cartoon-ad — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
This skill designs and audits animated ads through visual arguments, metaphors, and supported proof. Use it when a production-ready script is needed.
npx skills add PostPlusAI/postplus-skills --skill cartoon-ad -a claude-codeWhat cartoon-ad does
In create mode, the skill turns a product, service, or other offer brief into a visual grammar plan and shot script. It maps the audience pressure, offer interaction, visible outcome, mechanism, and available proof. Each shot gets timing, composition, camera movement, action, sound, text, and a clear purpose.
In review mode, the skill first runs $media-analysis, then records when the offer appears and audits the ad with Strong / Partial / Weak / Missing findings and timecodes. It also checks causal gaps and classifies the material as complete_ad, excerpt, or incomplete.
The create flow ends with production locks, checks, and one approval question. Production does not begin before approval, so the locked direction needs a separate confirmation.
What it helps with
- turn an ad brief into an animated shot script
- show how the offer changes the user’s situation
- map each shot’s action, framing, sound, and purpose
- audit an existing ad with timecoded findings
- set boundaries for claims used in the script
Example prompts for the agent
- Design an animated ad direction for this product brief and return a shot-by-shot script.
- Review this animated ad, locate the offer’s first appearance, and flag causal gaps with timecodes.
- Build a visual grammar plan for this service using only the available proof and claim limits.
