Content ideation from search

1. Use scripts/scrapeSearch.js or x_search_tweets for niche keywords

3. Use src/viralTweetDetector.js on popular accounts in your niche
4. Repurpose successful formats with src/contentRepurposer.js

2. Weekly: Review XActions.history() for recurring themes
3. Set src/keywordMonitor.js for brand/topic monitoring
