What problem does it solve? Writing launch and progress posts from a blank page produces copy that reads as generated, buries the claim, or mismatches the platform. This Skill provides a structured workflow — audience contract, exemplar-based drafting, objection-ladder thread ordering, tell-based refinement, and preflight checks — so posts land with the intended audience. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured drafting workflow: Define an audience contract, borrow the shape of a proven exemplar post, assign one job per post, and order threads as an objection ladder. - Refinement and preservation gates: Hunt rhetorical tells, enforce one claim per post, and preserve the author's voice (lowercase, fragments, rhythm) instead of over-polishing. - Preflight and postflight checks: Verify links, character counts, alt text, install commands against the registry, and sync the live post as the authoritative copy. - Image and video mechanics: Companion guidance covers headless-Chrome stills at 1280x720, pixel-measured layout checks with Pillow, and adding silent audio tracks for X uploads. - Use Case: A founder launching a developer tool drafts an X thread where post one shows the command table, post two the demo video, and the first reply carries the repo link — then adapts the same launch into a single LinkedIn post. ## Quick Start Use the writing-social-posts skill to draft an X launch thread for my project, starting from an exemplar post I admire.
