Get your Bluesky bot running in 5 minutes!
4
-
5
-
## Prerequisites
6
-
7
-
- Python 3.12+
8
-
- A Bluesky account
9
-
- An Anthropic API key (for AI responses)
10
-
11
-
## Setup
12
-
13
-
1. **Clone and install:**
14
-
```bash
15
-
git clone <repo>
16
-
cd bot
17
-
uv sync
18
-
```
19
-
20
-
2. **Configure environment:**
21
-
```bash
22
-
cp .env.example .env
23
-
# Edit .env with your credentials:
24
-
# - BLUESKY_HANDLE: Your bot's handle
25
-
# - BLUESKY_PASSWORD: App password (not your main password!)
26
-
# - ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: Your Anthropic key
27
-
```
28
-
29
-
3. **Run the bot:**
30
-
```bash
31
-
just dev
32
-
```
33
-
34
-
That's it! Your bot is now listening for mentions.
35
-
36
-
## Test It Out
37
-
38
-
1. From another Bluesky account, mention your bot
39
-
2. Watch the terminal - you'll see the mention come in
40
-
3. The bot will respond based on its personality
41
-
42
-
## Customize
43
-
44
-
- Edit `personalities/phi.md` to change how your bot thinks and speaks
45
-
- Or create a new personality file and update `PERSONALITY_FILE` in `.env`
46
-
47
-
## Monitoring
48
-
49
-
Visit http://localhost:8000/status to see:
50
-
- Bot status and uptime
51
-
- Mentions and responses count
52
-
- Current mode (AI or placeholder)
53
-
54
-
## Troubleshooting
55
-
56
-
**Bot gives placeholder responses?**
57
-
- Check your `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` is set correctly
58
-
- Restart the bot after changing `.env`
59
-
60
-
**Not seeing mentions?**
61
-
- Verify your `BLUESKY_HANDLE` and `BLUESKY_PASSWORD`
62
-
- Make sure you're using an app password, not your main password
