We built 12 Claude Code skills that run our entire paid media ops across Google, Meta, and LinkedIn at ColdIQ (and we're giving the whole pack away). Our head of growth Ivan Falco runs $200K/month in ad spend from a terminal. It's how we doubled client load this year without losing quality. The skills do the work that used to fill our media buyers' calendars: spot creative fatigue, adjust bids, upload audiences, run bulk edits, flag broken campaigns, build reports. Each skill does a specific job: Google Ads: → keyword-analyzer: audits quality scores and finds keyword gaps → negative-keywords: reviews search terms and blocks wasted spend → performance-auditor: compares periods and flags what changed → search-terms: surfaces queries burning budget with zero conversions Meta Ads: → audience-builder: turns CRM lists into custom audiences → creative-fatigue-analyzer: spots declining CTR before the metrics flag it → fatigue-monitor: flags when your audience is saturated → spend-tracker: tracks budget pacing across every campaign LinkedIn Ads: → audience-builder: builds targeting audiences at scale → bid-optimizer: adjusts bids across campaigns in bulk → bulk-editor: mass edits campaigns, ads, and naming in seconds → creative-builder: generates ad creatives from brand specs You drop them into Claude Code, connect your ad accounts, and tell it what you need. It reads the skill, plugs into the platform, executes. 300+ hours of work went into building these. Comment ADS and we'll send all 12 over.

Hermes + Claude + Higgsfield MCP + ViralBuilder = 💰💰💰 Four tools. One prompt chain. Hook to finished video in 10 minutes. I built a Claude skill that writes shot-by-shot Higgsfield prompts from a single creative brief. ViralBuilder tells you what's winning. The skill turns it into a production-ready prompt. Higgsfield renders it. No creative director. No guessing. No separate tools. Here is the setup: Higgsfield MCP → Open Claude Code → Settings → Connectors → Enter: mcp.higgsfield.ai/mcp → Connect your account Hermes → The agent layer running underneath Claude Code → It holds your skills, crons, memory, and routing rules → When you prompt Claude, Hermes feeds it the context it needs ViralBuilder (like Gethookd) → The winning ecom video database → Scrapes top performing ecom videos across platforms → Claude reads the data and extracts what styles, hooks, and formats are actually scaling The skill: video-prompt-builder → Installed inside Claude via Hermes → Takes a creative brief and outputs a full shot-by-shot prompt → Covers camera work, effects, transitions, pacing, and energy arc → Every output is structured for Higgsfield to render without ambiguity No switching apps. No export steps. Everything runs from one place. ▸ FIND WINNING CREATIVE ANGLES ViralBuilder tells you what the market already validated. Claude reads it and extracts the pattern. Prompts to run: "Search ViralBuilder for the top performing ecom videos in [niche] over the last 21 days. Extract the 3 dominant hook styles and rank by view velocity." "Pull the winning video formats in [niche] from ViralBuilder. Which opening 3 seconds appears most across videos spending over $10k?" "Find what video style is scaling right now in [niche] for the US market. UGC, talking head, or product demo. Filter for videos with over 1M views." "Pull the last 30 days of viral ecom hooks in [niche] from ViralBuilder. Cluster by emotional trigger. Which cluster has the most longevity?" You are not guessing at angles. You are reading what the market already spent money validating. ▸ BUILD THE PROMPT WITH THE SKILL This is where the video-prompt-builder skill takes over. You give Claude the winning angle. The skill outputs a complete shot-by-shot prompt with effects, transitions, pacing, and energy arc ready to fire into Higgsfield. Prompts to run: "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. Brief: 15-second UGC ad for [product] in [niche]. Hook style: [style from ViralBuilder]. Tone: direct to camera, US English. Output the full shot-by-shot effects timeline, effects inventory, density map, and energy arc." "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. The dominant hook in [niche] this week is [hook]. Build a 10-second product video prompt that opens with a speed ramp into a close-up product reveal. Include a signature visual effect and a low-density CTA landing." "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. Brief: replicate the pacing and energy of a [style description] video for [product]. Target duration: 20 seconds. Output all four sections. Then generate the video with Higgsfield using the shot-by-shot prompt." The skill outputs four sections every time: → Shot-by-shot effects timeline with camera, movement, and transitions per shot → Master effects inventory showing every technique used and where → Effects density map showing high, medium, and low intensity across the timeline → Energy arc describing how the video opens, builds, and lands That output goes directly into Higgsfield. No rewriting. No translating. ▸ GENERATE THE CREATIVE Claude writes the brief via the skill. Higgsfield MCP builds the video. Both happen in the same session. Prompts to run: "Use the video-prompt-builder skill to write a 15-second UGC prompt for [product]. Hook in the first 3 seconds, speed ramp into product reveal, slow-motion CTA landing. Then generate with Higgsfield in 9:16 format." "Build 3 prompt variations on this winning angle: [angle]. Each variation opens with a different effect — speed ramp, digital zoom, whip pan. Use the video-prompt-builder skill for each. Then generate all three with Higgsfield." "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. Brief: problem-solution ad for [product], 20 seconds, US market. Problem shot at high density, product reveal at medium, result and CTA at low. Generate with Higgsfield in 9:16." No separate tool. No file transfer. The video comes back in the same thread. ▸ CHAIN THE WHOLE STACK One prompt. All four tools firing together. "You are my ad creative director. Hermes has loaded my brand context. Pull the top performing video style in [niche] from ViralBuilder this week. Use the video-prompt-builder skill to write a full shot-by-shot prompt for [product] that replicates that style — 20 seconds, 9:16, US market, hook in the first 3 seconds. Output the effects timeline, inventory, density map, and energy arc. Then generate the video with Higgsfield." That single prompt replaces a half-day of production. The math before this stack: Brief: 30 minutes Script: 1 hour Creative production: 2 to 3 hours Agency or freelancer cost: $500 to $2,000 per creative With this stack: Hook to finished creative: 10 minutes Cost per creative: tool subscription, a fraction of agency rate 5 product tests in the time it used to take to brief one Bad product tests are where US ad budget disappears. $600 to $1,500 per failed test, before you even know if the angle works. This stack shows you what the market already validated before you spend a dollar on production. Hermes = your context layer. Brand, goals, past performance. Claude is always informed. ViralBuilder = your winning video database. See exactly what styles, hooks, and formats are scaling before you produce anything. video-prompt-builder skill = the translation layer. Turns a creative brief into a structured, production-ready Higgsfield prompt every time. Claude = the brain. Reads the market, writes the brief, chains the tools. Higgsfield MCP = the output. Video generated directly from the prompt. No export step. Four tools. One session. 10 minutes. Comment + RT "STACK" and I'll DM you the full workflow + the video-prompt-builder skill file.

I automated my content engine and 2 hrs/day dropped to 10 min [ what’s new in v2 ]: - 9 platforms scraped while I sleep → 2,000+ topics/day - a 5-signal scoring brain that filters down to the 10 that matter - voice DNA writer.. same tone, different structure every time - a self-learning loop that remembers every approve and decline - profile DNA — knows exactly what goes viral on MY account v1 was a brain with no body v2 has eyes, a filter, and memory + fully automated Here’s how to build it step-by-step ↓ [ The architecture]: /content-engine ├── scrapers/ (9 platform scrapers) ├── extension/ (chrome ext for X, linkedin, reddit) ├── ai/ │ ├── ranker.py (5-signal scoring brain) │ ├── content_writer.py (voice DNA + structures) │ ├── profile_analyzer.py (your positioning DNA) │ └── sentiment_analyzer.py ├── publisher/ (export + time slot scheduling) ├── gui/dashboard.py (streamlit command center) ├── ingest_server.py (local server on localhost) └── data/content_engine.db (everything stored locally) let me walk you through each layer ↓ LAYER 1: Research engine 9 sources scanned 24/7 (X, reddit, YT, HN, github, trends + chrome ext for reddit and linkedin) every post you scroll past gets tagged and stored locally LAYER 2: Scoring brain every topic scored on 5 signals: - freshness (0.20) - velocity (0.25) - virality (0.25) - relevance (0.20) - uniqueness (0.10) velocity 8+ → forced min score of 7. catches late bloomers that suddenly explode 2,000 topics → top 10 ranked LAYER 3: Voice DNA writer not one structure every time. system picks the format: - short take - tactical playbook - QT contrast - contrarian - resource drop - proof post a voice guardian auto-rewrites anything that fails: lowercase ratio, no hashtags, no corporate words LAYER 4: Dashboard Streamlit dark theme. 5 tabs review queue = tinder for content. swipe approve, swipe decline LAYER 5: Publishing no auto-posting. zero account risk approve → pick a slot (8am / 12pm / 5pm) → exports a .txt → copy / paste / post also auto-drafts a linkedin version of every approved tweet LAYER 6: Self-learning loop every click logged. weekly the system embeds your decline notes and re-tunes the scoring brain month 1: you approve 30% month 3: 70% pre-filtered month 6: 10 min/day LAYER 7: Profile DNA analyzes your past tweets. tells you exactly which pillars, formats, and hooks perform best on YOUR account the scoring brain uses it to prioritize what already works for you daily run: open dashboard → 10 min reviewing → post 3x → close total cost: ~$15/month everything else: local, sqlite, no cloud, no subscription unfortunately I couldn’t paste in long-form format initial description which was made before but if this hits 2,000 likes I drop the full build guide with every prompt you need to ship it in claude code reply "ENGINE" + RT and I'll DM you access to test it (follow me first so I can write) save this so you don't lose it

Steph from OpenVC
Steph from OpenVC@StephNass·
The first time I raised, I built spreadsheet with investor names. Now, I have something 10x better: Building an investor list is smart. Every great founder I know has a list of some kind. But manually checking if each investor actually deploys capital in your stage, vertical, and geography? It can take hours. And as a founder, you’re busy. So we came up with a better idea: OpenMap. A visual directory of 16,000+ VCs, angels, and family offices worldwide. Think of it as Google Maps for Venture Capital. Just search by city, stage, or vertical and it will: 1: Show you investors actively looking for deals 2: Find warm intros through your LinkedIn and Gmail connections 3: Let you submit your deck directly to investors who match your criteria Instead of spending weeks building a list from scratch, you get a live, searchable map of 16,000+ investors in seconds. Like + Comment "VC map" for free access I’ll send you a DM with the link. PS - If you're a VC, you should be on this map. If you're a founder, you need to know this map.

I fully reverse-engineered Ramp's internal AI operating system for marketing agencies. Their system — called Glass — is how they got 99% of their entire company using AI every single day. 350+ reusable workflows. Every tool connected at first login. Memory that refreshes every 24 hours. Automations running while everyone sleeps. I partnered with my engineering team and we broke down every component inside it. Then we rebuilt the whole thing for marketing agencies. 76 pages. Every system. Every layer. Every step. Steal it. Comment "OS" and I'll send it directly. Must be a following to receive auto DM
Eric Glyman@eglyman

99% of Ramp uses ai daily. but we noticed most people were stuck — not because the models weren't good enough, but because the setup was too painful and unintuitive for most. terminal configs, mcp servers, everyone figuring it out alone. so we built Glass. every employee gets a fully configured ai workspace on day one — integrations connected via sso, a marketplace of 350+ reusable skills built by colleagues, persistent memory, scheduled automations. when one person on a team figures out a better workflow, everyone on that team gets it and gets more productive. the companies that make every employee effective with ai will compound advantages their competitors can't match. most are waiting for vendors to solve this. we decided to own it.

I interviewed all of the best creative strategists in the world. @binghott. @iamshackelford. @DenneyDara. @sourfraser. @MatthewGattozzi. @pkennedy93 @thedennis. @harrydelmege_. @heyitsalexP. (thank you so much guys, you're all the best) If you read this document you will be able to become, train, & hire the best advertiser/creative strategist in the world. I promise you that. Hiring and training creative strategists is one of the most expensive mistakes you can make if you get it wrong. So I asked the best in the world: what separates the ones who actually produce winners from everyone else. I wrote it all up in one doc. I put a lot of time into this and there literally 0 AI, just 14 pages of straight sauce. reply "STRAT" and I'll send it over.

I want to do a few more of these calls. If your MAX 20x plan ran out of tokens unexpectedly early and you're willing to screenshare and run some prompts through Claude Code please comment. Trying to figure out how we can improve /usage to give more info.
Kieran Klaassen@kieranklaassen

Resolved!! @trq212 helped me out debug where the token usage came from and it was my fault 100% Script to find token usage gist.github.com/kieranklaassen… I had a recurring script that ran every 5 minutes that should not have run every 5. I hope we can make it easier to detect these within Claude and Claude Code soon too.

I just gave Claude control of my cold email campaigns. Here's what happened: Most cold email managers are stuck in the same loop: ☒ Log into Instantly manually every day ☒ Check metrics one sequence at a time ☒ Pause underperformers by hand ☒ Write new copy with no data to guide it Until we built the opposite. And I just recorded a full walkthrough breaking down the complete system: → How Claude logs into Instantly, reads your dashboard, and flags what's broken → How to set rules so Claude pauses sequences under 1% reply rate automatically → How Claude scales winning sequences by 20% volume without touching a thing → How Claude rewrites losing email steps using only your best-performing copy as reference → How Claude pulls weekly reports and saves them to a local folder - zero dashboard diving This isn't theory or fluff. I'm showing the exact prompts, the folder structure, the permission setup, and the confirmation flow Claude uses before making any changes. The wildest part? We do it all from one Mac with the Claude desktop app. (No extra tools. No dev work. No agency.) No bloated tech stack. No extra headcount. No manual ops work eating your week. This system is built on Computer Use - Claude sees your screen, navigates your tools, and asks for confirmation before anything risky. You stay in control. Claude does the work. Want the full breakdown? Follow me Reply "COWORK" I'll send it straight to your DMs.

I built 4 GTM agents in Claude Code that replaced hours of manual work per client. Here's the complete playbook for each one: 1️⃣ ICP Research Agent → Receives a company or contact list → Researches firmographic fit and tech stack signals → Scores each account against ICP criteria → Returns a ranked summary with match rating and reasoning → Runs in its own context window - zero bleed into main session 2️⃣ Sequence Builder Agent → Takes a signal type and ICP tier as input → Selects the right channel (LinkedIn, email, or WhatsApp) → Writes a complete multitouch sequence with subject lines → Includes reply handling scripts for each response type → Outputs ready-to-deploy copy without a single manual touchpoint 3️⃣ Campaign Diagnostician Agent → Ingests campaign metrics or sequence performance data → Identifies the most likely failure point in the funnel → Ranks 3 tests by expected revenue impact → Returns exact copy or targeting changes for each test → Tells you what to fix before you burn more of your addressable market 4️⃣ GTM Analyst Agent (my favourite) → Takes any campaign export or data file → Identifies performance trends and flags anomalies → Surfaces a prioritised action list ranked by revenue impact → Stores findings in a persistent project file for future runs → Gets smarter every time it runs - memory: project These agents mean I wake up to: - Prospects already scored and tiered before the day starts - Sequences drafted and ready for review - Campaign diagnosis completed overnight - Data analysis done without opening a single spreadsheet All running inside Claude Code, deployed via Trigger(.)dev, tracked without a human in the loop. The agentic AI market is moving from $7 billion to $93 billion. The agencies that figure this out in the next 6 months will have a cost and speed advantage that's very hard to close. I packaged the entire build into a free playbook - the WAT framework (Workflows, Agent, Tools), sub-agent configs, CLAUDE.md templates, deployment steps, and context management rules. Want the full Claude Code GTM Engineer's Playbook? Reply AGENT below and I'll send it over.

Anthropic ran their entire marketing operation with one person. $380 billion company. Paid search. Paid social. SEO. Email. App stores. One non-technical hire doing all of it — for 10 months. I pulled it apart. Compared it to every system we've built across the clients we've worked with. Then asked myself one question: If I had to reverse engineer this from scratch — what would it actually look like? Turns out the architecture isn't that complicated. I mapped the whole thing into a 47-page PDF you can upload directly to any LLM. It coaches you through building your own version step by step. Comment "marketing" and I'll send it over.
