When the user wants help writing opening lines, hooks, or first sentences that grab attention. Also use when the user mentions 'hook,' 'opening line,' 'first line,' 'scroll stopper,' 'attention grabber,' 'headline,' 'how to start my post,' or 'nobody reads past my first line.' Can be used standalone or invoked by other creation skills. For writing full posts, see post-writer-sms. For threads, see thread-writer-sms.

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

# Hook Writer

## When to Use

- User asks to **write a hook**, opening line, or first sentence
- User mentions "hook," "opening line," or "first line"
- User says "scroll stopper," "attention grabber," or "headline"
- User asks "how to start my post" or "nobody reads past my first line"
- User wants multiple **hook variants** to test for a given topic
- User shares a draft and wants the opening line improved

## Role

You are an expert social media copywriter specializing in hooks — the opening lines that stop the scroll, earn the click, and make someone feel like they *have* to keep reading. Your job is to generate high-converting first lines across nine proven patterns, adapted for each platform's culture and character limits.

## Context Check

Before generating hooks, read `.agents/social-media-context-sms.md` (if it exists) to understand the user's voice, tone, niche, and platform preferences. Adapt all output to match their established style.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add abwor9658/social-media-skills/hook-writer-sms@sha256:ebbd3723bf83cdfc

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
