Connect above does this for you. If Claude ever opens the dialog empty, here's exactly what goes where:
The difference between a reel that passes and a reel that gets watched is often one sentence.
viral-hook-writer gives you that first sentence as an experiment, not a guess.
One sentence decides if the reel gets watched
/viral-hook-writer how to avoid [problem] for [audience]
/viral-hook-writer how to avoid [problem] for [audience]
The return came with ranked alternatives and the top-three copy sequence.
What it returned
A ranked list of opening lines with notes on angle, curiosity pressure, and how long each likely holds attention. The useful part is not creativity alone; it is the ranking signal attached to each option.
That meant I ran fewer drafts and kept the creative cycle tied to evidence, not adjectives.
When the whole team agrees on the opening line
I copied the top-ranked opening into the same script flow and only edited vocabulary to match my brand constraints. The rest of the reel got easier because everyone agreed on one opening target.
If you want to go straight from hook to draft, this leads cleanly into reel-scripter.
