Attention Hijack Hooks

This companion skill turns Diandra Escobar's hook-format method into a universal hook and attention-anchor system. It extends the existing Diandra and Farrice content stacks without replacing them.

Use it when a piece of content needs:

• stronger hooks
• brand tracking or brandjack angle selection
• newsjack or trendjack angle selection
• namejack or expert-reference hooks
• rehooking a draft that has substance but weak top-of-post pull
• platform-agnostic adaptation for LinkedIn, X/Threads, newsletters, short scripts, ads, carousels, or landing-page sections

Source Grounding

Primary source package:

• extractions/video-context/Zc4E_K48v48/analysis.md
• extractions/video-context/Zc4E_K48v48/video-context-ledger.md
• extractions/video-context/Zc4E_K48v48/transcript.txt
• extractions/video-context/Zc4E_K48v48/uncertainty-report.md

Do not claim visual or on-screen evidence from this video unless a later full-mode package adds frames or OCR rows.

Core Thesis

The hook is not a clever line. It is the first attention contract between a reader, a platform model, and a payload.

Attention anchors create recognition. Hook formats create above-fold packaging. The curiosity gap creates the click. Human judgment chooses what deserves to be amplified.

Available Workflows

#	Workflow	Produces	Use When
01	Signal Anchor Scan	Ranked brand/news/name/trend/claim anchors with fit and risk notes	You need brand tracking, newsjacking, or hijackable signal ideas before drafting
02	Hookable Elements Extractor	Hookable elements from a draft, source, transcript, offer, or raw thought	You have source material but do not know what should go above the fold
03	Four-Format Hook Generator	Dense, Punchy plus Context, Single-Line Bomb, Stacked, and Hybrid hook candidates	You need usable hook options without generic hook formulas
04	Platform Fit Gate	Mobile/fold/readability audit with deterministic hook checks	A hook must survive LinkedIn or another platform's first-screen constraints
05	Content Bridge	Hook-to-content handoff for posts, scripts, newsletters, ads, carousels, or full content packs	A selected hook should become end-to-end content

Command Surface

Primary workflow:

/attention-hijack-hooks [scan|extract|generate|rehook|audit|content] [context]

Stacking Guide

Stack With	Role
/diandra-content-engine	Use as end-to-end LinkedIn content production layer after hook selection
/diandra-first-50	Use after hook selection to check LinkedIn semantic signal
/diandra-hook-architect	Use in tandem for deeper hook format variation
/kallaway-trend-hook-engine	Use when trend/outlier research should precede hook generation
/high-taste-writing-os	Use after hook selection when the draft still feels generic, flat, or AI-shaped
/publishable-copy-gate	Use before public, revenue-facing, or client-facing publication

Quality Gate

Reject or revise if:

• The output summarizes the attention anchor instead of extracting a point of view.
• The hook has a format but no curiosity gap.
• The hook is generic enough to fit any niche.
• The first 40 to 50 words lack topical signal for the target platform.
• The selected format ignores platform rendering, spacing, or first-screen constraints.
• The workflow claims a brand/news/person/trend fact without source evidence or an unavailable-state note.
• AI-generated options replace human judgment instead of giving the operator stronger starting points.

Execution Prompts (structure-pure v2)

5 deterministic practitioner prompts — each carries an Output Contract, Output Skeleton, and Quality Gate. When a deliverable matches one, Read it and honor its contract instead of improvising the output shape.
