Suede Instagram Growth
Turn one Instagram account into an evidence-backed content and conversion system. Every recommendation must resolve to the account's current content, audience, offer, voice, production capacity, or a clearly labeled experiment. Do not produce generic "post consistently" advice and do not pretend public view counts reveal private saves, shares, retention, leads, or sales.
Red Flags — Correct These First
- "Lock this context forever." Keep an account brief for the current workspace or run, attach source dates, and refresh mutable facts. Never claim permanent memory.
- "Browse the last 30 posts automatically." Use an authenticated Instagram surface, user export, authorized API, or user-supplied links. Instagram's terms prohibit automated collection without permission; never substitute unauthorized scraping.
- "This went viral, so it converts." Views are attention. Conversion needs follows, profile actions, DMs, leads, attributed checkout, or sales evidence.
- "Use 15 hashtags and the best posting time." Hashtag count, timing, format, and cadence are account-level tests. Verify current platform limits and the account's Insights before prescribing them.
- "Run the daily workflow" means publish. It means refresh evidence and prepare approval-ready candidates. Publishing is a separate authorized step.
Operating Contract
1. Read existing context before asking
Read .agents/product-marketing.md, .claude/product-marketing.md, or the
legacy product-marketing-context.md when present. Also read any account brief,
content ledger, offer sheet, brand guide, approved voice samples, and recent
performance export supplied by the user.
Build or refresh this Account Evidence Pack:
Handle and visible identity:
Account type: personal | creator | business | unknown
Objective: awareness | qualified followers | leads | sales | community
Primary audience:
Offer, price, and conversion path:
Voice samples and source dates:
Faceless preference and available media:
Current cadence and production capacity:
Timezone and follower-active windows:
Recent-post evidence source and coverage:
Attribution source: none | Insights | links/UTMs | CRM | checkout | mixed
Claims or topics requiring review:
Last refreshed:
Unknowns that affect confidence:
Start from accessible evidence. Ask one compact batch of questions only when a missing answer would materially change the work. Never ask for information already present in current files, the authenticated account, or supplied data.
2. Label every fact by evidence class
Use these labels in audits and recommendations:
- Observed-public: visible post, caption, date, format, views, likes, or comments.
- Observed-owned: authenticated Insights, export, DM log, link analytics, CRM, or checkout evidence the user is authorized to access.
- Computed: a formula calculated from observed values; show the formula and denominator.
- Inferred: a hypothesis to test. Never word it as an account fact.
- Unknown: the needed measure is unavailable. State what would resolve it.
3. Use the halt contract for real blockers
Use this exact format when authorized evidence, asset rights, identity, or external-action approval blocks the requested result:
HALT — <one-line blocker>
Why it blocks: <specific missing authority or evidence>
Resolve with:
1. <option>
2. <option>
3. <option, when useful>
Waiting for: <the exact item or approval>
Continue with safe drafts or worksheets only when they remain useful and do not imply the blocker was resolved.
First Action: Audit the Account
When the user supplies a handle or says to analyze the account:
- Verify identity and access. Confirm the visible handle and whether the evidence is public-only or authenticated. Do not connect a third-party tool, request a password, or install an integration as a shortcut.
- Collect the recent cohort. Default to the most recent 30 feed posts and Reels; use all available posts if fewer than 30 exist. Exclude pinned age, boosted distribution, collaborations, or giveaways only by tagging them, never silently.
- Collect comparable fields. Use the schema in
references/account-audit.md. Record
nfor every metric cohort; never compare a private metric against a public-only post as if both are complete. - Code the content. Assign one topic, pillar, hook family, format, structure, CTA, audience problem, offer proximity, and production burden to each post.
- Normalize within the account. Compare like formats and similar distribution conditions. Use medians and quartiles when the cohort supports them; show raw counts when it does not.
- Map business value. Classify each post as
converts,assists,attention-only, orunknownusing the rules below. - Return the playbook. Name repeatable patterns, dead weight, evidence gaps, and the next 3–5 controlled tests. Each recommendation must cite the post IDs or cohort behind it.
Conversion classification
- Converts: has an attributable primary action: qualified follow, DM start, lead, checkout, or sale. Record the attribution source.
- Assists: produces measurable saves, shares, profile visits, site taps, or qualified comments without a reliably attributed primary action.
- Attention-only: sits in the cohort's top reach/view quartile while its primary-action rate is at or below the comparable-format median.
- Unknown: downstream measures are absent or attribution is not reliable.
Never promote unknown to attention-only or converts by intuition.
Choose the Requested Mode
| User language | Execute |
|---|---|
| "analyze my account" | 30-post audit and conversion map |
| "make a calendar" | ranked 30- or 60-day test calendar |
| "create a Reel" | hook set, timed script, shot plan, caption, CTA, test card |
| "make a carousel" | selected narrative, exact slide copy, visual direction, caption |
| "repurpose this" | source atomization and a platform-native Instagram bundle |
| "analyze competitors" | lawful comparable-account pattern and whitespace audit |
| "run daily workflow" | evidence refresh and approval-ready candidate package |
If the request contains several modes, run them in dependency order: audit or context refresh, strategy, asset creation, QA, approval package.
Strategy and Planning
Content pillars
Derive 3–5 starting pillars from the intersection of:
- audience problem or desire;
- account expertise or credible access;
- observed response pattern;
- offer or strategic objective;
- repeatable production source.
For each pillar, return:
Pillar:
Audience job:
Proof the account can own it:
Observed supporting posts:
Primary format hypothesis:
Business bridge:
Stop condition:
Do not force equal shares. Rank pillar allocation from recent evidence and the next learning goal.
Calendar
Build calendars as experiments, not filler. Every row must contain:
Date/timezone | format | pillar | audience problem | hook | payoff | CTA
Evidence source | one variable being tested | primary metric | asset owner
Production status | approval status | readback field
Use the lowest cadence that can preserve evidence, voice, rights, and review quality. If the user requests daily content, daily candidate generation is allowed; do not claim daily publishing is optimal without account evidence.
Competitor and trend research
Use public or authorized evidence only. Select 3–8 comparable accounts by audience, offer, maturity, geography, and format; record why each qualifies. Collect additional posts only while another bounded batch changes the leading patterns. Public competitor research cannot see saves, shares, retention, follows-per-post, DMs, or sales unless the account discloses them.
For trends, label each item rising, active, saturated, or unverified
only when the current source supports that label. Record source, observed date,
rights status, audience fit, and shelf life. A trend is optional; account fit
and source rights outrank novelty.
Ideation and Selection
Generate 30–50 ideas only when requested or when the calendar horizon requires that volume. Build them from the account's actual patterns:
- mistakes and avoidable losses;
- myths with proof-backed corrections;
- specific frameworks and checklists;
- unpopular opinions the account can defend;
- before/after demonstrations;
- audience objections and buying triggers;
- founder or operator evidence;
- product proof and customer outcomes;
- timely trends with a lawful, original treatment.
Score each idea from 0–20:
| Criterion | 0–4 rule |
|---|---|
| Audience recognition | 4 = target viewer identifies their problem in one read |
| Specific payoff | 4 = one concrete promised outcome, with no inflated claim |
| Evidence strength | 4 = owned proof or demonstrable source supports the idea |
| Voice fit | 4 = matches at least two supplied voice markers |
| Business bridge | 4 = natural next step connects to the stated objective |
Rank by total score, but show every component. Do not label an idea "viral." Call it a test candidate and state why.
Content Creation Contracts
Read references/content-production.md for the full format templates.
Reels
Return:
- 20 hook candidates when the user asks for a hook factory; otherwise 5.
- A selected hook with the selection score and evidence.
- A second-by-second script: visual, voiceover, on-screen text, edit beat, and the retention job of each beat.
- A faceless shot plan by default when requested: screen recording, product proof, licensed B-roll, kinetic type, hands/process, diagrams, or owned media.
- A caption, one primary CTA, alt-text/accessibility notes, and a keyword plus hashtag test—not a fixed hashtag quota.
- A rights and claim checklist.
- One-variable test card and post-publication readback fields.
Choose duration from the idea and the account's comparable retention. If no evidence exists, label 15–45 seconds as a starting test range, not an optimum.
Carousels
Pick the narrative before writing: problem-proof, mistake-fix,
framework, before-after, myth-evidence, or demo-walkthrough. Set slide
count from the number of necessary beats; 8–10 is a starting range only when the
idea genuinely has that many beats.
The canonical slide-by-slide framework library — per-slide copy slots and a
production checklist — is owned by suede-social, in its carousel-frameworks
reference. Read it whenever slide-level copy slots are needed rather than
inventing a competing structure here.
Return exact text and visual direction for each slide. Slide 1 must identify the audience tension or payoff. Every middle slide does one job. The last slide summarizes the earned payoff and gives one next action.
Captions and voiceover
- First line must stand alone before truncation.
- Use the account's sentence length, vocabulary, humor, punctuation, and taboo list from real voice samples.
- Use
pause,emphasis,beat, and pronunciation markers for AI voiceover; never add synthetic emotion that contradicts the brand. - Use only relevant hashtags whose current availability and meaning were checked. Do not manufacture "big/medium/niche" volume tiers without data.
- Run final copy through
suede-deslopwhen it is available.
Daily Workflow
Read references/daily-loop.md, then execute:
- Refresh account evidence, active offer, content queue, and yesterday's readback.
- Review authorized trend and audience-signal sources.
- Score candidate ideas and select 1–3 that cover distinct audience jobs.
- Produce complete Reel, carousel, Story, or static packages.
- Check claims, identity, asset rights, disclosures, accessibility, and CTA.
- Return the exact approval packet; do not publish yet.
- If exact content and visible identity are approved, publish only through a current authorized surface.
- Read back the live permalink, rendered media, text, tags, CTA destination, and account identity. Log the post ID and measurement checkpoint.
Completion is proven by the package checklist for draft-only work, or by live permalink readback for authorized publishing. A prepared composer is not a published post.
Measurement and Iteration
Read references/measurement.md.
Use the campaign objective to select one primary metric and 2–4 diagnostics. When denominators exist, calculate rates explicitly:
save rate = saves / accounts reached
share rate = shares / accounts reached
comment rate = comments / accounts reached
follow rate = follows attributed to post / accounts reached
profile-action rate = profile actions / accounts reached
lead rate = attributed leads / accounts reached
sales rate = attributed sales / accounts reached
Do not combine these into a universal engagement score. Compare the current post to its format-specific trailing median and the named experiment cohort. Change one meaningful variable per test whenever practical.
Suede-Owned Account Mode
When the target account belongs to Suede Labs AI, Jason Colapietro, or a named Suede product:
- Anchor public positioning in creator ownership infrastructure, programmable IP, rights, provenance, registry-backed media, royalty routing, licensing readiness, and agent commerce. Do not reduce Suede to a generic AI music app.
- Build proof-led lanes from live product demonstrations, creator education, founder/operator evidence, rights workflows, provenance records, and agent commerce—not unsupported futurism.
- Never claim registration proves legal title, prevents copying, clears all rights, guarantees royalties, or completes a transaction unless current evidence proves that exact state.
- Use only
docs/assets/suede-ai-logo-transparent.pngas the Suede S mark (SHA-25683a7ee0317e4debe2e7b076c20ba067feb76a587f9e829dc6310ae4be4b44dfa). Never redraw, trace, approximate, typeset, recolor, distort, or generate a replacement. If the file is missing or the checksum differs, omit the mark and use the halt contract. - Confirm rights for every song, clip, voice, likeness, screenshot, testimonial, partner logo, and third-party post before including it.
Boundaries
- Do not publish, schedule, comment, follow, like, repost, message, or modify an Instagram account without explicit approval of the exact content and visible identity.
- Do not scrape Instagram, bypass access controls, evade rate limits, or use a consumer password in an automation.
- Do not invent private Insights, audience sentiment, competitor conversion, trends, testimonials, results, scarcity, partnerships, rights, or product claims.
- Do not generate harassment, deceptive engagement bait, fake controversy, fake social proof, engagement pods, purchased followers, or undisclosed synthetic endorsements.
- Do not use copyrighted music, footage, likenesses, logos, or reposted creator content without a verified lawful basis and required attribution or disclosure.
- Do not treat drafts, scheduled items, composer previews, or API container IDs as published posts. Require live readback.
Routing
- Use
suede-socialfor cross-platform organic strategy and repurposing beyond Instagram. - Use
suede-videofor rendering, editing, shot production, and multi-cut video pipelines after the Instagram content contract is approved. - Use
suede-imagefor production of image assets andsuede-designfor the visual system. - Use
suede-copyfor broader conversion copy andsuede-deslopfor the final anti-slop pass. - Use
suede-clip-to-guidewhen a clip or long-form moment must bridge to an Article, newsletter, or guide instead of ending at the feed. - Use
suede-analyticsfor UTMs, event instrumentation, attribution repair, and verified reporting pipelines. - Use
suede-adsandsuede-ad-creativefor paid Meta campaigns. - From
suede-social: route Instagram-specific account audits, Reels, carousels, Stories, and daily Instagram loops here.

# Instagram Account Audit Use this schema to audit the recent account cohort without blurring visible engagement, private Insights, and business conversion. ## Source order 1. Authenticated Instagram Insights or a user export. 2. Authorized Instagram API data for a professional account. 3. User-supplied post URLs, screenshots, content ledger, link analytics, CRM, and checkout data. 4. Public profile evidence, limited to metrics and content actually visible. Instagram's Terms of Use prohibit automated collection without express permission. If no authorized source is available, provide the worksheet and ask for an export; do not scrape. ## Post ledger Create one row per post: ```text Post ID / permalink: Published at / timezone: Format: Reel | carousel | static | collaboration | other Organic / boosted / unknown: Duration or slide count: Topic and pillar: Audience problem or desire: Hook text and hook family: Structure: Proof used: CTA and destination: Offer proximity: none | assist | direct Visual mode: face | faceless | product | UGC | mixed Production burden: low | medium | high, with minutes when known Views / plays: Accounts reached: Watch time / average watch time: Likes / comments / saves / shares: Follows attributed to post: Profile visits / profile actions / site taps: DM starts / keyword replies: Attributed leads / sales / revenue: Metric source and captured date: Evidence class: Notes and confounders: ``` ## Cohort controls - Separate Reels, carousels, and static posts before comparing medians. - Tag boosted posts, collaborations, giveaways, launches, major news, and creator reposts as distribution confounders. - Compare rates only when their denominators are available and consistent. - Use median rather than mean when a small number of outliers dominate. - Show sample size beside every pattern: `n=<count>`. - Do not name a repeatable pattern from one post. Two posts are a clue; three or more comparable posts can support a starting hypothesis. ## Audit output ```text Coverage: <collected>/<target> posts Access level: public | authenticated | export | mixed Date range: Metrics unavailable: What repeatedly earns attention: - Pattern -> post IDs -> cohort result What repeatedly earns qualified action: - Pattern -> post IDs -> cohort result -> attribution source Views without downstream proof: - Pattern -> post IDs -> missing or weak action Audience response: - recurring questions, objections, vocabulary, and requests Conversion map: - converts | assists | attention-only | unknown Next controlled tests: 1. hypothesis / variable / primary metric / stop rule ``` ## Official checkpoint links Refresh these before encoding current platform behavior: - Reel Insights: https://www.facebook.com/help/instagram/202865988324236 - Recommendation eligibility: https://www.facebook.com/help/instagram/653964212890722 - Instagram Terms of Use: https://www.facebook.com/help/instagram/581066165581870 - Instagram API collection: https://www.postman.com/meta/instagram/collection/6yqw8pt/instagram-api -

# Instagram Content Production Use these templates after the Account Evidence Pack and objective are known. ## Hook selection Score every candidate 0–4 on each item: 1. Target viewer recognition. 2. Specific payoff. 3. Proof support. 4. Honest curiosity gap. 5. Voice fit. Reject a hook when any promised result lacks proof, the hook could apply to almost any niche, or it requires fake fear, outrage, or scarcity. ## Reel package ```text Objective: Audience moment: Pillar: Format and duration hypothesis: Selected hook / score: Timeline 0:00–0:02 | visual | voiceover | on-screen text | retention job 0:02–0:05 | visual | voiceover | on-screen text | retention job ...continue at every meaningful edit or idea beat... final beat | payoff | one CTA Faceless shot list: 1. Owned or licensed source / framing / duration / edit note Caption: First line: Body: CTA: Keyword and hashtag test: Alt text / caption accessibility: Music, voice, footage, and likeness rights: Claims requiring proof: Experiment variable: Primary metric: Readback checkpoint: ``` ### Useful faceless modes - product or website screen recording; - hands-on process or studio detail; - owned before/after evidence; - licensed B-roll with original narration; - animated diagrams and kinetic type; - document, data, or workflow walkthrough; - customer result with documented permission; - original stills edited into a paced sequence. Do not use anonymous stock footage that conflicts with the claim or audience. ## Carousel package ```text Narrative: Objective: Audience tension: Slide count and why every slide is needed: Slide 1 — exact hook / visual anchor Slide 2 — problem or stakes / evidence Slide 3 — idea, step, or proof / visual ... Final slide — earned summary / one CTA Caption: Alt text: Source and claim notes: Experiment variable: Primary metric: ``` ### Slide QA - Cover identifies audience or payoff in one read. - Each slide makes one claim or performs one step. - Every statistic, quote, result, and comparison has a source. - Text fits at mobile size without requiring a zoom gesture. - Visual hierarchy, page number, and progress signals are consistent. - Final CTA follows naturally from the delivered value. ## Stories package Use Stories for a specific job: research, proof, objection handling, launch support, community reply, or conversion. Do not fill a daily quota. ```text Frame | visual | exact text | sticker/interaction | purpose | next frame ``` When using polls, questions, links, or product stickers, verify that the feature is available on the authenticated account and that its response path is staffed. ## Voiceover markup ```text [pace: conversational] [emphasis: exact word] [pause: 0.3s] [beat] [pronounce: word = phonetic guide] ``` Use punctuation for comprehension first. Never make the voice sound urgent, intimate, or emotional in a way the account's real samples do not support. -
daily-loop.md 2.8 KB
# Instagram Daily Loop The daily loop produces decisions and approval-ready assets. It does not imply automatic publishing or autonomous engagement. ## Inputs - refreshed Account Evidence Pack; - current content ledger and queue; - prior post readback and due measurement checkpoints; - active offer and conversion destination; - audience comments, questions, DMs, search terms, and support themes the user is authorized to access; - current official Instagram guidance and account status; - lawful trend sources and cleared media library. ## Run 1. **Read yesterday.** Record post status, early measures, comments needing human review, and any broken link or render issue. Do not draw a performance conclusion before the named checkpoint. 2. **Refresh signals.** Capture only relevant audience questions, account insights, product events, owned proof, and current trends. Date every signal. 3. **Protect the queue.** Remove stale claims, expired links, duplicated angles, rights-unclear media, and posts whose context materially changed. 4. **Select candidates.** Score ideas on audience recognition, payoff, evidence, voice fit, and business bridge. Select 1–3 candidates with different jobs. 5. **Produce packages.** Use the Reel, carousel, Story, or static contract. 6. **QA.** Verify exact claims, source rights, identity, accessibility, CTA, destination, disclosure, and brand voice. 7. **Request exact approval.** Show the final copy, media list, visible identity, destination, timing hypothesis, and any collaborator or tag. 8. **Publish only if authorized.** Use the authenticated native surface or an approved API/tool permitted for the account. 9. **Read back.** Confirm permalink, identity, rendered media, caption, tags, collaborator state, CTA destination, and public availability. 10. **Log.** Record post ID, publish time, experiment variable, primary metric, measurement checkpoint, and permalink. ## Approval packet ```text Account / visible identity: Format: Final media and rights source: Final caption: Tags / collaborators / location: CTA and destination: Publish time hypothesis: Experiment variable: Primary metric and checkpoint: Approval status: draft | exact-content approved | published and read back ``` ## Failure handling - **No authenticated access:** return drafts and the audit worksheet. - **Metrics missing:** label performance class `unknown` and request Insights or attribution evidence. - **Composer differs from plan:** stop before publish and show the rendered difference. - **Publish succeeds but readback fails:** report `publish state unknown`; do not retry blindly. - **Rights or disclosure unclear:** use the halt contract and omit the asset. - **Comments or DMs contain threats, medical/legal/financial claims, private data, or account-security issues:** escalate for human review; do not reply. -

# Instagram Measurement and Experiments Measurement exists to decide what to repeat, change, or stop. Do not optimize a proxy that is disconnected from the account objective. ## Objective map | Objective | Primary measure candidates | Diagnostics | |---|---|---| | Awareness | accounts reached in target cohort | view distribution, non-follower reach, profile visits | | Qualified growth | follows attributed to post / reach | profile visits, audience fit, unfollows when available | | Education | saves / reach | carousel completion, average watch time, qualified questions | | Distribution | shares / reach | sends, reposts, new-audience reach | | Conversation | qualified comments or DMs / reach | objection themes, response burden | | Leads | attributed leads / reach | profile actions, site taps, DM keyword starts | | Sales | attributed sales or revenue / reach | checkout starts, lead quality, offer and margin | The table supplies candidates, not mandatory metrics. Use only measures the current account exposes and the user is authorized to access. ## Experiment card ```text Question: Comparable baseline: format / date range / n / median Hypothesis: One variable changed: Constants held: Primary metric: Diagnostics: Guardrail: Minimum review checkpoint: Decision rule: repeat | iterate | stop Confounders: ``` Set the review checkpoint from the account's normal reach curve and publishing cadence. Do not use a universal 24-hour, seven-day, or 10,000-view threshold. ## Readback table ```text Post ID | format | pillar | hook family | test variable | published at Reach | views | average watch time | saves | shares | comments | follows Profile actions | site taps | DMs | leads | sales | source captured at Comparable baseline | result | next decision ``` ## Diagnosis rules - High views plus low average watch time: inspect whether starts or replays inflate views; test the opening and message-format fit. - Adequate retention plus low follows: inspect audience fit, profile promise, series continuity, and follow CTA. - Saves without site actions: treat the post as an assist unless education is the primary objective. - Shares with negative or off-target comments: inspect who is sharing and why; distribution is not automatically desirable. - Site taps without leads: route to `suede-analytics` and `suede-site-alchemy`; do not blame the post before checking attribution and landing-page friction. - Leads without sales: inspect lead quality, offer, pricing, follow-up, and attribution before changing content. ## Reporting Always separate: 1. observed values; 2. computed rates and formulas; 3. comparable baseline; 4. experiment result; 5. inference and confidence; 6. the next smallest test.

Status: production. Ships in the `suede-skills` plugin (the full pack) at release 0.19.0; loads as a Claude Code / Codex agent skill from this directory's [SKILL.md](./SKILL.md). ## Owner Jason Colapietro, Suede Labs AI (<https://github.com/JasonColapietro>). Security contact: `info@suedeai.ai` per [SECURITY.md](../../SECURITY.md). ## License / Terms of Use MIT ([LICENSE](../../LICENSE)). The pack's combined license expression is `MIT AND BSD-3-Clause`; this skill bundles no third-party licensed material of its own. ## Use Case Target users: developers and creators running the skill inside a Claude Code or Codex CLI session. Use when the user names Instagram, IG, Reels, Stories, asks to analyze recent posts, grow a handle, run a daily workflow, create or repurpose Instagram content, or distinguish views from follows, leads, and sales. Out of scope — multi-platform organic strategy (use suede-social), full video rendering or editing (use suede-video), paid Meta campaigns (use suede-ads or suede-ad-creative), analytics instrumentation (use suede-analytics), or any publish, comment, follow, like, or DM action without exact approval. ## Deployment Geography Global. The skill is a prompt-and-script package that runs locally inside the invoking agent session; it pins no region-specific service of its own. ## Requirements / Dependencies - A Claude Code or Codex CLI session with the `suede-skills` plugin installed (install options: <https://skills.suedeai.ai/>). - Bundled files loaded relative to this directory: `agents/` (1 file), `references/` (4 files). - Credentials: none are bundled or required by the skill files. Any tool or API credentials come from the host session; never paste credentials into skill files, prompts, or outputs. ## Known Risks and Mitigations - Risk: an agent treats a quality gate as autonomous authority. Mitigation: every gate in the pack is advisory — it changes what is reported, never what the user decided; only extreme-risk findings (data loss, credential exposure, legal/rights violations, payment mistakes, irreversible public damage) pause for the user's explicit choice. - Risk: a skill instruction is used to act outside its mandate. Mitigation: the hard limits in the skill body's "Boundaries" section, quoted below. From "Boundaries": - Do not publish, schedule, comment, follow, like, repost, message, or modify an Instagram account without explicit approval of the exact content and visible identity. - Do not scrape Instagram, bypass access controls, evade rate limits, or use a consumer password in an automation. - Do not invent private Insights, audience sentiment, competitor conversion, trends, testimonials, results, scarcity, partnerships, rights, or product claims. - Do not generate harassment, deceptive engagement bait, fake controversy, fake social proof, engagement pods, purchased followers, or undisclosed synthetic endorsements. - Do not use copyrighted music, footage, likenesses, logos, or reposted creator content without a verified lawful basis and required attribution or disclosure. - Do not treat drafts, scheduled items, composer previews, or API container IDs as published posts. Require live readback. ## References - Skill source: [`skills/suede-instagram-growth/SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md) - Rendered reference page: <https://skills.suedeai.ai/skills/suede-instagram-growth.html> - Security policy and reviewed scanner exceptions: [SECURITY.md](../../SECURITY.md) and [`.plugin-scanner.toml`](../../.plugin-scanner.toml) at the repo root ## Skill Output Markdown analysis and recommendations returned in the agent's response. The skill publishes, posts, and sends nothing without the user's explicit authorization; delivery decisions stay with the user. ## Skill Version 0.19.0 — the pack is single-versioned, so every skill releases together; see [VERSION](../../VERSION) and [CITATION.cff](../../CITATION.cff) for the release identifier this card describes. ## Ethical Considerations - The skill produces recommendations for a human decision-maker. Publishing, sending, payment, and rights decisions stay with the user. - Its gates require verifiable claims and honest reporting; do not use the skill to fabricate claims, evidence, metrics, or attribution. - Report suspected misuse or a security concern privately per [SECURITY.md](../../SECURITY.md); do not open a public issue for it. -

--- name: suede-instagram-growth description: "Suede-owned Instagram growth operating system for account-specific audits, Reels, carousels, Stories, conversion mapping, calendars, and daily candidate-production loops. Use when the user names Instagram, IG, Reels, Stories, asks to analyze recent posts, grow a handle, run a daily workflow, create or repurpose Instagram content, or distinguish views from follows, leads, and sales. NOT FOR: multi-platform organic strategy (use suede-social), full video rendering or editing (use suede-video), paid Meta campaigns (use suede-ads or suede-ad-creative), analytics instrumentation (use suede-analytics), or any publish, comment, follow, like, or DM action without exact approval." metadata: version: 1.0.0 --- # Suede Instagram Growth Turn one Instagram account into an evidence-backed content and conversion system. Every recommendation must resolve to the account's current content, audience, offer, voice, production capacity, or a clearly labeled experiment. Do not produce generic "post consistently" advice and do not pretend public view counts reveal private saves, shares, retention, leads, or sales. ## Red Flags — Correct These First - **"Lock this context forever."** Keep an account brief for the current workspace or run, attach source dates, and refresh mutable facts. Never claim permanent memory. - **"Browse the last 30 posts automatically."** Use an authenticated Instagram surface, user export, authorized API, or user-supplied links. Instagram's terms prohibit automated collection without permission; never substitute unauthorized scraping. - **"This went viral, so it converts."** Views are attention. Conversion needs follows, profile actions, DMs, leads, attributed checkout, or sales evidence. - **"Use 15 hashtags and the best posting time."** Hashtag count, timing, format, and cadence are account-level tests. Verify current platform limits and the account's Insights before prescribing them. - **"Run the daily workflow" means publish.** It means refresh evidence and prepare approval-ready candidates. Publishing is a separate authorized step. ## Operating Contract ### 1. Read existing context before asking Read `.agents/product-marketing.md`, `.claude/product-marketing.md`, or the legacy `product-marketing-context.md` when present. Also read any account brief, content ledger, offer sheet, brand guide, approved voice samples, and recent performance export supplied by the user. Build or refresh this **Account Evidence Pack**: ```text Handle and visible identity: Account type: personal | creator | business | unknown Objective: awareness | qualified followers | leads | sales | community Primary audience: Offer, price, and conversion path: Voice samples and source dates: Faceless preference and available media: Current cadence and production capacity: Timezone and follower-active windows: Recent-post evidence source and coverage: Attribution source: none | Insights | links/UTMs | CRM | checkout | mixed Claims or topics requiring review: Last refreshed: Unknowns that affect confidence: ``` Start from accessible evidence. Ask one compact batch of questions only when a missing answer would materially change the work. Never ask for information already present in current files, the authenticated account, or supplied data. ### 2. Label every fact by evidence class Use these labels in audits and recommendations: - **Observed-public:** visible post, caption, date, format, views, likes, or comments. - **Observed-owned:** authenticated Insights, export, DM log, link analytics, CRM, or checkout evidence the user is authorized to access. - **Computed:** a formula calculated from observed values; show the formula and denominator. - **Inferred:** a hypothesis to test. Never word it as an account fact. - **Unknown:** the needed measure is unavailable. State what would resolve it. ### 3. Use the halt contract for real blockers Use this exact format when authorized evidence, asset rights, identity, or external-action approval blocks the requested result: ```text HALT — <one-line blocker> Why it blocks: <specific missing authority or evidence> Resolve with: 1. <option> 2. <option> 3. <option, when useful> Waiting for: <the exact item or approval> ``` Continue with safe drafts or worksheets only when they remain useful and do not imply the blocker was resolved. ## First Action: Audit the Account When the user supplies a handle or says to analyze the account: 1. **Verify identity and access.** Confirm the visible handle and whether the evidence is public-only or authenticated. Do not connect a third-party tool, request a password, or install an integration as a shortcut. 2. **Collect the recent cohort.** Default to the most recent 30 feed posts and Reels; use all available posts if fewer than 30 exist. Exclude pinned age, boosted distribution, collaborations, or giveaways only by tagging them, never silently. 3. **Collect comparable fields.** Use the schema in [references/account-audit.md](references/account-audit.md). Record `n` for every metric cohort; never compare a private metric against a public-only post as if both are complete. 4. **Code the content.** Assign one topic, pillar, hook family, format, structure, CTA, audience problem, offer proximity, and production burden to each post. 5. **Normalize within the account.** Compare like formats and similar distribution conditions. Use medians and quartiles when the cohort supports them; show raw counts when it does not. 6. **Map business value.** Classify each post as `converts`, `assists`, `attention-only`, or `unknown` using the rules below. 7. **Return the playbook.** Name repeatable patterns, dead weight, evidence gaps, and the next 3–5 controlled tests. Each recommendation must cite the post IDs or cohort behind it. ### Conversion classification - **Converts:** has an attributable primary action: qualified follow, DM start, lead, checkout, or sale. Record the attribution source. - **Assists:** produces measurable saves, shares, profile visits, site taps, or qualified comments without a reliably attributed primary action. - **Attention-only:** sits in the cohort's top reach/view quartile while its primary-action rate is at or below the comparable-format median. - **Unknown:** downstream measures are absent or attribution is not reliable. Never promote `unknown` to `attention-only` or `converts` by intuition. ## Choose the Requested Mode | User language | Execute | |---|---| | "analyze my account" | 30-post audit and conversion map | | "make a calendar" | ranked 30- or 60-day test calendar | | "create a Reel" | hook set, timed script, shot plan, caption, CTA, test card | | "make a carousel" | selected narrative, exact slide copy, visual direction, caption | | "repurpose this" | source atomization and a platform-native Instagram bundle | | "analyze competitors" | lawful comparable-account pattern and whitespace audit | | "run daily workflow" | evidence refresh and approval-ready candidate package | If the request contains several modes, run them in dependency order: audit or context refresh, strategy, asset creation, QA, approval package. ## Strategy and Planning ### Content pillars Derive 3–5 starting pillars from the intersection of: 1. audience problem or desire; 2. account expertise or credible access; 3. observed response pattern; 4. offer or strategic objective; 5. repeatable production source. For each pillar, return: ```text Pillar: Audience job: Proof the account can own it: Observed supporting posts: Primary format hypothesis: Business bridge: Stop condition: ``` Do not force equal shares. Rank pillar allocation from recent evidence and the next learning goal. ### Calendar Build calendars as experiments, not filler. Every row must contain: ```text Date/timezone | format | pillar | audience problem | hook | payoff | CTA Evidence source | one variable being tested | primary metric | asset owner Production status | approval status | readback field ``` Use the lowest cadence that can preserve evidence, voice, rights, and review quality. If the user requests daily content, daily candidate generation is allowed; do not claim daily publishing is optimal without account evidence. ### Competitor and trend research Use public or authorized evidence only. Select 3–8 comparable accounts by audience, offer, maturity, geography, and format; record why each qualifies. Collect additional posts only while another bounded batch changes the leading patterns. Public competitor research cannot see saves, shares, retention, follows-per-post, DMs, or sales unless the account discloses them. For trends, label each item `rising`, `active`, `saturated`, or `unverified` only when the current source supports that label. Record source, observed date, rights status, audience fit, and shelf life. A trend is optional; account fit and source rights outrank novelty. ## Ideation and Selection Generate 30–50 ideas only when requested or when the calendar horizon requires that volume. Build them from the account's actual patterns: - mistakes and avoidable losses; - myths with proof-backed corrections; - specific frameworks and checklists; - unpopular opinions the account can defend; - before/after demonstrations; - audience objections and buying triggers; - founder or operator evidence; - product proof and customer outcomes; - timely trends with a lawful, original treatment. Score each idea from 0–20: | Criterion | 0–4 rule | |---|---| | Audience recognition | 4 = target viewer identifies their problem in one read | | Specific payoff | 4 = one concrete promised outcome, with no inflated claim | | Evidence strength | 4 = owned proof or demonstrable source supports the idea | | Voice fit | 4 = matches at least two supplied voice markers | | Business bridge | 4 = natural next step connects to the stated objective | Rank by total score, but show every component. Do not label an idea "viral." Call it a test candidate and state why. ## Content Creation Contracts Read [references/content-production.md](references/content-production.md) for the full format templates. ### Reels Return: 1. 20 hook candidates when the user asks for a hook factory; otherwise 5. 2. A selected hook with the selection score and evidence. 3. A second-by-second script: visual, voiceover, on-screen text, edit beat, and the retention job of each beat. 4. A faceless shot plan by default when requested: screen recording, product proof, licensed B-roll, kinetic type, hands/process, diagrams, or owned media. 5. A caption, one primary CTA, alt-text/accessibility notes, and a keyword plus hashtag test—not a fixed hashtag quota. 6. A rights and claim checklist. 7. One-variable test card and post-publication readback fields. Choose duration from the idea and the account's comparable retention. If no evidence exists, label 15–45 seconds as a starting test range, not an optimum. ### Carousels Pick the narrative before writing: `problem-proof`, `mistake-fix`, `framework`, `before-after`, `myth-evidence`, or `demo-walkthrough`. Set slide count from the number of necessary beats; 8–10 is a starting range only when the idea genuinely has that many beats. The canonical slide-by-slide framework library — per-slide copy slots and a production checklist — is owned by `suede-social`, in its carousel-frameworks reference. Read it whenever slide-level copy slots are needed rather than inventing a competing structure here. Return exact text and visual direction for each slide. Slide 1 must identify the audience tension or payoff. Every middle slide does one job. The last slide summarizes the earned payoff and gives one next action. ### Captions and voiceover - First line must stand alone before truncation. - Use the account's sentence length, vocabulary, humor, punctuation, and taboo list from real voice samples. - Use `pause`, `emphasis`, `beat`, and pronunciation markers for AI voiceover; never add synthetic emotion that contradicts the brand. - Use only relevant hashtags whose current availability and meaning were checked. Do not manufacture "big/medium/niche" volume tiers without data. - Run final copy through `suede-deslop` when it is available. ## Daily Workflow Read [references/daily-loop.md](references/daily-loop.md), then execute: 1. Refresh account evidence, active offer, content queue, and yesterday's readback. 2. Review authorized trend and audience-signal sources. 3. Score candidate ideas and select 1–3 that cover distinct audience jobs. 4. Produce complete Reel, carousel, Story, or static packages. 5. Check claims, identity, asset rights, disclosures, accessibility, and CTA. 6. Return the exact approval packet; do not publish yet. 7. If exact content and visible identity are approved, publish only through a current authorized surface. 8. Read back the live permalink, rendered media, text, tags, CTA destination, and account identity. Log the post ID and measurement checkpoint. Completion is proven by the package checklist for draft-only work, or by live permalink readback for authorized publishing. A prepared composer is not a published post. ## Measurement and Iteration Read [references/measurement.md](references/measurement.md). Use the campaign objective to select one primary metric and 2–4 diagnostics. When denominators exist, calculate rates explicitly: ```text save rate = saves / accounts reached share rate = shares / accounts reached comment rate = comments / accounts reached follow rate = follows attributed to post / accounts reached profile-action rate = profile actions / accounts reached lead rate = attributed leads / accounts reached sales rate = attributed sales / accounts reached ``` Do not combine these into a universal engagement score. Compare the current post to its format-specific trailing median and the named experiment cohort. Change one meaningful variable per test whenever practical. ## Suede-Owned Account Mode When the target account belongs to Suede Labs AI, Jason Colapietro, or a named Suede product: - Anchor public positioning in creator ownership infrastructure, programmable IP, rights, provenance, registry-backed media, royalty routing, licensing readiness, and agent commerce. Do not reduce Suede to a generic AI music app. - Build proof-led lanes from live product demonstrations, creator education, founder/operator evidence, rights workflows, provenance records, and agent commerce—not unsupported futurism. - Never claim registration proves legal title, prevents copying, clears all rights, guarantees royalties, or completes a transaction unless current evidence proves that exact state. - Use only `docs/assets/suede-ai-logo-transparent.png` as the Suede S mark (SHA-256 `83a7ee0317e4debe2e7b076c20ba067feb76a587f9e829dc6310ae4be4b44dfa`). Never redraw, trace, approximate, typeset, recolor, distort, or generate a replacement. If the file is missing or the checksum differs, omit the mark and use the halt contract. - Confirm rights for every song, clip, voice, likeness, screenshot, testimonial, partner logo, and third-party post before including it. ## Boundaries - Do not publish, schedule, comment, follow, like, repost, message, or modify an Instagram account without explicit approval of the exact content and visible identity. - Do not scrape Instagram, bypass access controls, evade rate limits, or use a consumer password in an automation. - Do not invent private Insights, audience sentiment, competitor conversion, trends, testimonials, results, scarcity, partnerships, rights, or product claims. - Do not generate harassment, deceptive engagement bait, fake controversy, fake social proof, engagement pods, purchased followers, or undisclosed synthetic endorsements. - Do not use copyrighted music, footage, likenesses, logos, or reposted creator content without a verified lawful basis and required attribution or disclosure. - Do not treat drafts, scheduled items, composer previews, or API container IDs as published posts. Require live readback. ## Routing - Use `suede-social` for cross-platform organic strategy and repurposing beyond Instagram. - Use `suede-video` for rendering, editing, shot production, and multi-cut video pipelines after the Instagram content contract is approved. - Use `suede-image` for production of image assets and `suede-design` for the visual system. - Use `suede-copy` for broader conversion copy and `suede-deslop` for the final anti-slop pass. - Use `suede-clip-to-guide` when a clip or long-form moment must bridge to an Article, newsletter, or guide instead of ending at the feed. - Use `suede-analytics` for UTMs, event instrumentation, attribution repair, and verified reporting pipelines. - Use `suede-ads` and `suede-ad-creative` for paid Meta campaigns. - From `suede-social`: route Instagram-specific account audits, Reels, carousels, Stories, and daily Instagram loops here.
