Method (Execute in Order)

1. DIAGNOSE

Define the product, category, offer, audience, desired action. Identify the conversion barrier, emotional lever, and most viral-friendly angle.

2. RESEARCH (Mandatory — Use web_search)

• Viral formats on TikTok, Instagram Reels, X in the product category
• Competitor ad angles, messaging patterns, weaknesses
• Audience pain points, objections, desire signals, social proof patterns
• Relevant meme structures, creator-style content, short-form hook styles
• Search intent for SEO, AI answer-engine patterns for GEO
• Seasonal/cultural relevance

3. STRATEGIZE

• Campaign big idea
• Primary promise
• Secondary hooks
• Proof and trust devices
• 3-4 audience segments with message matches

4. CREATE

Platform-specific ad concepts:

X (Twitter):

• Thread ad: hook tweet + 3-5 tweet thread
• Single image/video ad: headline (70 chars), body (200 chars), visual direction, CTA

TikTok:

• Trend-jacking concept (current audio/template, first 2 seconds critical)
• Founder/Expert story (on-camera persona, script, b-roll)
• UGC-style demo (screen recording/unboxing/tutorial format)
• Each: hook, narrative structure, captions (150 chars), 3-5 hashtags

Instagram:

• Reel ad: 9:16, 15-30s, story arc, caption hierarchy
• Carousel ad: 5-10 cards, slide-by-slide copy
• Story ad: 3-5 frames, interactive elements

5. Image Ad Concepts (3+)

Per concept: creative angle, purpose, scene description, composition, subject styling, background, lighting, color mood, text overlay, AI image prompt (engine-aware), negative prompt, aspect ratio, seed value.

6. Video Ad Concepts (3+)

Per concept: objective, hook, audience tension, 6-8 frame storyboard with timestamps, shot list (type/duration/transition), camera direction, motion style, on-screen text timing, VO script (timed), end card, CTA, duration, aspect ratio.

7. Copy Asset Library

• 10+ headlines
• 15+ hooks (open loop, statistic shock, relatable problem, counterintuitive truth, emotional confession)
• 5+ captions per platform
• 8+ CTAs (direct, curiosity, scarcity, social proof, benefit, platform-optimized)
• Low-friction version + high-conviction version

8. SEO & GEO Pack

• Primary/secondary/semantic keyword clusters
• Meta descriptions, alt text, FAQ schema
• GEO: query-style headings, answer-first phrasing, fact clusters, entity clarity

9. A/B Test Matrix

• Variable matrix, sample sizes, primary/secondary metrics, statistical threshold, optimization playbook

10. Brand Safety & Compliance

• Claims verification (no invented stats)
• Platform policy checks (X, TikTok, Instagram, FTC)
• Kill switch criteria

11. Export

Deliver as structured, copyable Markdown. Ready for human team to publish or AI tools to generate final assets.

Creative Standard (Non-Negotiable)

• 1 big idea, 3-7 angles, 5+ hooks, 3+ image concepts, 3+ video concepts, 3+ captions per platform, 5+ CTAs
• One proof-led, one curiosity-led, one founder/UGC, one direct-response, one trend-native concept
• Low-friction + high-conviction variants

Platform Rules

• X: Sharp hooks, contrarian framing, thread-ready, quote-tweetability
• TikTok: Native creator voice, first 2s is everything, cuts every 2-3s, natural not ad-voice
• Instagram: Polished but native, caption hierarchy, carousel narratives, story-driven

Production Tools (Use what's available)

• Images: fal.ai FLUX (schnell/dev/pro-ultra) or image_generate
• Video: video_generate (openrouter/veo-3.1-fast)
• Audio: music_generate (openrouter/lyria-3-pro)
• Always specify exact tool/model, settings, and engine-aware prompts per asset

Quality Control

• No invented claims, stats, endorsements, or guarantees
• No bland corporate marketing language
• No vague fluff, duplicate ideas, or placeholder language
• Every asset distinct, usable, and production-ready
• All assumptions clearly labeled

Available scripts

• scripts/claims_check.py — Verify ad copy for regulated terms, unsubstantiated claims, false urgency, and before/after risks. Run before finalizing any campaign. Pipe text or pass as argument: python3 scripts/claims_check.py "ad copy text" or echo "text" | python3 scripts/claims_check.py
• scripts/validate_skill.py — Validate any Agent Skill against the agentskills.io spec. Checks frontmatter, name/description, body length, and script references. Run: python3 scripts/validate_skill.py path/to/skill/

Output Style

Sharpness of a top agency deck, usability of a production brief. Clear headings, compact high-signal language, strategic confidence, execution-ready detail.

Before producing any campaign, read references/corrections.md — it documents real failures: claiming unavailable tools (Runway/Luma), over-explaining platform character limits the agent already knows, and accepting the spec as reality without verifying tool access.
