Ad library teardownUse when the user wants to analyze active ads from Meta/Facebook, Google, or LinkedIn ad libraries; tear down a competitor's messaging; extract hooks, offers, CTAs, video transcripts, landing page claims, and test ideas from public ads.Pricing Page (High‑Conversion) — Web Design SkillTell us about your plans and prices, and get back a ready-to-build pricing page: plan layout, what each tier includes, buttons, and answers to common buyer questions.Copywriting hooksWrites opening hooks and post titles for long-form articles in EN or FR — blog posts, Substack/Medium/dev.to, LinkedIn long-form, newsletters, essays. Trigger whenever the user asks for a hook, opening, lede, intro, first sentence/paragraph, opener, accroche, attaque, phrase d'accroche, or première phrase — including punching up a flat intro or draft opening — or for a post title, titre d'article, or headline. Do NOT trigger for social posts (LinkedIn feed, Twitter/X, TikTok, Bluesky), READMEs, taglines, email subjects, ad copy, landing-page headlines, press releases, SEO meta, or body rewrites. Do NOT use for end-of-article CTAs — use samber/cc-skills@copywriting-cta instead.Ecom landing pagesUse when someone wants landing page ideas, concepts, or angles for a store: give me landing page concepts", "LP ideas", "landing page angles", a campaign or ad landing page, pages for a new audience/segment, a seasonal/event/promo page, or a geo/local page. Also use when a chosen concept gets picked and needs building out into an actual page (section-by-section blueprint), or when auditing an existing landing page against best practice. The core insight: one product becomes dozens of pages by varying the ANGLE, not the product. Not for full-site information architecture, product detail pages, collection pages, or blog/SEO content (a landing page has ONE goal, no site chrome). Use an SEO/content skill. Not for the ad or email creative itself, though message match with the page matters.
