Social Media Content Skill

Research First (Required)

Before writing any social media content, you MUST delegate research:

1. Use the task tool with subagent_type: "researcher"
2. In the description, specify BOTH the topic AND where to save:

task(
    subagent_type="researcher",
    description="Research [TOPIC]. Save findings to research/[slug].md"
)

1. After research completes, read the findings file before writing

Output Structure (Required)

Every social media post MUST have both content AND an image:

LinkedIn posts:

linkedin/
└── <slug>/
    ├── post.md        # The post content
    └── image.png      # REQUIRED: Generated visual

Twitter/X threads:

tweets/
└── <slug>/
    ├── thread.md      # The thread content
    └── image.png      # REQUIRED: Generated visual

You MUST complete both steps:

1. Write the content to the appropriate path
2. Generate an image using generate_social_image and save alongside the post

A social media post is NOT complete without its image.

Platform Guidelines

LinkedIn

Format:

• 1,300 character limit (show more after ~210 chars)
• First line is crucial - make it hook
• Use line breaks for readability
• 3-5 hashtags at the end

Tone:

• Professional but personal
• Share insights and learnings
• Ask questions to drive engagement
• Use "I" and share experiences

Structure:

[Hook - 1 compelling line]
 
[Empty line]
 
[Context - why this matters]
 
[Empty line]
 
[Main insight - 2-3 short paragraphs]
 
[Empty line]
 
[Call to action or question]
 
#hashtag1 #hashtag2 #hashtag3

Twitter/X

Format:

• 280 character limit per tweet
• Threads for longer content (use 1/thread format)
• No more than 2 hashtags per tweet

Thread Structure:

1/ [Hook - the main insight]
 
2/ [Supporting point 1]
 
3/ [Supporting point 2]
 
4/ [Example or evidence]
 
5/ [Conclusion + CTA]

Image Generation

Every social media post needs an eye-catching image. Use the generate_social_image tool:

generate_social_image(prompt="A detailed description...", platform="linkedin", slug="your-post-slug")

The tool saves the image to <platform>/<slug>/image.png.

Social Image Best Practices

Social images need to work at small sizes in crowded feeds:

• Bold, simple compositions - one clear focal point
• High contrast - stands out when scrolling
• No text in image - too small to read, platforms add their own
• Square or 4:5 ratio - works across platforms

Writing Effective Prompts

Include these elements:

1. Single focal point: One clear subject, not a busy scene
2. Bold style: Vibrant colors, strong shapes, high contrast
3. Simple background: Solid color, gradient, or subtle texture
4. Mood/energy: Match the post tone (inspiring, urgent, thoughtful)

Example Prompts

For an insight/tip post:

Single glowing lightbulb floating against a deep purple gradient background, lightbulb made of interconnected golden geometric lines, rays of soft light emanating outward. Minimal, striking, high contrast. Square composition.

For announcements/news:

Abstract rocket ship made of colorful geometric shapes launching upward with a trail of particles. Bright coral and teal color scheme against clean white background. Energetic, celebratory mood. Bold flat illustration style.
