the post.

So a short disconnect doesn't post twice, and your next stream gets a fresh post. A Post to Bluesky step works after any trigger, so a milestone or a command can post too.
