The mistake most people make is describing their competitors' hooks from memory. Instead, save the top-performing reels in your niche and hand Claude the links, then let it pull each one's transcript, hook, and structure for you. Paste ten or fifteen at once and ask for the pattern, not a single takeaway.
Act as a viral content strategist for my niche (describe your niche + audience in one line).
Here are 10-15 top-performing reels in my space. For each one, break down: the exact hook (first line), the format/structure, the topic, and why it worked. Then zoom out and give me the patterns across all of them: which hook types, formats, and topics my niche is rewarding right now, ranked by how often they show up in the winners.
This is the step that keeps you original. You are not copying anyone's video, you are taking the structure that works and mapping it onto your own topics and point of view.
Here are the top 3 winning patterns you just found, and here are 10 topics I actually know and care about (list them).
For each of my topics, map it onto the strongest matching pattern and give me a fresh angle: a scroll-stopping hook in that structure, plus a one-line promise of what the viewer learns. Keep it in my world, don't reuse anyone else's example. Flag any topic that doesn't fit a proven pattern so I can drop it.
Generic AI scripts sound generic. Fix that once by building a voice skill from your own best posts, then reuse it forever. Use skill-creator, Anthropic's official skill for making skills, or just have Claude write the skill by hand.
Here are 5 of my best-performing captions/scripts. Study my voice: sentence length, how casual I am, the words and phrases I actually use, how I open and close.
Use skill-creator to build a skill called "myvoice" that rewrites or drafts any script so it sounds like me, not default AI. It should keep the meaning and structure I give it and only change the voice. Save it so I can reuse it.
Then generate the batch, running your new voice skill over the angles from step two:
Using /myvoice and the angles we mapped in step two, write me 30 short-form scripts.
Each one: a scroll-stopping hook as the first line, a tight body that teaches or shows one real thing, and a clear call to action. Keep them under ~60 seconds of spoken words. Number them and label each with its topic and the pattern it's built on.
