caption

Skill5 starsChanged 17 days agoMITView on GitHub

Write an Instagram caption that earns the tap on "more": a hook in the first 125 characters, the keyword CTA above the fold, searchable keywords, up to 5 sized hashtags, and a pinned first comment, linted by a local checker that shows exactly what the feed displays. Use when the creator asks for "a caption", "caption this", "write the description", "hashtags for this", "fix my caption", or has a finished reel, carousel or photo and needs the words.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈2

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Read: the creator profile, ../instagram-playbook/algorithm.md, ../instagram-playbook/safety.md.

    line 22
  2. Distinctive:

    Collab / paid?: Add the disclosure (#ad, or the Paid partnership label) and remind the creator once.

    line 43
  3. Distinctive:

    Write a pinned first comment too.

    line 47

≈ “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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

caption

Instagram shows about 125 characters before "... more", and most people never tap. A caption that fails, fails there. This skill writes for that window first.

Read: the creator profile, ../instagram-playbook/algorithm.md, ../instagram-playbook/safety.md. Commands use python3. On Windows, use python.

Structure

LINE 1     the hook. Concrete, under ~110 characters. Pick up where the reel's hook left off, don't repeat it.
LINE 2     the keyword CTA if it's a LEAD post: Comment "PLAN" and I'll DM you the planner 📩
           (above the fold, or 90% of people never see it)
BODY       the value: the steps, the story, the context the reel only teased. Short lines. White space.
CLOSE      one ask, matched to the goal (save / send / comment KEYWORD / follow)
TAGS       up to 5 hashtags, sized to the account

Rules

  • The keyword goes in the first 2 lines. Repeat it once at the end for people who read everything.
  • Searchable words early. Instagram search is keyword-led. Use the words a person would type ("reel editing template", "home baking business"), not just clever ones.
  • Hashtags: 5 at most (Instagram's current cap). Mix 1-2 niche tags (under 100K posts), 2 mid (100K-1M), and 1 broad. A small account can't rank on #love.
  • No links. Links in captions don't click. Deliver links by DM (comment-to-dm).
  • One ask. Two CTAs is no CTA.
  • Emoji with intent. 0-3 that do a job (📩 next to the DM promise), not sprinkled on every line.
  • Collab / paid? Add the disclosure (#ad, or the Paid partnership label) and remind the creator once.

The first comment

Write a pinned first comment too. It's a second shot at the fold and seeds the thread:

  • LEAD posts: "Comment PLAN below 👇 sending it to everyone today". That makes the first comment model the action.
  • Discussion posts: a genuine question that's easy to answer.

Lint it

python3 ../polish/scripts/polish.py caption.txt --keywords "reel editing,editing template"

It prints the exact feed window as a box, then checks length, the first line, a concrete hook, the hashtag cap, links, the keyword's position, one ask, and AI slop. Fix every FAIL. Fix the WARNs unless there's a reason not to.

Output

Give 2 caption options (different first lines), the first comment, and the lint result for the recommended one. End with:

Next: set up the funnel → comment-to-dm keyword "PLAN" (only if it isn't live yet)
