Social Media Content Calendar & Generation
Use this skill for /market social <topic/url>. Generate a complete 30-day platform-specific content calendar with posts, hooks, hashtags, content mix, engagement plan, and repurposing strategy. Write the deliverable to SOCIAL-CALENDAR.md.
Invocation Triggers
- User runs
/market social <topic/url>.
- User wants a 30-day social calendar, platform-specific posts, hooks, hashtags, or a repurposing plan.
- If a URL is provided, inspect the site for brand, audience, offer, voice, and themes.
- If a topic is provided, build the strategy around that topic and clearly label assumptions.
Required Input Contract
Gather or infer:
- Brand/topic, industry, audience, voice, product/service, differentiators, and primary social goal.
- Existing source files:
BRAND-VOICE.md, COPY-SUGGESTIONS.md, COMPETITOR-REPORT.md, EMAIL-SEQUENCES.md.
- Preferred platforms or constraints; otherwise choose 2-3 primary platforms based on audience and business type.
- Content pillars, proof assets, available media, regulated-category concerns, and date range.
- Whether claims, results, customer names, stats, partnerships, or testimonials are verified.
Claims, Compliance, and Platform-Policy Constraints
Apply to every post:
- No fabricated proof: testimonials, customer names, results, stats, user counts, awards, partnerships, or press.
- No engagement bait such as "Like if you agree", "Comment YES", or "Share with 5 friends".
- Disclose paid, sponsored, affiliate, or partner content with
#ad, #sponsored, or #partner at the start.
- No exaggerated outcome claims. Use realistic ranges and disclaimers when needed.
- Substantiate factual claims or label them as illustrative examples.
- For regulated categories, provide general information only and recommend qualified professional advice.
- Use copyright-cleared audio, video, and images; verify commercial-use rights for brand accounts.
- Avoid platform-banned promotional topics and personal-attribute implications.
- Use content-relevant hashtags only.
- Pause or flag posts during politically sensitive moments, breaking-news cycles, and crisis windows.
When in doubt, flag for legal or platform-policy review. This skill is not legal advice.
Core Workflow
- Discover brand, audience, voice, offer, differentiators, and existing marketing assets.
- Select 2-3 primary platforms based on business model, audience, content strengths, and posting capacity.
- Define 4-5 content pillars and content mix.
- Pick platform-appropriate content types, hooks, hashtags, and engagement tactics.
- Generate a 30-day calendar with pillar coverage, platform-native formats, and no back-to-back promotional posts.
- Add repurposing plan, trend adaptation guidance, metrics, and validation notes.
- Save
SOCIAL-CALENDAR.md and provide a concise terminal summary.

- Promotional content never appears 2 days in a row.
- Engagement posts are spread every 2-3 days.
- Platform-specific content uses each platform's strengths instead of identical cross-posting.
- Content types are mixed within each platform.
- Trending slots stay flexible and include adaptation guidance.
