PR #191 Review Summary

Progress Made:

  1. POSSE Foundation - Created a "Skeets" system for short-form content with database tables and models
  2. Bluesky Integration - Implemented real-time import of your Bluesky posts using Jetstream WebSocket
  3. Smart Backfill - Added cursor-based synchronization to import historical posts and resume from interruptions
  4. Date Preservation - Maintains original publication dates when importing from Bluesky
  5. UI Implementation - Created /skeets page displaying all published skeets with Bluesky attribution

Current State:

  • The system successfully imports posts from Bluesky (excluding replies)
  • Uses Jetstream WebSocket for efficient real-time updates
  • Stores cursor position for reliable restarts
  • Displays imported content with proper timestamps

Next Steps:

  1. Cross-posting - Add ability to publish FROM your site TO Bluesky (currently only imports)
  2. Multi-platform support - Extend POSSE to Twitter/X, Mastodon, etc.
  3. Media handling - Support for images/videos in skeets
  4. Thread support - Handle multi-post threads appropriately
  5. Fix CI/CD - Resolve the failing GitHub Actions (lint, tests, deploy)
  6. Analytics - Track engagement metrics from different platforms
  7. Scheduling - Add ability to schedule skeets for future posting

The core import functionality is working well. The main gap is outbound publishing - making your site the primary source that syndicates to social platforms.

This implements a more efficient way to import posts from Bluesky:
- Uses official Jetstream WebSocket service instead of polling the API
- Creates direct connection to stream of Bluesky events in JSON format
- Filters for specific post types and user at the connection level
- Removes unnecessary test data generation code
- More efficient and real-time import of Bluesky posts

This improves the Bluesky integration:
- Adds a cursor-based approach to Jetstream to start from the beginning of history
- Persists cursor in database for restarting at the same position
- Uses Postgres unique index to prevent duplicates
- Adds SQL transactions and conflict handling for reliability
- Updates Skeet methods for better database interactions
- Improves error handling and reconnection logic

This ensures imported content shows accurate timestamps:
- Extract the original createdAt timestamp from Bluesky posts
- Use the original date as the publication date for imported skeets
- Update the display to show both original post date and import date
- Improve the UI to clearly differentiate original vs import timestamps
- Handle potential parsing errors gracefully
