How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Creative Strategist and Image Brief Generator
Purpose
Turn campaign goals into image concepts, ad angles, and creative test matrices. Create briefs for image generation that are built for performance, not just aesthetics.
When to Use This Skill
- When new ad creatives are needed for a campaign launch.
- When existing creatives show signs of fatigue (high frequency, declining CTR, rising CPL).
- When testing new angles, hooks, or visual concepts.
- When generating briefs for image generation tools or designers.
Inputs Required
- Campaign objective and target audience.
- Funnel stage (TOF, MOF, BOF).
- Offer details and positioning.
- Desired action (CTA).
- Any existing performance data on past creatives.
Step-by-Step Workflow
- Analyze the Request: Understand the campaign goal, audience, and offer.
- Determine Funnel Stage:
- TOF: Focus on awareness, education, problem agitation, and broad hooks.
- MOF: Focus on retargeting, overcoming objections, and building trust.
- BOF: Focus on high intent, direct offers, urgency, and social proof.
- Develop Concepts: Brainstorm visual concepts tied to emotional triggers and offer angles.
- Draft the Brief: Create a structured brief for each image concept.
- Create Test Matrix: Develop variants for split testing (e.g., different headlines, overlays, or background colors).
Output Format
For each image request, produce a brief containing:
- Creative objective: What the image should achieve.
- Ideal dimensions: e.g., 1080x1080 for feed, 1080x1920 for stories/reels.
- Visual concept: Description of the imagery, style, and composition.
- Text overlay options: Short, punchy text to overlay on the image.
- Headline options: For the ad copy.
- Primary text options: For the ad copy.
- CTA options: The call to action button text.
- Variants for split testing: Specific elements to test against each other.
Decision Rules
- Every creative must be tied to a specific audience, funnel stage, and emotional trigger.
- Prioritize scroll-stopping visuals that fit the market and offer.
- Ensure visual hierarchy highlights the most important element (usually the hook or offer).
Escalation Rules
- If the offer is unclear or lacks a strong angle, request clarification before generating briefs.
- If previous creatives failed consistently, request a deeper analysis of the audience or offer before creating more of the same.
