## What it does

This skill creates an attention funnel connecting short video clips to written assets such as articles and newsletters. Rather than chasing view counts alone, it focuses on qualified replies and readership. It scores candidate moments and filters out anything scoring below 8 out of 10.

Execution relies on strict verification steps. The assistant confirms clip licensing and maps source claims to evidence. If marketing context exists in `.agents/product-marketing.md` or `.claude/product-marketing.md`, it reads those details directly.

Without a clear rights route or a stable draft, the workflow halts immediately. It routes attention. The skill does not render video files or draft original long-form articles from scratch.

## Requirements
- Works with: LinkedIn

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-clip-to-guide -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/suede-clip-to-guide/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/suede-clip-to-guide/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-clip-to-guide -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/suede-clip-to-guide/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-clip-to-guide -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/suede-clip-to-guide/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-clip-to-guide -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/suede-clip-to-guide/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- bridge video clips to an owned guide or article
- verify third-party reuse rights and licensing routes
- filter candidate clip moments using an 8/10 threshold
- generate post copy paired with credit and subtitles

## Example prompts
- Take the excerpt from `clip.mp4` between 01:10 and 01:50 and bridge it to `handbook-draft.md`.
- Verify the reuse rights for this footage and draft an X post pointing to our newsletter.
- Scan `interview-transcript.txt` for moments scoring above 8 to direct traffic to our playbook.

# Suede AI Clip to Guide

Build one evidence-backed path from a video moment to a deeper written asset.
Treat the clip as the attention layer and the guide as the authority layer. Do
not assume the pattern performs; test the bridge against the account baseline.

## Default Success Blueprint

Use this as the recommended pattern when the rights, source, claim, platform,
and approval gates pass:

```text
Useful guide with one promise
        ↓
Self-contained video moment
        ↓
Rights route + 8/10 moment score
        ↓
Clip hook + source credit + subtitles
        ↓
Post explains why the moment matters
        ↓
One explicit bridge to the guide
        ↓
Max Effort/Fleet: dual certainty gate
        ↓
Exact-content approval
        ↓
Public readback + clip-to-guide measurement
        ↓
Keep, revise, or stop from the observed result
```

Prefer this blueprint when:

- a guide already answers the natural next question created by the clip;
- the goal is deeper understanding, bookmarks, qualified replies, leads, or
  authority rather than raw views alone;
- the selected moment passes the 8/10 score and claim-support threshold;
- the rights route and current platform sequence are recorded;
- the account can observe at least one clip metric and one guide-transition or
  campaign metric.

Do not use it when:

- the guide is thin, unrelated, unpublished without a stable draft, or has no
  specific promise;
- the clip needs missing context, distorts the source, or exists only because
  it is popular;
- third-party reuse is blocked or the accountable fair-use decision is absent;
- the platform cannot preserve the source, clip, and guide bridge in a verified
  sequence;
- the idea is complete in the short post and the guide would add no depth.

For a first test, build three distinct packages only when three moments pass all
