SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Writing content that performs on social platforms requires knowing truncation points, algorithm signals, and format constraints that generic writing advice ignores. This Skill produces posts, newsletters, and short-form video engineered around each platform's actual mechanics. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Platform-optimized copy: Generates posts for LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Instagram feed and Stories, TikTok captions, and newsletters using current character limits, truncation windows, and algorithm signals. - Voice matching and hook formulas: Analyzes 3-5 existing posts to extract voice patterns, then applies named hook patterns (Contrarian, Curiosity gap, Specificity signal) instead of generic openers. - Repurposing waterfall: Converts one long-form piece into 8+ assets including threads, carousels, Stories, and TikTok scripts. - TikTok video production: Composites 9:16 short-form video with FFmpeg, AI-generated clips, brand fonts, and music, with mandatory disclosure of free vs. paid API quality tiers. - Use Case: Turn a 1,500-word blog post into a LinkedIn post under the 110-character mobile hook cutoff, an X thread, an Instagram poll Story, and a 4-scene TikTok video in one workflow. ## Quick Start Repurpose this blog post into a LinkedIn post, an X thread, and an Instagram Story using my past posts as voice reference.

Frequently Asked Questions about content-machine

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a LinkedIn post that doesn't get truncated?

LinkedIn truncates at roughly 140 characters on desktop and 110 on mobile, so write the hook to fit 110 characters. Keep total length around 800-1,000 characters with short paragraphs, and end with a single question CTA.

How to repurpose a blog post into social media content?

Use the repurposing waterfall: extract each H2 as a tweet for an X thread, pick the most contrarian point for a LinkedIn post, convert sections into a carousel, and strip the hook to one line for an Instagram Story. One long-form piece yields 8 or more assets.

How many hashtags should I use on Instagram in 2025?

Use 3-5 hashtags, not 30. Instagram's official guidance reversed the old advice, and 20 or more hashtags now reads as spam and can suppress reach. Place them inline or at the end of the caption, not in a comment.

Can this skill produce TikTok videos or just captions?

It can produce full TikTok-format video at 1080x1920 using FFmpeg with AI-generated clips, brand fonts, text overlays, and music. It discloses two quality tiers upfront: built-in media generation or paid external APIs like Runway, which require your own API key.

Why are my newsletter open rates misleading?

Apple Mail Privacy Protection pre-fetches tracking pixels and inflates open rates by roughly 18 percentage points. Track click rate (benchmark around 2%) and click-to-open rate (10-20%) instead of opens.

What are the limitations of this content creation approach?

It cannot post to platforms, access analytics, or generate static images directly. Voice matching quality depends on how many sample posts you provide, and paid video APIs require your consent and your own API key.
