npx skills add vyralcontent/content-skills --skill <skill-name>Who it's for
Look at this free, open Agent Skills set when you need hooks, scripts, or carousels for short video. Official wording: it is for short-form video creators, sponsored by Vyral Content. The repository title names TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
The umbrella skill is meant to brainstorm and write high-retention short-form video and carousels: several different hooks from proven patterns, scripts shaped into hook, escalation, payoff, CTA, rewritten for the platform you will post on, and an honest read on where a draft will lose viewers. It fits people who already have a topic and want to sharpen the opening and structure first. The body says it can plug into Claude, Cursor, and anything else that supports the SKILL.md standard; do not read that as support for only the first two.

The official install command is:
npx skills add vyralcontent/content-skills --skill <skill-name>
Preconditions: you are writing short video or a carousel, and you already have a real skill-name from this same page. The current body does not write any concrete name, so on the first try do not replace the angle brackets with an invented name, and do not name a directory that does not appear.
Do a read-only check first. Ask the agent to restate what the umbrella skill does and where these methods come from. The success signal is that the agent names several hooks, the four script beats hook / escalation / payoff / CTA, rewriting by platform, and an honest read on draft drop-off; and that it can mention We scraped and studied more than 200,000 viral TikToks, Reels, and YouTube Shorts. If the agent invents a skill name and demands an immediate install, stop.
Use cases
Case 1: From hooks to a full short script. Give the agent a topic meant for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts, and ask it first for several diverse hook options, then to shape hook, escalation, payoff, CTA, and adapts to the platform you're posting on. What you can check is that all four beats are present and the hooks differ from each other. The page gives no skill-folder name or prompt template; do not invent them.
Case 2: Judge where a draft fails to keep people. The umbrella skill gives an honest read on where a draft loses people. Hand over an existing spoken draft and ask only for drop-off points, not a full rewrite. This is a read-only diagnosis. The success signal is a judgement about retention, not vague praise. The basis is a study of 200,000 viral pieces; do not expand that number into an unpublished platform algorithm.
Usage limits
<skill-name> is the page’s original wording, not an invitation to invent names. Do not install a skill name that is not written.
This is writing guidance. The body has no publish interface to TikTok / Reels / Shorts; do not treat it as an auto-poster.
Clients follow the original wording and include other tools that support the SKILL.md standard; SKILL.md here is a format name, not a local copy directory.
No secrets, uninstall command, or output path. Do not invent unwritten ads, captions, or cover workflows.
