content-strategy

When the user wants to plan a content strategy, decide what content to create, or figure out what topics to cover. Also use when the user mentions "content strategy," "what should I write about," "content ideas," "blog strategy," "topic clusters," or "content planning." For writing individual pieces, see copywriting. For SEO-specific audits, see seo-audit.

Quality

Discovery

89%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is a well-crafted description with strong trigger terms and excellent completeness, including explicit 'when to use' guidance and boundary-setting with related skills. Its main weakness is that the 'what it does' portion could be more specific about concrete actions and deliverables beyond general planning language. The cross-references to copywriting and seo-audit are a notable strength for reducing conflict risk.

Suggestions

Add more specific concrete actions/deliverables such as 'build topic clusters, create editorial calendars, map content to buyer journey stages, prioritize content gaps' to improve specificity.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description names the domain (content strategy/planning) and mentions some actions like 'plan a content strategy,' 'decide what content to create,' and 'figure out what topics to cover,' but these are somewhat general and don't list multiple concrete, specific actions (e.g., 'build topic clusters,' 'create editorial calendars,' 'map content to funnel stages').

2 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (plan content strategy, decide what content to create, figure out topics) and 'when' (explicit trigger terms listed with 'Use when' equivalent phrasing). It also includes helpful boundary-setting by referencing related skills (copywriting, seo-audit).

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would say: 'content strategy,' 'what should I write about,' 'content ideas,' 'blog strategy,' 'topic clusters,' 'content planning.' These are highly natural phrases a user would actually use.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The description explicitly differentiates itself from related skills (copywriting for individual pieces, seo-audit for SEO-specific audits), creating clear boundaries. The trigger terms are specific to content strategy planning rather than generic content work.

Implementation

50%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a comprehensive content strategy guide with useful frameworks (searchable vs shareable, pillar structure, prioritization scoring) and good contextual awareness (checking for product-marketing-context.md). However, it's verbose for a skill file, lacks explicit workflow sequencing with validation checkpoints, and would benefit from splitting detailed reference material into separate files while keeping the SKILL.md as a concise overview with clear process steps.

Suggestions

Add an explicit numbered workflow (e.g., Step 1: Gather context → Step 2: Define pillars → Step 3: Ideate → Step 4: Prioritize → Step 5: Deliver) with validation checkpoints like 'Confirm pillars with user before proceeding to topic ideation'

Move detailed reference content (Content Types, Ideation Sources, Keyword Research by Buyer Stage) into separate linked files and keep only summaries in SKILL.md

Add a concrete example of a complete strategy output—even a brief one—showing what the final deliverable looks like for a sample business

Trim explanatory content Claude already knows (e.g., what case studies are, what Reddit/Quora are, general advice about storytelling) to reduce token usage by ~30%

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill is quite long (~300 lines) and includes some content Claude would already know (e.g., what searchable vs shareable content means, basic keyword modifier patterns, general advice like 'tell stories that make people feel something'). However, much of the content is structured frameworks and templates that add genuine value. Could be tightened by ~30%.

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides structured frameworks, scoring templates, and output formats which are useful, but lacks truly executable examples—no concrete code, no sample complete strategy output, and many sections are descriptive rather than prescriptive. The scoring template is a good start but the guidance is more 'here are categories to think about' than 'here's exactly what to do step by step.'

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

There's a logical flow from gathering context → identifying pillars → ideation → prioritization → output, but it's implicit rather than explicitly sequenced. No validation checkpoints exist (e.g., 'confirm pillars with user before proceeding to ideation'). The 'Before Planning' section is good but the overall process lacks explicit sequencing and feedback loops.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The skill has good section structure and references related skills at the bottom, but the body itself is monolithic—content types, ideation sources, prioritization frameworks, and keyword research could each be separate reference files. The inline content is extensive enough that it would benefit from being split into referenced documents.
