What fires a follower tracker
The bot checks the tracked account's Followers list for new accounts.
When first created or re-armed, the bot reads the current Followers list without announcing anything. Only followers gained after that moment announce.
New followers announce oldest-first. The bot remembers the accounts seen, so someone unfollowing and following again stays silent.
Setup
Setup
- Open Dashboard → Beta → Automations with the bot selected.
- Click Add and pick Follower Tracker in the Which automation? picker — opens New Follower Tracker.
- Enter the tracked X handle. The dashboard looks it up and shows the account, or says the handle is invalid, not found on X, or private.
- Pick the destination group from Posts in group… — only groups already authorized for the bot are listed.
- Optional: add rules at the bottom of the same form — rules here are about the new follower.
- Click Create.
- Optional, from the saved automation's card: open the Topics icon to route its messages into a forum topic. There is no recap on a follower tracker.

Output
The card opens with the follow graphic — the new follower's avatar on the left, the tracked account's on the right, so the arrow points at the account you are watching. The blurred banner behind it is the tracked account's, and the line under it counts the tracked account's followers. Then a stats table — Followers, Following, Posts, Joined — and the new follower's bio.
Buttons under the card: View <name> opens the new follower's profile; Fetch 5 most recent posts (then Fetch 5 more posts) adds their posts to the card; Fetch <name> Followers posts their full follower list as a file.
