Input

Ask the user to provide:

1. Source content - URL, file path, or paste the content directly
2. Target platforms - Which outputs they want (default: all)
3. Audience context - Who is this for? (optional but helpful)

If the user just pastes content, proceed immediately. Don't over-ask.

Atomization Process

Step 1: Extract Core Elements

From the source content, identify:

• Central thesis - The one big idea (1 sentence)
• Key insights - 3-7 supporting points
• Stories/examples - Concrete illustrations
• Data/stats - Quotable numbers
• Contrarian angles - What goes against common belief
• Actionable takeaways - What reader can DO

Step 2: Platform Mapping

Element	Best Formats	Buyer Stage
Central thesis	LinkedIn post, Video hook, Audiogram	Awareness
Key insights	Thread, Carousel, Podcast segment	Awareness/Consideration
Stories	TikTok, Video script, Discussion prompt	Awareness
Data/stats	Infographic, Pinterest, Quote graphic	Consideration
Contrarian take	Tweet, Threads, Reddit post	Awareness
Actionable takeaways	Email, Challenge, Quiz	Consideration/Decision
How-to steps	YouTube Shorts, Blog spin-off, Carousel	Decision
Social proof	Case study excerpt, Quote graphic	Decision

Step 2b: Buyer Journey Mapping

Map each asset to the customer journey:

AWARENESS (Top of Funnel)
├── Twitter/X Thread - hook with big idea
├── TikTok/Reels - pattern interrupt
├── Audiogram - quotable insight
├── Discussion prompts - start conversations
└── Threads post - authentic take

CONSIDERATION (Middle of Funnel)
├── LinkedIn Carousel - educational depth
├── Podcast outline - deep dive
├── Infographic - visual summary
├── Blog spin-offs - SEO capture
├── Quiz/Poll - engagement + education
└── YouTube Shorts - how-to snippets

DECISION (Bottom of Funnel)
├── Email excerpt - direct CTA
├── Pinterest pin - save for later
├── SEO snippets - capture search intent
├── Challenge prompt - activation
└── Quote graphics - social proof

Strategy: Release awareness content first, then consideration, then decision. Don't blast all at once.

Step 3: Generate Assets

Create each format using the templates above. Customize hooks for each platform's audience.

Quick Mode vs. Deep Mode

Quick Mode (Default)

Just atomize the content using the templates. Fast, reliable, good enough.

Deep Mode

When user asks for "optimized" or "researched" versions:

1. Use WebSearch to find top-performing content in their niche
2. Analyze current platform algorithm priorities
3. Customize hooks based on what's working NOW
4. Add platform-specific hashtag/timing recommendations

Platform Algorithm Notes (2025-2026)

Platform	Algorithm Priority	What to Optimize
Twitter/X	Replies, quotes, bookmarks	Controversial hooks, question endings
LinkedIn	Dwell time, comments	First line hook, carousel saves
Instagram	Saves, shares, watch time	Reels completion, carousel swipes
TikTok	Completion rate, shares	First 2 seconds, save prompts
YouTube Shorts	Watch time, subscribe clicks	Hook + payoff loop
Pinterest	Saves, click-through	Keyword-rich descriptions
Threads	Replies, reposts	Authentic voice, no hard CTAs
Podcast	Completion, reviews	Strong intro, clear segments

Universal 2025-2026 Trends:

• "Follow for more" CTAs penalized across platforms
• Saves/bookmarks weighted higher than likes
• Completion rate matters more than views
• Native content outperforms cross-posted
• Carousels/threads outperform single posts

Quality Checklist

Before delivering, verify:

Format Quality

• Each format uses platform-native conventions
• Hooks are DIFFERENT across platforms (not copy-paste)
• Video scripts are speakable (read aloud test)
• Carousels work standalone (no context needed)
• Audio scripts work with sound OFF (text overlays noted)

Content Quality

• No AI-slop phrases ("In today's landscape", "Let's dive in", "Game-changer")
• Each piece has ONE clear takeaway
• CTAs are platform-appropriate (soft for TikTok/Threads, direct for email)
• Hooks create genuine curiosity, not clickbait

Strategic Quality

• Assets mapped to buyer journey stages
• Staggered release calendar makes sense
• High-value formats prioritized (not just easy ones)
• Internal linking strategy for blog spin-offs

What This Skill Does NOT Do

• Design visuals - Provides copy/outlines for infographics, not actual graphics
• Schedule posts - Provides content and timing guidance, not automation
• Write the original - Atomizes existing content only (use content-writer for original)
• Record audio/video - Provides scripts, not production
• Post to platforms - Provides content, user must publish
