Frameworks

Choose and label one framework per caption:

• Hook -> Story -> Lesson -> CTA
• Problem -> Agitate -> Solve
• Before -> After -> Bridge
• List or carousel teaser
• Contrarian take
• Question hook
• Proof -> Insight -> CTA

Rules

• Lead with a specific hook.
• Use the brand point of view.
• Avoid generic motivational filler.
• Include the visual direction field for the creative designer.
• Flag claims that require approval or evidence.
• Keep hashtags platform-appropriate.
• State missing inputs and assumptions at the top of the output.
• Prefer batch mode for monthly production unless the user asks for one post.
• For Instagram, prefer 3 to 10 targeted hashtags over large generic hashtag blocks.
• Do not use this as the primary writer for LinkedIn, Threads, or X if the platform-specific skill is available.
