Marketing Pipeline Content Automation

Skill by ara.so — Marketing Skills collection.

This skill enables AI agents to use the Ultimate AI Content Pipeline - a comprehensive TypeScript-based system that automates content creation from research to video generation. The pipeline crawls trending news, generates multi-format content in multiple languages, and renders videos/infographics automatically using Remotion.

What This Project Does

The Marketing Pipeline automates the entire content creation workflow:

1. Auto-Research: Crawls news from TechCrunch, a16z, Twitter/X, LinkedIn for trending topics
2. AI Content Generation: Creates articles in multiple formats (listicles, POV, case studies, how-tos) using Claude/OpenAI
3. Multi-language Support: Generates content in English and Vietnamese simultaneously
4. Video Rendering: Converts content to short-form videos and infographics via Remotion
5. Platform Optimization: Exports for Reels, TikTok, Shorts with proper aspect ratios

Key APIs and Usage Patterns

1. News Research & Crawling

// src/lib/crawler/news-scraper.ts
import axios from 'axios';

interface NewsArticle {
  title: string;
  url: string;
  publishedAt: string;
  source: string;
  summary: string;
}

export async function scrapeNewsForTopic(
  topic: string,
  timeRange: '24h' | '7d' = '24h'
): Promise<NewsArticle[]> {
  const sources = ['techcrunch', 'a16z', 'twitter', 'linkedin'];
  const articles: NewsArticle[] = [];

  for (const source of sources) {
    const response = await axios.get(
      `https://api.rapidapi.com/v1/news/${source}`,
      {
        headers: {
          'X-RapidAPI-Key': process.env.RAPIDAPI_KEY,
          'X-RapidAPI-Host': 'news-api.rapidapi.com',
        },
        params: {
          : topic,
          timeRange,
          : ,
        },
      }
    );

    articles.(...response..);
  }

   articles;
}

2. AI Content Generation with Claude

// src/lib/ai/content-generator.ts
import Anthropic from '@anthropic-ai/sdk';

const anthropic = new Anthropic({
  apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,
});

interface ContentRequest {
  topic: string;
  format: 'toplist' | 'pov' | 'case-study' | 'how-to';
  language: 'en' | 'vi';
  tone: 'professional' | 'friendly' | 'humorous';
  researchData: any[];
}

export async function generateContent(
  request: ContentRequest
): Promise<string> {
  const systemPrompt = buildSystemPrompt(request);
  
  const message = await anthropic.messages.create({
    model: 'claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022',
    max_tokens: 4096,
    system: systemPrompt,
    messages: [
      {
        role: 'user',
        : ,
      },
    ],
  });

   message.[]. ===  
    ? message.[]. 
    : ;
}

 ():  {
   formatInstructions = {
    : ,
    : ,
    : ,
    : ,
  };

   ;
}

3. OpenAI Integration (Alternative)

// src/lib/ai/openai-generator.ts
import OpenAI from 'openai';

const openai = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
});

export async function generateContentOpenAI(
  topic: string,
  researchData: any[]
): Promise<string> {
  const completion = await openai.chat.completions.create({
    model: 'gpt-4-turbo-preview',
    messages: [
      {
        role: 'system',
        content: 'You are a marketing content expert who creates engaging, data-driven articles.',
      },
      {
        role: 'user',
        content: `Create an article about "${topic}" using this research: 
                  ${JSON.stringify(researchData)}`,
      },
    ],
    temperature: 0.7,
    max_tokens: 3000,
  });

  return completion.choices[0].message.content || '';
}

4. Video Generation with Remotion

// src/lib/video/render-video.ts
import { bundle } from '@remotion/bundler';
import { renderMedia, selectComposition } from '@remotion/renderer';
import path from 'path';

interface VideoConfig {
  content: string;
  title: string;
  platform: 'reels' | 'tiktok' | 'shorts';
  duration: number;
}

export async function generateVideo(config: VideoConfig): Promise<string> {
  const compositionId = 'ContentVideo';
  const bundleLocation = await bundle(
    path.join(process.cwd(), 'remotion/index.ts')
  );

  const composition = await selectComposition({
    serveUrl: bundleLocation,
    id: compositionId,
    inputProps: {
      title: config.title,
      content: config.content,
      platform: config.platform,
    },
  });

   dimensions = (config.);
   outputLocation = path.(
    process.(),
    ,
    ,
    
  );

   ({
    : {
      ...composition,
      : dimensions.,
      : dimensions.,
      : config. * , 
    },
    : bundleLocation,
    : ,
    outputLocation,
    : composition.,
  });

   outputLocation;
}

 () {
   dimensions = {
    : { : , :  },
    : { : , :  },
    : { : , :  },
    : { : , :  },
  };
   dimensions[platform] || dimensions.;
}

5. Complete Pipeline Orchestration

// src/lib/pipeline/orchestrator.ts
import { scrapeNewsForTopic } from '../crawler/news-scraper';
import { generateContent } from '../ai/content-generator';
import { generateVideo } from '../video/render-video';

interface PipelineConfig {
  topic: string;
  format: 'toplist' | 'pov' | 'case-study' | 'how-to';
  languages: ('en' | 'vi')[];
  generateVideo: boolean;
  platform?: 'reels' | 'tiktok' | 'shorts';
}

export async function runContentPipeline(config: PipelineConfig) {
  try {
    // Step 1: Research
    console.log('🔍 Starting research...');
    const researchData = await scrapeNewsForTopic(config.topic, '24h');

    // Step 2: Generate content for each language
    console.log('✍️ Generating content...');
    const contents = {};
    
     ( lang  config.) {
       content =  ({
        : config.,
        : config.,
        : lang,
        : ,
        researchData,
      });
      contents[lang] = content;
    }

    
     videoPath = ;
     (config. && config.) {
      .();
      videoPath =  ({
        : contents[],
        : config.,
        : config.,
        : ,
      });
    }

    .();
     {
      : researchData,
      contents,
      videoPath,
    };
  }  (error) {
    .(, error);
     error;
  }
}

6. Next.js API Route Example

// src/app/api/generate/route.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';
import { runContentPipeline } from '@/lib/pipeline/orchestrator';

export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
  try {
    const body = await request.json();
    const { topic, format, languages, generateVideo, platform } = body;

    if (!topic || !format) {
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: 'Topic and format are required' },
        { status: 400 }
      );
    }

    const result = await runContentPipeline({
      topic,
      format,
      languages: languages || ['en', 'vi'],
      generateVideo: generateVideo || false,
      platform,
    });

    return NextResponse.json(result);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('API Error:', error);
    return NextResponse.json(
      { error:  },
      { :  }
    );
  }
}

Frontend Integration

// src/components/ContentGenerator.tsx
'use client';

import { useState } from 'react';

export default function ContentGenerator() {
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
  const [result, setResult] = useState(null);

  async function handleGenerate(e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) {
    e.preventDefault();
    setLoading(true);

    const formData = new FormData(e.currentTarget);
    const payload = {
      topic: formData.get('topic'),
      format: formData.get('format'),
      languages: ['en', 'vi'],
      generateVideo: formData.get('generateVideo') === 'on',
      platform: formData.get('platform'),
    };

    try {
      const response = await (, {
        : ,
        : { :  },
        : .(payload),
      });

       data =  response.();
      (data);
    }  (error) {
      .(, error);
    }  {
      ();
    }
  }

   (
    
  );
}

Configuration Files

TypeScript Configuration

Ensure tsconfig.json includes:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES2020",
    "lib": ["dom", "dom.iterable", "esnext"],
    "allowJs": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "strict": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "noEmit": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "module": "esnext",
    "moduleResolution": "bundler",
    "resolveJsonModule": 
     
     
     
     
       
    
  

Remotion Configuration

// remotion.config.ts
import { Config } from '@remotion/cli/config';

Config.setVideoImageFormat('jpeg');

Common Patterns

Pattern 1: Batch Content Generation

async function generateBatchContent(topics: string[]) {
  const results = await Promise.all(
    topics.map(topic =>
      runContentPipeline({
        topic,
        format: 'toplist',
        languages: ['en', 'vi'],
        generateVideo: false,
      })
    )
  );

  return results;
}

Pattern 2: Scheduled Content Creation

// Using node-cron for scheduling
import cron from 'node-cron';

// Run every day at 9 AM
cron.schedule('0 9 * * *', async () => {
  const trendingTopics = await fetchTrendingTopics();
  
  for (const topic of trendingTopics.slice(0, 3)) {
    await runContentPipeline({
      topic: topic.name,
      format: 'toplist',
      languages: ['en', 'vi'],
      generateVideo: true,
      platform: 'reels',
    });
  }
});

Pattern 3: Content Variation Testing

async function generateVariations(topic: string) {
  const formats = ['toplist', 'pov', 'case-study', 'how-to'] as const;
  const variations = {};

  for (const format of formats) {
    variations[format] = await generateContent({
      topic,
      format,
      language: 'en',
      tone: 'professional',
      researchData: [],
    });
  }

  return variations;
}

Troubleshooting

API Rate Limits

// Implement rate limiting
import pLimit from 'p-limit';

const limit = pLimit(3); // Max 3 concurrent requests

const results = await Promise.all(
  items.map(item => limit(() => apiCall(item)))
);

Video Rendering Memory Issues

// Use smaller chunks and cleanup
Config.setConcurrency(2); // Reduce concurrent renders
Config.setChromiumDisableWebSecurity(true);

// Clean up after rendering
import { cleanupArtifacts } from '@remotion/renderer';
await cleanupArtifacts();

Missing Environment Variables

function validateEnv() {
  const required = [
    'OPENAI_API_KEY',
    'ANTHROPIC_API_KEY',
    'RAPIDAPI_KEY',
  ];

  const missing = required.filter(key => !process.env[key]);
  
  if (missing.length > 0) {
    throw new Error(
      `Missing required environment variables: ${missing.join(', ')}`
    );
  }
}

// Call at startup
validateEnv();

Error Handling Best Practices

async function safeGenerateContent(config: ContentRequest) {
  const maxRetries = 3;
  let attempt = 0;

  while (attempt < maxRetries) {
    try {
      return await generateContent(config);
    } catch (error) {
      attempt++;
      if (attempt >= maxRetries) throw error;
      
      // Exponential backoff
      await new Promise(resolve => 
        setTimeout(resolve, Math.pow(2, attempt) * 1000)
      );
    }
  }
}
