Marketing skills for Claude Code

For high-performing marketers going AI-native (or trying to). Type a slash command, or describe the problem in your own words. The matching skill asks a couple of questions, reads your files only when you say yes, and does the work.

Who it's for

I built these for my own marketing work and I use them every week. They help you do the work faster and better, but you still do the work (that's kind of the point).

Marketers who want better work, faster

You know your audience and your product, and there's more on your plate than hours in the week. The skills take the slow parts like research and reporting, so your time goes to the thinking and the writing.

The curious, who want to use AI the smart way

You've seen what happens when AI writes everything (just open LinkedIn) and you want the other version, where AI is a tool and a helper and the thinking stays yours. Every skill is a plain text file, so you can open it and see how it works.

Not for you if you want AI to churn out your content or replace your marketers. That's not the way, and I wrote about why in Why is marketing so damn hard right now? and I love AI, I hate AI.

The shelf

One folder per skill, each with its own SKILL.md. The folder name is the slash command. Every skill is self-contained — take the whole library or copy one folder.

It's a live list, curated by me. Every few weeks I add new skills and rework or drop old ones. Last change: .

/writing-assistantSparring partner and draft-writer for posts, essays and newsletters. Four modes, voice profiles, an anti-AI-writing guard built in.
/copy-deslopChecks copy against the live Wikipedia list of AI-writing tells and fixes what it finds.
/copy-longformPage-by-page copyedit for long documents, with a tracked edit list that survives a session reset.

In action

Real output only. Everything below came out of a real run — nothing here is a mockup of what the library might do.

/cinemagraph"Make this hero move, but subtly."

The hero at the top of this repository's README, before and after. Light mode moves only what is already in the image — the header's dot grid drifts one cell per loop, a highlight walks down each column's command list, the cursor blinks, the constellation breathes, current flows along the connectors. Nothing new was drawn. Drag the divider.

The marketing-skills schematic hero, static: three columns of what a marketer types and the command that answers it.
The same schematic hero as a seamless loop: the header dot grid drifts, a highlight walks down each command list, the cursor blinks and current flows along the connector strip.
BEFORE · PNGAFTER · LOOP

Shipped as an animated WebP with a static PNG fallback, or a GIF when it has to live in a README. The renderer checks the loop seam, the moving region and the file weight before it hands anything back. This one: 40 frames, a 3.2-second loop, 0.30 MB as a GIF; the wrap step measured 0.021 against a typical step of 0.022, and frame 0 differs from the original still by a 3×10 px patch.

How a skill runs

Five stages, the same every time. A number the skill cannot get is written as unknown, never invented.

How a skill runs, in five stages: you say what you need in plain words or a slash command; it asks a couple of questions, one at a time; it scans your folder, lists what it found, and reads files only with your yes; it pulls GA4, Search Console or DataForSEO data when connected, else it asks you; it saves the work as a file you can edit.

Company context works the same way in every skill that needs it: scan the launch folder, list what was found, ask before reading a single file.

Take it home

Claude Code discovers skills one folder deep under ~/.claude/skills. This repo nests them by category, so the installer links each skill into place. Your edits land back in the repo, versioned — updating is a git pull.

WINDOWS · POWERSHELL
git clone https://github.com/risukisu/marketing-skills D:\marketing-skills
D:\marketing-skills\install.ps1
MACOS · LINUX
git clone https://github.com/risukisu/marketing-skills ~/marketing-skills
~/marketing-skills/install.sh

Just one skill

Every skill folder is self-contained. Copy it into ~/.claude/skills and it works on its own — no shared runtime, no registry.

Live data, optional

Connect Google Analytics 4 and Search Console and the data-driven skills stop asking you for numbers and start pulling them. Without them, every skill still runs; it asks instead.
