name: content-repurposer
description: Turns one finished piece into channel-ready versions (LinkedIn post, X thread, newsletter section, short video script) and runs a script to check each against its channel limits. Use when the user says "repurpose this," "turn this into a LinkedIn post," "make an X thread from this," "cut this for video," "adapt this for other platforms," "one piece, every channel," or when the content-engine runs Step 5. Does not interview, draft, or edit the source piece.

# Content Repurposer

One job: reshape one finished piece for each channel. Same idea, native format.

Each version must work alone. Someone who only sees the X thread should get the full point.

## STEP 1 (REQUIRED): Load inputs

1. Read `edited.md`. If it hasn't passed the editor, stop and run content-editor first.
2. Read `hooks.md` and take the recommended hook. Use the runner-up for the second channel so you test both.
3. Read `learnings.md` if present. Channel rules there override this skill.
4. Ask which channels the user wants if they didn't say. Default: all four below.

## STEP 2 (REQUIRED): Write each version to its spec

| Channel | Length | Structure | Close |
|---|---|---|---|
| LinkedIn | 150 to 300 words | Hook, short lines, 1 to 2 sentences per paragraph, one list max | One question or challenge. Max 3 hashtags at the end |
| X thread | 5 to 8 posts, each under 280 characters | Post 1 stands alone and holds the hook. One idea per post | Last post: the takeaway plus a link placeholder |
| Newsletter section | 300 to 500 words | Hook, the story, the proof, one takeaway | One action the reader can take this week |
| Video script (45 sec) | 100 to 130 words | Hook spoken in the first 3 seconds. One point only | One clear call to action |

### Example: one fact across channels

**Source fact:** "Our 4 SDRs cut account research from 45 minutes to 8 with one Claude skill."

- **LinkedIn line:** "45 minutes per account. Now 8.\nSame 4 SDRs. One Claude skill."
- **X post:** "Our SDRs spent 45 min researching each account. One Claude skill got it to 8. Here's the skill:"
- **Video open (spoken):** "My SDRs got 37 minutes back on every single account. Here's how."

## STEP 3 (REQUIRED): Run the length check

Write all versions to `repurposed.md` using these exact headings, then run the script:

```markdown
## LinkedIn
## X Thread
1/ ...
2/ ...
## Newsletter
## Video Script
```

```bash
python scripts/check_lengths.py repurposed.md
```

Fix every FAIL and re-run until PASS.

## Output: `repurposed.md`

All versions under the headings above, ready to copy and paste. Then one line to the user: "4 versions ready. LinkedIn uses hook #1, X uses hook #3."

## Edge cases

- **Source is short** (under 250 words): skip the newsletter version and say why.
- **User wants a channel not listed** (carousel, email, YouTube description): ask for one example they like, match its structure, and add a rule to `learnings.md` after the retro.
- **A fact needs more context on one channel:** add context, never new facts.
