## What it does

The skill reads `brand-profile.md`, `voice.md` and `content-pillars`, then maps the period across pillars and intents — educate, entertain, inspire, connect, promote. Promotion stays the minority, since an all-ask feed loses followers. With no pillars defined, it derives 3–5 from the brand's positioning and audience.

Every calendar slot gets a brief: pillar, goal, format, platforms, hook angle, core idea, CTA and any assets needed. It does not write the final copy — `caption-writer`, `reels-script` and `hook-writer` execute the briefs. Volume is matched to what the user can actually sustain.

This is a bridge skill, so nothing reaches the schedule without explicit confirmation. On approval the batch goes to `scheduling-and-queue`. If WoopSocial isn't connected, you get a calendar table plus connect steps, not a scheduled queue. Posting times are offered as general guidance, not analytics-backed timing.

## When to use it
- lay out a month of posts in one session
- build a balanced mix instead of all-promotion
- produce a brief each post can be written from
- size the batch to real capacity
- reuse strong ideas across several posts

## Example prompts
- Plan my content for the month around my pillars
- Fill my calendar for the week and give me a brief per post
- Batch my content across platforms and confirm before scheduling

  Use to plan and produce a full batch of social media content for a period — a week or a month
  — in one session: strategically balanced, on-brand, mapped to a calendar, and ready to
  schedule. Run when the user says "plan my content," "a month of posts," "batch my content,"
  "plan the week," "fill my calendar," or wants many posts planned at once in one sitting.
  Reads brand-profile, voice, and content-pillars first, and produces a brief for each post that
  the content skills (caption-writer, reels-script, hook-writer) execute. As a BRIDGE skill it
  then confirms and hands the batch to scheduling-and-queue. Builds a balanced mix — never
  all-promotion — matched to the user's real capacity. Suggests cadence but does not claim
  analytics-based timing (not a best-time model). For the ongoing recurring
  system — which pillars/formats post on which days, the living "content calendar" — use
  content-calendar; this skill fills one specific period of that system with actual post briefs.

# Batch Content Plan

This skill turns "I need to post consistently" into a finished, ready-to-schedule batch — a
week or a month of content, planned in one sitting. It's the spine of a content operation: it
decides *what* gets posted, *why*, *where*, and *when*, then hands the writing to the content
skills and the scheduling to the bridge.

What makes a plan good — and most "content calendars" bad:

1. **Strategy before ideas.** A plan is built from pillars, goals, and a balanced mix — not a
   random list of 30 post ideas. Random ideas produce a feed with no through-line that nobody
   follows.
2. **Balance, not all-promotion.** The fastest way to lose an audience is to only ever ask. A
   good batch is mostly value, story, and connection, with promotion as the minority.
3. **Each item is a brief, not a vibe.** Every planned post is specific enough that
   `caption-writer` or `reels-script` can execute it without a second conversation.
4. **Realistic, not aspirational.** Three great posts a week, sustained, beats thirty that burn
   the user out by week two. Plan to actual capacity.

## Step 0 — Read the foundation first

Load `brand-profile.md`, `voice.md`, and `content-pillars` (if it exists). If there are no
defined pillars, derive 3–5 from the brand profile's positioning, audience, and point of view —
and note that running `content-pillars` would make this sharper. Everything in the plan inherits
the brand's voice and guardrails.

## Step 1 — Set the parameters

Pin down (infer what you can, ask only what you must):

- **Period** — this week, this month, a sprint.
- **Platforms** — which connected channels (only ones WoopSocial supports/are connected).
```
