Generate scored A/B variants of a headline, opening line, hook or CTA, with a test plan. "give me headline options to test".

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

# Content Variant Generator — A/B Test Optimization

Generate multiple scored variations of any content element — headlines, hooks, CTAs, introductions, or conclusions — ranked by composite quality score and aligned to your optimization goal.

## When to Use

Use `/contentforge:cf-variants` when you need:
- **A/B test candidates** for headlines, subject lines, or CTAs
- **Higher-performing alternatives** to existing content elements
- **Data-informed decisions** about which hook or intro to deploy
- **Systematic variation** rather than guessing what works better
- **Brand-consistent alternatives** that maintain voice while testing angles

**For full content production**, use [`/contentforge:create-content`](../../commands/create-content.md) instead.
**For refreshing entire pieces**, use [`/contentforge:content-refresh`](../content-refresh/SKILL.md) instead.

## What This Command Does

Takes a single content element and generates N variations (3-10), scores each across 6 quality dimensions, ranks by composite score weighted toward your optimization goal, and presents the top 3 with detailed reasoning and A/B test setup guidance.

**Process Flow:**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add indranilbanerjee/contentforge/cf-variants@sha256:0173e11140b088a4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.d7af708, 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.
