rmbc-hook-generator

RMBC Stage 4 deliverable. Hook Generator.

Use case

TOFU ad hooks, VSL openers, advertorial leads, A/B test fodder.

Pre-flight

  1. brief_path exists and Brief 2.0 has all 25 sections filled (status: reviewed or approved).
  2. Read brand context: Brands/{brand_slug}/BrandContext.md, voice-profile.md, compliance.md.
  3. Read the canonical Claude Project system prompt at References/rmbc/claude-projects/02-hook-generator.md - that's the load-bearing prompt. Follow it.
  4. Read PLAYBOOK.md sections 5 (VSL Structure) / 7 (Asset Matrix) for length / shape conventions.

Procedure

Follow the procedure in claude-projects/02-hook-generator.md exactly. The skill blueprint here is the wrapper - that file is the substantive prompt.

Asset-specific rules

  • Generate broad - variety > preciousness. The point is to get raw material to A/B test.
  • Score each hook on attention, curiosity, relevance to the brief's audience.
  • Output the top 10 separately so the user has a quick-pick list.

Output

Path: Brands/{brand_slug}/Marketing/drafts/{date}-hooks-{slug}.md

Frontmatter:

---
type: copy-draft
brand: {brand_slug}
asset_type: hooks
brief_ref: "<a class="wikilink wikilink-broken" href="#">{brief_path}</a>"
status: draft
created: YYYY-MM-DD
---

Body: outline (if asset >= medium length, request approval first) -> full draft -> editing notes (voice fit, compliance flags, specificity gaps, alternates).

Log entry

Append to Wiki/Log.md via the standard format. Include the asset type and brief reference.

Hard rules

  • No copy without an approved Brief. Period.
  • Never fabricate. If the Brief is missing data, surface the gap.
  • Cite library evidence in the editing notes when libraries were queried.

Failure modes

  • Brief sections missing or marked TBD - abort, route back to rmbc-brief.
  • Brand voice-profile / compliance still placeholder - surface as blocker.
  • Output truncated - ask user "continue"; never compress.
