Reverse-engineer the hook from a viral Threads post or thread URL. Identifies which of the 10 canonical 2026 Threads formulas it uses (warm contrarian, data-point, build-in-public, quote-post, mini-list, relatable, listicle, story, curiosity-gap, how-I teardown), explains why it worked, and returns a blank template mapped to your topic with its primary goal (replies, reposts, likes, quotes). Use to learn from a post you admire. Not for writing your own (use threads-post-writer).
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Threads Hook Extractor
Paste a viral Threads post or thread URL. Get back: which hook formula it uses,
the exact structure, why it worked, and a blank template you can fill with your
own voice.
## When to use
- User finds a viral post or thread they want to study
- User wants to replicate a specific creator's pattern
- Before `threads-post-writer`, to seed a draft with a proven shape
## Input
A Threads post or thread URL (`threads.net` or `threads.com`, `/@handle/post/`).
For a thread, the URL of the first post is best.
## Output
- **Formula identified** (T1-T10 from `../../references/hook-formulas.md`) with a
confidence score
- **Container:** single post vs thread, and why that container fit the idea
- **Structural breakdown:**
- The hook line (and for a thread, how post 1 opens the loop)
- Body architecture (per-post roles for a thread)
- The close (what earns the repost or the reply)
- Reaction-triggering devices (numbers, named entities, the open loop, the warm
invite)
- **Primary goal** the original chased (replies / reposts / likes / quotes)
- **Why it worked** psychologically and algorithmically

How to install
mdr add sergebulaev/threads-skills/threads-hook-extractor@sha256:32209fedecea7079The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.8a7f435, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
