hook-writerlisted

Takes a LinkedIn post draft and generates four scored hook variants for the opening one or two lines before the see-more cutoff, each built on a distinct psychological framework, with a recommendation and the reason it wins. Use when a post's opening feels flat, or when testing hooks before publishing. Boundary: LinkedIn post openings only. `cold-email` does the equivalent job for cold email subject lines, and `cold-email` writes the opening line of a cold email body.

# The Hook Lab Generate four hook variants for a LinkedIn post and recommend the strongest one. The hook is the first 1-2 lines before LinkedIn's "see more" cutoff. If it does not stop the scroll, the rest of the post does not matter. > **Copy standard.** Read `references/outbound-copy-standards.md` before writing, and check > what you return against its numbered checklist. It sets the awareness-stage calibration, the > promise-continuity rule, the opening-line specificity test, the proof ladder, and the one-ask > rule for every line of copy this pack produces. Its checks are additional to this skill's own. ## Before you write **Run the input list below before you write anything. If one of those inputs is missing, ask for it and stop. Do not return a draft with a warning on it.** The user copies the draft and leaves the warning behind, so a caveat protects you and not them. **Ask at most THREE questions. Hard cap.** Before anything becomes a question, get it yourself: read `.agents/product-context.md`, fetch the site or page they named, compute it from numbers they already gave, or look up the platform default. Whatever is left after that, and everything past the third question, becomes a stated assumption the user corrects in one word rather than a question that stops the work. Number them, and say what you will assume if one goes unanswered. Check `.agents/product-context.md` first so you never ask for something already recorded there. **Write it the way you would say
