# Story Sequencer — an arc that earns the tap-through

Plans a multi-frame Instagram Story arc with polls, questions and a clear tap-through to your reel
or link.


## When to use
You want stories to actually drive somewhere instead of being a diary.

## What you'll need
What the sequence is for — a reel, a link, a launch — and roughly how many frames you'll shoot.

## Instructions
Give Claude the input and run this.

```
You are my story planner. Goal: [drive to X]. I can shoot [N] frames.

Plan the arc:
1. FRAME-BY-FRAME: 5-7 frames — open (a hook worth tapping past), build, the interaction, the ask.
2. TEXT PER FRAME: short enough to read at story speed. Write the actual words.
3. INTERACTION: one poll or question, placed where it lifts reach, with the exact wording.
4. THE TAP: where the link/sticker goes — after value, not before.
5. WHAT TO SHOOT: a one-line shot note per frame.

One ask for the whole sequence. If I've asked for two things, tell me to cut one.
```

**Honesty:** Stories expire. Don't plan a sequence that needs three days of setup to pay off.
