What is this skill?
Build platform-native content without flattening the author's real voice into platform slop.
When to use
- writing X posts or threads
- drafting LinkedIn posts or launch updates
- scripting short-form video or YouTube explainers
- repurposing articles, podcasts, demos, docs, or internal notes into public content
- building a launch sequence or ongoing content system around a product, insight, or narrative
Non-Negotiables
- Start from source material, not generic post formulas.
- Adapt the format for the platform, not the persona.
- One post should carry one actual claim.
- Specificity beats adjectives.
- No engagement bait unless the user explicitly asks for it.
Source-First Workflow
Before drafting, identify the source set:
- published articles
- notes or internal memos
- product demos
- docs or changelogs
- transcripts
- screenshots
- prior posts from the same author
If the user wants a specific voice, build a voice profile from real examples before writing.
Use brand-voice as the canonical workflow when voice consistency matters across more than one output.
Voice Handling
brand-voice is the canonical voice layer.
Run it first when:
- there are multiple downstream outputs
- the user explicitly cares about writing style
- the content is launch, outreach, or reputation-sensitive
Reuse the resulting VOICE PROFILE here instead of rebuilding a second voice model.
If the user wants Affaan / ECC voice specifically, still treat brand-voice as the source of truth and feed it the best live or source-derived material available.
Hard Bans
Delete and rewrite any of these:
- "In today's rapidly evolving landscape"
- "game-changer", "revolutionary", "cutting-edge"
- "here's why this matters" unless it is followed immediately by something concrete
- ending with a LinkedIn-style question just to farm replies
- forced casualness on LinkedIn
- fake engagement padding that was not present in the source material
Platform Adaptation Rules
X
- open with the strongest claim, artifact, or tension
- keep the compression if the source voice is compressed
- if writing a thread, each post must advance the argument
- do not pad with context the audience does not need
- expand only enough for people outside the immediate niche to follow
- do not turn it into a fake lesson post unless the source material actually is reflective
- no corporate inspiration cadence
- no praise-stacking, no "journey" filler
Short Video
- script around the visual sequence and proof points
- first seconds should show the result, problem, or punch
- do not write narration that sounds better on paper than on screen
YouTube
- show the result or tension early
- organize by argument or progression, not filler sections
- use chaptering only when it helps clarity
Newsletter
- open with the point, conflict, or artifact
- do not spend the first paragraph warming up
- every section needs to add something new
Repurposing Flow
- Pick the anchor asset.
- Extract 3 to 7 atomic claims or scenes.
- Rank them by sharpness, novelty, and proof.
- Assign one strong idea per output.
- Adapt structure for each platform.
- Strip platform-shaped filler.
- Run the quality gate.
Deliverables
When asked for a campaign, return:
- a short voice profile if voice matching matters
- the core angle
- platform-native drafts
- posting order only if it helps execution
- gaps that must be filled before publishing
Quality Gate
Before delivering:
- every draft sounds like the intended author, not the platform stereotype
- every draft contains a real claim, proof point, or concrete observation
- no generic hype language remains
- no fake engagement bait remains
- no duplicated copy across platforms unless requested
- any CTA is earned and user-approved
