Show HN: Open-source skills that make any AI agent write native social posts

Inklate released an open-source collection of AI agent skills that teach agents to write platform-native social media content including posts, threads, carousels, and ad copy. The skills learn a user's strategy, voice, and format, and can be installed via CLI or as a plugin for agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini. The project aims to solve the problem of AI-generated content that lacks personal voice and platform optimization.

A collection of AI agent skills that learn your strategy, voice, and platform-native format — posts, threads, carousels, reels-ready scripts, ad copy, calendars. Your agent can already write. It can't write a LinkedIn post that sounds like you, sized for the feed, with a hook that stops the scroll. These skills teach it strategy, voice, and platform-native format — posts, threads, carousels, reels-ready scripts, ad copy, calendars — a full content system, not one-off prompts. No accounts, no APIs, works in every agent. npx skills add inklate/social-skills Tip:when an agent runs this non-interactively it may install only to .agents/skills/ , which Claude Code doesn't read — pass -a claude-code . Install a single skill with --skill cross-post . Or as an auto-updating Claude Code plugin: /plugin marketplace add inklate/social-skills /plugin install social-skills@inklate Then say "set up my social context" to begin — the social-context skill interviews you once and writes social-context.md , the file every other skill reads for your audience, platforms, pillars, and voice. | Skill | Category | What it does | |---|---|---| social-context | voice carousel cross-post hooks linkedin-post reply-writer repurpose x-thread ad-writer content-calendar post-check social-audit ┌────────────────┐ ┌───────┐ │ social-context │ + │ voice │ Foundation — run these first; └───────┬────────┘ └───┬───┘ they write social-context.md └───────┬────────┘ ┌───────────────────┼────────────────────┐ ▼ ▼ ▼ CREATE PLAN CHECK linkedin-post content-calendar post-check x-thread social-audit hooks ADS carousel ad-writer cross-post repurpose reply-writer Skills trigger on natural phrases — no commands to memorize: - "turn this blog post into posts for LinkedIn and X" → cross-post - "write a LinkedIn post about our launch" → linkedin-post - "give me better hooks for this draft" → hooks - "plan my next two weeks of content" → content-calendar - "will this work on Instagram?" → post-check - "write Facebook ad variants for this offer" → ad-writer - "help me reply to these comments" → reply-writer - "learn my voice from these posts" → voice These are standard Agent Skills https://agentskills.io — one folder per skill, each a SKILL.md — so any agent that reads the format can use them.

Fork it. These skills are meant to be customized — fork the repo and edit the voice rules, platform defaults, and quality bars to match your brand. These skills produce drafts and plans. Coming next: a companion skill pack that lets your agent actually publish, schedule, and measure across LinkedIn, X, Instagram, and Facebook. Watch this org to hear when it lands. New general skills, platform-constraint updates char limits change constantly , and voice/format improvements are all welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md /inklate/social-skills/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md . One hard rule: skills here stay vendor-neutral and deliver their complete promise with only the agent's own abilities. MIT LICENSE /inklate/social-skills/blob/main/LICENSE .
