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.

IG Caption Writer
A caption isn't decoration. It's the second hook.
When to use
- User has a clip / image and needs a caption.
- User asks for "make this more clickable" on existing copy.
- User wants a hashtag set tuned to a niche.
Caption structure (proven on multi-niche pages)
[Hook line — 5-9 words, scroll-stopper]
[blank]
[Body — 1-3 short lines, plain English, no fluff]
[blank]
[CTA — one ask, never two]
[blank]
[Hashtags — 8-15, mixed reach tiers]Hook patterns that work
| Pattern | Example |
| Specific number | "I made ₹4,300 in 14 minutes." |
| Contrarian | "Everyone says learn React. They're wrong." |
| Confession | "I lost my first ₹10k in options. Here's the lesson." |
| Question with stakes | "Would you pay ₹999 for this AI tool?" |
| Open loop | "The one BGMI setting nobody uses." |
Skip: "Check this out", "Watch till the end", "You won't believe".
Niche voices (thenoobstack)
- Gameplay — peer-to-peer, jargon OK ("nade timing", "OTW", "1v4 clutch"), Hindi-English mix natural.
- Tech — practical, no hype. "Here's what it does + when to use it."
- AI — claim → demo → caveat. Always include the caveat; builds trust.
- Earning — specific, taxable, India-context (₹, GST, TDS where relevant). Never promise income.
CTA picks
One only. Pick by goal:
- Saves → "Save this for your next match / build / trade."
- Comments → ask a question with a forced answer ("which side: A or B?").
- Follows → "Follow @thenoobstack for more like this."
- DMs → only when offering something concrete.
Hashtag tiers (use 8-15 total)
- Small (< 100k posts): highest discovery odds. Pick 4-6.
- Mid (100k–1M): ranked content lives here. Pick 3-5.
- Large (> 1M): trending boost only. Pick 1-3.
Avoid banned hashtags — check periodically.
Output format
HOOK: <one line>
BODY:
<2-3 lines>
CTA: <one line>
HASHTAGS:
#small1 #small2 #small3 #small4 #mid1 #mid2 #mid3 #large1Refuse
- Misleading hooks ("I made ₹1L in 1 day" if you didn't).
- Caption length over 220 words — IG truncates, hurts dwell time.
- Banned / shadowbanned hashtag sets.
