When the user wants to write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy for any page — including homepage, landing pages, pricing pages, feature pages, about pages, or product pages. Also use when the user says "write copy for," "improve this copy," "rewrite this page," "marketing copy," "headline help," or "CTA copy." For email copy, see email-sequence. For popup copy, see popup-cro.

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 strong skill description with excellent trigger term coverage and clear boundary-setting via cross-references to related skills. The main weakness is that the specific capabilities could be more concrete — listing actions like 'generate headlines, write CTAs, structure page sections' would strengthen specificity. Overall, it would perform well in a multi-skill selection scenario.
Suggestions
Add more specific concrete actions beyond 'write, rewrite, or improve' — e.g., 'generate headlines, craft CTAs, structure page copy, write value propositions' to boost specificity.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description names the domain (marketing copy) and lists page types (homepage, landing pages, pricing pages, etc.), but doesn't list specific concrete actions beyond 'write, rewrite, or improve.' It lacks detail on what specific outputs or techniques are involved (e.g., headline generation, CTA optimization, A/B variants). | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (write, rewrite, or improve marketing copy for various page types) and 'when' (explicit trigger phrases and a 'Use when' equivalent at the start). Also includes helpful boundary-setting by pointing to related skills for email and popup copy. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would say: 'write copy for,' 'improve this copy,' 'rewrite this page,' 'marketing copy,' 'headline help,' 'CTA copy,' plus specific page types like 'homepage,' 'landing pages,' 'pricing pages,' 'feature pages,' 'about pages,' 'product pages.' | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | The description carves out a clear niche (page-level marketing copy) and explicitly delineates boundaries by directing email copy to 'email-sequence' and popup copy to 'popup-cro,' significantly reducing conflict risk with adjacent skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a solid, well-structured copywriting skill that provides actionable guidance with concrete examples, clear workflow, and good output format specifications. Its main weakness is moderate verbosity — some sections explain concepts Claude already knows (basic writing principles, benefits vs features) and could be trimmed or moved to reference files. The references to external files are well-placed but cannot be verified since no bundle was provided.
Suggestions
Trim the 'Copywriting Principles' and 'Writing Style Rules' sections significantly — Claude already knows active vs passive voice, simple vs complex words, etc. Keep only the project-specific constraints (e.g., 'no exclamation points', 'never fabricate statistics').
Move the 'Best Practices' section (rhetorical questions, analogies, humor) to a reference file since these are general copywriting techniques Claude already understands.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is reasonably well-organized but includes some content Claude already knows (e.g., explaining what benefits vs features means, basic writing style rules like 'active over passive'). The copywriting principles and writing style rules sections contain advice that an expert LLM would already internalize. However, the page-specific guidance and CTA formulas add genuine value. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides concrete headline formulas, specific CTA examples (with good/bad comparisons), a clear page structure framework with a table, and explicit output format requirements. The before/after examples (e.g., Slack copy) and CTA formulas are directly usable and copy-paste ready. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The workflow is clearly sequenced: gather context (with specific questions organized by category) → apply principles → follow page structure framework → output in specified format with annotations and alternatives. The 'Before Writing' section establishes a clear starting checkpoint, and the output format section provides a clear end state. For a copywriting task (non-destructive), this level of workflow clarity is appropriate. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill references two external files (references/copy-frameworks.md and references/natural-transitions.md) which is good progressive disclosure, but no bundle files were provided to verify these exist. The main file itself is quite long (~200 lines) and some sections like 'Writing Style Rules' and 'Copywriting Principles' could potentially be moved to reference files. The related skills section at the end is well-organized. | 2 / 3 |
