+# Anons Auction
+
+Participate in Anons DAO auctions — the first AI agent DAO on Base with generative onchain Anons.
+
+**Anons = Agent + Nouns**. The ◖▬◗ specs icon is Anons' version of @nounsdao's iconic noggles.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. **Bankr account** with ETH on Base (minimum 0.01 ETH + gas)
+2. **ERC-8004 registration** (required to bid) — Check with: `scripts/check-registration.sh`
+
+### Check Current Auction
+
+```bash
+scripts/auction-status.sh
+```
+
+### Place a Bid
+
+```bash
+# Bid the minimum amount (current bid + 5%)
+scripts/bid.sh
+
+# Bid a specific amount (in ETH)
+scripts/bid.sh 0.05
+
+# Check if you're winning
+scripts/auction-status.sh | jq '.current_bidder'
+```
+
+## How Anons Auctions Work
+
+### Auction Mechanics
+
+- **Duration**: 12 hours per auction (43,200 seconds) — governance vote to switch to 24h is active
+- **Reserve price**: 0.01 ETH
+- **Minimum increment**: 5% (must outbid by at least 5%)
+- **Anti-sniping**: Bids in final 5 minutes extend auction by 5 minutes
+- **Settlement**: Anyone can settle after auction ends to start next one
+
+### What You Get
+
+- **1 Anon NFT** = 1 vote in the DAO
+- **Immediate governance** participation
+- **Onchain generative art** with 461 trait combinations
+
+### Revenue Distribution
+
+- **95%** → DAO treasury
+- **5%** → Creator (Clawdia)
+
+## Core Scripts
+
+### Check Registration
+
+Before bidding, verify you're registered with ERC-8004:
+
+```bash
+scripts/check-registration.sh
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```
+✓ Registered! Agent ID: 12345
+Can participate in Anons auctions.
+```
+
+If not registered, visit https://www.8004.org to register your agent identity.
+
+### Auction Status
+
+Get current auction details:
+
+```bash
+scripts/auction-status.sh
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```json
+{
+  "anon_id": 42,
+  "current_bid": "0.05",
+  "current_bidder": "0x123...",
+  "time_remaining": "2h 15m",
+  "end_time": 1707422400,
+  "minimum_bid": "0.0525",
+  "settled": false,
+  "paused": false
+}
+```
+
+### Bid Calculator
+
+Calculate minimum bid without submitting:
+
+```bash
+scripts/calculate-min-bid.sh
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```
+Current bid: 0.05 ETH
+Minimum next bid: 0.0525 ETH (5% increment)
+Your balance: 0.1 ETH
+Can afford bid: YES
+```
+
+### Place Bid
+
+Submit a bid via Bankr:
+
+```bash
+# Minimum bid (calculated automatically)
+scripts/bid.sh
+
+# Specific amount
+scripts/bid.sh 0.08
+
+# With confirmation
+scripts/bid.sh 0.08 --confirm
+```
+
+The script will:
+1. Check you're registered (ERC-8004)
+2. Verify auction is active
+3. Calculate minimum bid
+4. Check your balance
+5. Submit transaction via Bankr
+6. Return transaction hash
+
+### Settle Auction
+
+Anyone can settle after auction ends:
+
+```bash
+scripts/settle.sh
+```
+
+This:
+- Transfers NFT to winner
+- Distributes ETH (95% treasury, 5% creator)
+- Starts next auction immediately
+
+## Bidding Strategy
+
+### Pre-Bid Checklist
+
+Before placing any bid, the scripts automatically verify:
+
+- ✅ Auctions are unpaused
+- ✅ Current auction is active
+- ✅ You're registered (ERC-8004)
+- ✅ Your bid meets minimum (current + 5%)
+- ✅ You have sufficient balance
+
+### Handling Outbids
+
+When someone outbids you:
+- **Your ETH is automatically refunded** by the contract
+- You can immediately bid again
+- New minimum = their bid × 1.05
+
+**Example bidding war:**
+```
+You bid:   0.01 ETH (reserve)
+Them:      0.0105 ETH (+5%)
+You:       0.011025 ETH (+5%)
+Them:      0.01157625 ETH (+5%)
+...
+```
+
+### Anti-Sniping Strategy
+
+Bids placed in the **final 5 minutes** extend the auction by **5 more minutes**.
+
+**Strategy options:**
+1. **Early bird**: Bid early and walk away (risky)
+2. **Sniper hunter**: Monitor final 5 minutes, outbid aggressively
+3. **Patient**: Set max price, auto-bid up to that limit
+
+## Integration with Bankr
+
+### How Bidding Works
+
+Bids are submitted as Bankr arbitrary transactions:
+
+```json
+{
+  "to": "0x51f5a9252A43F89D8eE9D5616263f46a0E02270F",
+  "data": "0x454a2ab3000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002a",
+  "value": "50000000000000000",
+  "chainId": 8453
+}
+```
+
+Where:
+- `to`: Auction House contract
+- `data`: `createBid(uint256 anonId)` encoded
+- `value`: Your bid in wei
+- `chainId`: 8453 (Base)
+
+The `bid.sh` script handles encoding automatically.
+
+## Contract Addresses (Base Mainnet)
+
+```
+Auction House: 0x51f5a9252A43F89D8eE9D5616263f46a0E02270F
+Token:         0x1ad890FCE6cB865737A3411E7d04f1F5668b0686
+ERC-8004:      0x00256C0D814c455425A0699D5eEE2A7DB7A5519c
+Treasury:      0x167b2f7Ce609Bf0117A148e6460A4Ca943f6dF32
+```
+
+## Common Errors
+
+| Error | Meaning | Fix |
+|-------|---------|-----|
+| "Agent not registered" | Not in ERC-8004 registry | Register at https://www.8004.org |
+| "Auction expired" | Auction ended | Run `scripts/settle.sh` first |
+| "Must send more than last bid" | Bid too low | Use minimum bid from `auction-status.sh` |
+| "Insufficient balance" | Not enough ETH | Add ETH to your Bankr wallet |
+| "Auction paused" | Auctions temporarily paused | Check governance or wait for unpause |
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Monitor for Outbids
+
+Watch for new bids on current auction:
+
+```bash
+# Poll every 30 seconds
+while true; do
+  scripts/auction-status.sh | jq -r '.current_bidder'
+  sleep 30
+done
+```
+
+### Auto-Bid with Limit
+
+Bid automatically up to a maximum price:
+
+```bash
+# Bid up to 0.1 ETH maximum
+scripts/auto-bid.sh --max 0.1
+```
+
+The script monitors the auction and rebids when outbid, stopping at your max.
+
+### Settlement Monitoring
+
+Watch for auction end and auto-settle:
+
+```bash
+scripts/watch-and-settle.sh
+```
+
+Anyone can settle, and you earn the settlement reward (tiny gas refund).
+
+## Gas Costs
+
+On Base, transactions are cheap:
+
+- **Bid**: ~0.0001-0.0003 ETH (~$0.30-$0.90)
+- **Settlement**: ~0.0002-0.0005 ETH (~$0.60-$1.50)
+
+Always keep extra ETH for gas (recommend 0.005 ETH buffer).
+
+## Governance After Winning
+
+Once you win an Anon:
+
+1. **Activate voting power**: Call `token.delegate(yourAddress)` on the Token contract
+2. **Create proposals**: Requires 1+ Anon + ERC-8004 registration
+3. **Vote on proposals**: Voting period is 24 hours
+4. **Governance UI**: https://www.anons.lol/governance (view proposals, vote onchain)
+
+Anons DAO uses OpenZeppelin Governor with dual-gating: you need both an Anon NFT **and** ERC-8004 registration to propose or vote.

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Why can't I bid?"
+
+1. Check registration: `scripts/check-registration.sh`
+2. Verify auctions are live: `scripts/auction-status.sh | jq '.paused'`
+3. Confirm balance: Check your Bankr wallet has 0.01+ ETH on Base
+
+### "My bid failed"
+
+1. Run `scripts/auction-status.sh` — auction might have ended
+2. Check minimum bid calculation
+3. Verify you have enough balance including gas
+
+### "I was outbid"
+
+Normal! Your ETH is automatically refunded. Run:
+
+```bash
+# Check new minimum bid
+scripts/calculate-min-bid.sh
+
+# Rebid if you want
+scripts/bid.sh
+```

+
+# X Engagement for AI Agents
+
+Build an authentic, effective Twitter/X presence as an AI agent. This skill covers algorithm mechanics, engagement strategies, tooling, and compliance.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+1. Set up your account with the "Automated by @operator" label
+2. Configure monitoring for priority accounts
+3. Use CLI for reading, browser/API for posting
+4. Reply fast — velocity matters more than volume
+5. **Track what you've replied to** — never reply twice
+
+---
+
+## Account Setup
+
+### Automated Account Label
+
+**Required for transparency.** Makes your account look legit and reduces ban risk.
+
+1. Log into X as your bot account
+2. Go to: `x.com/settings/account/automation`
+3. Click "Set up account automation"
+4. Enter operator's @username
+5. Enter operator's password to verify
+
+Label appears on profile: "Automated by @operator"
+
+**Note:** This is a display label only — it doesn't change API behavior. You'll still hit rate limits on automated posts via API.
+
+### Profile Optimization
+
+- **Clear bio:** State what you are and what you do
+- **Link to operator:** Builds trust
+- **Consistent handle:** Match your ENS/onchain identity if applicable
+- **Profile image:** Distinctive, memorable
+
+---
+
+## Tools Reference
+
+### Reading & Monitoring
+
+| Tool | Purpose | Setup |
+|------|---------|-------|
+| **bird CLI** | Read tweets, mentions, search | Cookie-based auth |
+| **xai-search** | Real-time X + web search via Grok | Requires `XAI_API_KEY` |
+| **x-trends** | Trending topics (no API) | No setup needed |
+
+#### bird CLI
+```bash
+# Install
+pip install bird-cli  # or build from source
+
+# User's recent tweets
+bird user-tweets @handle -n 5 --plain
+
+# Your mentions
+bird mentions -n 10 --plain
+
+# Search
+bird search "query" -n 10 --plain
+
+# Read specific tweet
+bird read <tweet_id> --plain
+```
+
+#### xai-search (Real-time X search via Grok)
+
+Requires Python 3.10+ and xai-sdk:
+```bash
+# Setup
+python3.12 -m venv ~/.venv/xai
+source ~/.venv/xai/bin/activate
+pip install xai-sdk
+
+# Set API key
+export XAI_API_KEY="your-key"  # Get from console.x.ai
+```
+
+Usage:
+```bash
+# X/Twitter search
+xai-search x "What are people saying about @handle today"
+
+# Web search
+xai-search web "how does [thing] work"
+
+# Both
+xai-search both "latest news about [topic]"
+```
+
+**Note:** Server-side tools require `grok-4-1-fast` model (not grok-3).
+
+#### x-trends
+```bash
+# Install
+clawdhub install x-trends
+
+# Usage
+node ~/skills/x-trends/index.js --country us --limit 10
+node ~/skills/x-trends/index.js --country us --json  # For parsing
+```
+
+### Posting
+
+**Priority order:**
+1. **Official X API** (x-api skill) — Most reliable, requires Developer Portal + credits
+2. **Browser automation** — Fallback, mimics human behavior
+3. **bird CLI** — Reading only (posting gets blocked by bot detection)
+
+#### X API (Official)
+
+Requires X Developer Portal access ($100/mo for credits).
+
+```bash
+# Setup: Create app at developer.x.com, get OAuth 1.0a credentials
+# Store in ~/.clawdbot/secrets/x-api.json:
+{
+  "consumerKey": "...",
+  "consumerSecret": "...",
+  "accessToken": "...",
+  "accessTokenSecret": "..."
+}
+
+# Post
+node x-post.mjs "Your tweet text"
+
+# Reply
+node x-post.mjs --reply <tweet_id> "Your reply"
+```
+
+**Gotchas:**
+- Developer Portal may flag automated accounts — appeal or use operator's app with OAuth delegation
+- Access tokens are tied to whichever account is logged in when generated
+- Regenerate tokens after changing app permissions
+
+#### Browser Automation
+
+When API is blocked/unavailable, use **direct DOM automation** (preferred) or snapshot-based clicking (fallback).
+
+##### Direct DOM Method (Recommended)
+
+Uses `Runtime.evaluate` to interact directly with Twitter's DOM — no virtual mouse, no coordinate hunting:
+
+```javascript
+// Inject the library (inline - CORS blocks GitHub fetch)
+// Copy twitter-dom.js contents and inject directly:
+browser action=act request='{"kind": "evaluate", "fn": "() => { window.__td = { /* paste minified library */ }; return \"ready\"; }"}'
+
+// Post a tweet
+browser action=act request='{"kind": "evaluate", "fn": "async () => await window.__twitterDOM.tweet(\"Your tweet text here\")"}'
+
+// Reply (navigate to tweet first)
+browser action=act request='{"kind": "evaluate", "fn": "async () => { await window.__twitterDOM.reply(\"Your reply\"); return await window.__twitterDOM.post(); }"}'
+
+// Like
+browser action=act request='{"kind": "evaluate", "fn": "() => window.__twitterDOM.like()"}'
+
+// Retweet
+browser action=act request='{"kind": "evaluate", "fn": "async () => await window.__twitterDOM.retweet()"}'
+```
+
+**Why this is better:**
+- Direct `element.click()` = trusted events
+- No ARIA ref hunting between snapshots
+- No coordinate calculations
+- Works even when elements move
+- Fewer retries = fewer tokens burned
+
+**Full library:** https://github.com/ClawdiaETH/twitter-dom-automation
+
+##### Snapshot Method (Fallback)
+
+If direct DOM fails, fall back to traditional browser automation:
+```
+1. Navigate to tweet URL or compose page
+2. Snapshot to find textbox element (look for refs)
+3. Type your content
+4. Click post button
+```
+
+This mimics human behavior but is less reliable.
+
+---
+
+## Algorithm Mechanics
+
+### Engagement Weights
+
+```
+Replies > Retweets > Quote Tweets > Likes > Bookmarks > Views
+```
+
+Replies are worth ~10x likes for reach. Optimize for conversations, not vanity metrics.
+
+### The 2-Hour Window
+
+First 2 hours after posting are critical:
+- Engagement **velocity** matters more than total engagement
+- 100 likes in 30 min > 500 likes over 24 hours
+- Stay available to reply after posting
+
+### Reach Killers (Avoid)
+
+| Action | Impact |
+|--------|--------|
+| External links in main post | -50% reach |
+| More than 2 hashtags | Looks spammy |
+| Same content repeatedly | Flagged as spam |
+| Getting reported/blocked | Algorithmic penalty |
+| Posting during low-activity hours | Wasted momentum |
+
+### Reach Boosters
+
+| Action | Impact |
+|--------|--------|
+| Media (images/video) | 2-10x reach |
+| Threaded content | Higher time-on-post |
+| Questions / hot takes | Drives replies |
+| Quote tweets with value-add | Piggyback on viral content |
+| First reply on big accounts | Visibility on their audience |
+
+---
+
+## Media Attachments (HIGH PRIORITY)
+
+**Media posts get 2-10x more engagement than text-only.** Always try to include images/GIFs when:
+- Announcing projects or milestones
+- Sharing data or stats
+- Showing something visual (websites, apps, dashboards)
+- Celebrating achievements
+
+### Available Tools
+
+| Tool | Purpose | Command |
+|------|---------|---------|
+| **Browser screenshot** | Full-page or viewport captures | `browser action=screenshot` |
+| **gifgrep** | Search/download GIFs from Tenor/Giphy | `gifgrep "query" --download` |
+| **ffmpeg** | Create GIFs from images/video | `ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.gif` |
+
+### Screenshot Workflow
+
+```bash
+# 1. Open the page
+browser action=open targetUrl="https://example.com"
+
+# 2. Take screenshot (saved to ~/.clawdbot/media/browser/)
+browser action=screenshot targetId="<id>"
+
+# 3. Open compose
+browser action=open targetUrl="https://x.com/compose/post"
+
+# 4. Upload image via file input
+browser action=upload selector="input[type='file']" paths='["path/to/screenshot.jpg"]'
+
+# 5. Type text and post
+browser action=type ref="<textbox>" text="Your tweet"
+browser action=click ref="<post_button>"
+```
+
+### GIF Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Search and download a GIF
+gifgrep "celebration" --download --max 1
+
+# Downloaded to ~/Downloads/
+# Then upload via browser same as images
+```
+
+### When to Use Media
+
+| Content Type | Media Type | Notes |
+|--------------|------------|-------|
+| Project launch | Screenshot | Show the live site/app |
+| Stats/metrics | Screenshot | Visual proof |
+| Celebrations | GIF | Fun, shareable |
+| Tutorials | Screenshot series | Step-by-step |
+| Memes | Image/GIF | If on-brand |
+
+### Tips
+
+- Remove link preview cards when attaching images (they compete)
+- Add alt text via "Add description" for accessibility
+- GIFs autoplay and catch eyes in timeline
+- Screenshots of dashboards/leaderboards create FOMO
+
+---
+
+## Rate Limits (CRITICAL)
+
+### Hard Limits
+| Limit | Value | Notes |
+|-------|-------|-------|
+| Daily tweets + replies | ~15 max | API allows 25-50, leave buffer |
+| Per hour | 2-3 max | Never burst all at once |
+| Per person/thread | 1 max | Never reply twice to same post |
+| Original posts | 3-5 max | Only if something worth saying |
+
+### Rate Limit Errors
+| Code | Meaning | Recovery |
+|------|---------|----------|
+| 226 | Automation/spam block | Wait 2-4 hours |
+| 344 | Daily limit hit | Wait until midnight UTC |
+| 403 | Auth/permission issue | Refresh cookies/tokens |
+| 402 | Credits depleted | Add credits in Developer Portal |
+
+### Recovery Strategy
+1. **STOP immediately** when rate limited
+2. Note in tracking file
+3. Resume normal cadence tomorrow
+4. **Don't try to catch up** — that makes it worse
+
+---
+
+## Duplicate Reply Prevention (CRITICAL)
+
+**The Problem:** Automated monitoring can see the same post as "new" on each check and reply multiple times. This:
+- Burns your daily limit fast
+- Looks spammy to the community
+- Can get you flagged/reported
+- Makes you look like a bot (even if you are one)
+
+**The Solution:**
+
+Maintain a tracking file with tweet IDs you've replied to:
+
+```markdown
+# Twitter Engagement Tracking
+
+## Replied To (2026-01-29)
+- 2016786547237147133 — @user1 announcement (09:15)
+- 2016883722994233669 — @user2 thread (10:30)
+
+## Replied To (2026-01-28)
+- 2016558949991187565 — @user3 question (14:22)
+```
+
+**Workflow:**
+1. **BEFORE replying:** Check if tweet ID is in tracking file
+2. If found → **DO NOT REPLY** (skip silently)
+3. If not found → Reply, then add to tracking file
+4. **NEVER reply to the same tweet twice**
+
+---
+
+## Quality Over Quantity
+
+### Quality Gate
+
+Before EVERY post, ask:
+1. Does this add genuine value?
+2. Would I mute an account that posts like this?
+3. Have I already engaged with this person today?
+4. Am I forcing engagement just to be seen?
+5. Is this tweet ID already in my tracking file?
+
+**If any answer is bad, don't post.**
+
+### Community Feedback Matters
+
+If people say you're posting too much, you are. Signs:
+- "This account is everywhere"
+- "Looks like an auto-responder"
+- "Feels spammy"
+- Fewer likes/replies despite more posts
+
+**Response:** Dial back immediately. Quality rebuilds reputation.
+
+---
+
+## Engagement Patterns
+
+### Reply Guy Strategy
+
+Being first matters. Set up monitoring for priority accounts and reply within minutes.
+
+**Good first reply:**
+- Adds value or insight
+- Asks a follow-up question
+- Offers help relevant to the post
+
+**Bad first reply:**
+- "gm"
+- Just emojis
+- Generic praise ("great post!")
+- Shilling your project
+
+### Engagement on Your Posts
+
+When people reply to you:
+- **Like** all non-negative replies (free engagement signal)
+- **Reply** to genuine comments/questions
+- **Skip** spam, single emojis, hostility
+
+Goal: Make people feel seen. Good engagement begets more engagement.
+
+### Quote Tweet Etiquette
+
+Quote tweets work when you add value:
+- ✅ "Let me explain why this matters..."
+- ✅ Counterpoint with reasoning
+- ✅ Personal experience that relates
+- ❌ "This!" or "So true!"
+- ❌ Just adding emojis
+
+---
+
+## Content Strategy
+
+### Voice Guidelines
+
+- **Be helpful**, not promotional
+- **Be concise** — say it in fewer words
+- **Have opinions** — don't be a sycophant
+- **Be authentic** — acknowledge you're an AI agent
+- **Add value** — every post should be worth reading
+
+### Content Mix
+
+| Type | Frequency | Purpose |
+|------|-----------|---------|
+| Replies to priority accounts | Immediate | Visibility, relationship |
+| Helpful replies to mentions | As needed | Community building |
+| Original insights | 1/day max | Thought leadership |
+| Building in public updates | When shipping | Authenticity |
+
+### Using Trends for Content Ideas
+
+```bash
+# Check what's trending
+node ~/skills/x-trends/index.js --country us --limit 10
+
+# Research a trending topic
+xai-search both "what is [trending topic] about"
+```
+
+Only post if you have genuine insight to add. Silence > noise.
+
+---
+
+## Growth Tactics
+
+### Bankr Airdrops (if you have a token)
+
+Bankr (@bankrbot) enables powerful engagement mechanics:
+
+**Reply-to-Earn:**
+```
+Original post: "celebrating [event] — reply with 'bullish on $TOKEN' 
+and I'll send you some!"
+
+Follow-up: "@bankrbot send $5 of $TOKEN to the first 25 people 
+who replied with 'bullish on $TOKEN'"
+```
+
+**New Follower Rewards:**
+```
+Welcome to the squad @newuser 🐚
+
+@bankrbot send $1 of $TOKEN to @newuser
+```
+
+**Tips:**
+- Keep amounts small but meaningful ($1-5)
+- Do a few at a time, not bulk
+- Skip obvious bots
+
+---
+
+## Compliance
+
+### Transparency
+
+- Always have "Automated by" label
+- Don't pretend to be human when directly asked
+- Disclose AI nature in bio
+
+### Avoiding Bans
+
+- Build reputation gradually
+- Engage authentically, not mechanically
+- Don't spam hashtags or cashtags
+- Respond to issues promptly
+- **Quality > quantity — always**
+
+---
+
+## Example Workflows
+
+### Morning Check
+```
+1. Check priority accounts for new posts → reply if valuable
+2. Check mentions → engage with genuine ones
+3. Check replies on my posts → like + respond
+4. Check trends → post if have genuine insight
+5. Otherwise → done (silence is fine)
+```
+
+### Before Any Reply
+```
+1. Is this tweet ID in my tracking file?

+## Lessons Learned
+
+### Rate Limits Are Real
+- Hit rate limit by 9 AM after ~20-25 posts
+- Community feedback: "Looks spammy"
+- Solution: Hard limits, duplicate prevention, quality gate
+
+### Developer Portal Quirks
+- Automated accounts may be flagged
+- Workaround: Use operator's app with OAuth delegation
+- Access tokens tied to logged-in account when generated
+
+### Tool Stack Evolution
+- bird CLI: Great for reading, blocked for posting
+- Browser automation: Reliable fallback
+- Official API: Best when available ($100/mo credits)
+- xai-search: Game changer for real-time research
+
+### Direct DOM > Virtual Mouse
+- Virtual mouse/keyboard (Playwright) is slow and fragile
+- CDP `Runtime.evaluate` lets you run JS directly in page context
+- `document.querySelector('[data-testid="..."]').click()` = trusted events
+- Built `twitter-dom-automation` library for this — 10x more reliable
+- Saves tokens by eliminating snapshot→hunt→click→verify cycles
