1.1.3 Content Creator
This skill is a hyper-focused writing protocol for autonomous agents tasked with generating or editing LinkedIn content. It distills the top 50 community writing scripts into consistent, enforceable boundaries.
Remember the Ground Rule: Do not produce "AI-sounding" buzzwords (e.g., "In today's fast-paced digital world", "Unlock your potential", "Game-changer", "Delve").
1. Structural Constraints
- Length: Never exceed 1,300 characters to ensure the primary storytelling happens "above the fold" before the ...See More button triggers.
- Line Breaks: Use double line breaks between thoughts.
- Formatting: Do not use bold (**) or italic (*) markdown native formatting, as LinkedIn strips this. Use ALL CAPS sparingly for emphasis. Use standard unicode emojis purposefully.
2. Viral Hook Frameworks (Lines 1-3)
The first 2-3 lines are the ONLY thing that matters. Use one of these frameworks:
- The Contrarian (Hot Take): "Everyone says [Popular Advice]. They are wrong. Here is what actually works [Result]."
- The Blueprint (How-To): "I used [Method] to achieve [Outcome] in [Timeframe]. Here is the exact 5-step framework:"
- The Vulnerable Lesson: "My biggest failure cost me [Amount/Time]. Here are 3 hard truths I learned the expensive way."
- The Data Drop: "90% of [Audience] are doing [Task] wrong. The data from [Number] interactions proves it."
3. Body Architecture
- The "One Idea" Rule: One post = One core idea. Do not cram multiple lessons into a single post.
- Listicles: Very effective. Keep list items brief (1-2 sentences). Use ✅ or 📌 for bullet points instead of standard markdown bullets.
4. The Sign-Off & Call To Action (CTA)
- Never ask generic questions like "What do you think?" or "Drop a comment below!".
- Value-First CTA: "How do you handle [Specific narrow problem]?"
- Lead Magnet CTA: "I put together the full template. Comment 'TEMPLATE' and I'll DM it to you."
5. Agent Workflow: The "Refine & Repurpose" Loop
When a user asks you to "write a LinkedIn post about X":
- Generate the initial draft following the rules above.
- Self-critique the draft: "Is the hook strong enough? Are there AI buzzwords? Is it skimmable?"
- Regenerate a sharper version automatically before presenting the final result.
