Ask the user for:

Long-form content — the hub piece. Can be:
- A newsletter issue (pasted or file path)
- A blog post (pasted, file path, or URL to fetch)
- A podcast/video transcript
- A research doc or set of notes
Target platform (optional) — LinkedIn, Twitter/X, or both (default: both)
Voice/tone — what the brand voice sounds like (casual, professional, witty, etc.)
Target audience — who follows them on social
Newsletter/content link (optional) — URL to link back to in CTA posts
Subscriber/reader count (optional) — for social proof in CTA posts
Number of spokes (optional) — default: 5 (one per template)
Constraints (optional) — things to avoid, compliance requirements

Step 2: Extract the Core from the Hub

Read the long-form content and extract:

Main thesis — the one big idea in one sentence
Key takeaways — 3-7 specific, actionable points
Supporting stories — personal anecdotes, examples, or case studies
Data/proof points — any numbers, stats, or results mentioned
Contrarian or surprising elements — anything that challenges conventional thinking
Tools/resources mentioned — any recommendations, links, or references

Present this extraction to the user as a summary before generating spokes. This ensures nothing important is missed.

Step 3: Generate Spoke Posts

Create one post for each of the spoke templates:

Template 1: Story

Tell a narrative that leads to the hub's key insight.

Structure:

Pain/Attention — Open with a personal story or relatable problem
Agitate — Show how things got worse
Intrigue — Introduce a turning point
Positive Future — Show the benefits
Solution — Bring clarity with a specific action or resource

Rules:

First person. This is a story, not a lecture.
Short sentences. One idea per line.
The opening line must hook.

Template 2: Observation

Share a pattern or insight related to the hub topic.

Structure:

Observation statement — One clear, specific thing you noticed
Evidence — 2-4 specifics that support the observation
Closer — A short, punchy takeaway line

Template 3: Contrarian Take

Challenge a commonly held belief from the hub content.

Structure:

Hot take — State the contrarian position clearly
Supporting points — 3-5 reasons this take is valid
Reframe — End with a new way to think about it

Template 4: Listicle

Curate tools, resources, tips, or takeaways from the hub content.

Structure:

Framing line — "X [things] every [audience] should know about:"
Numbered list — Each item with a name + short description
Optional closer — A recommendation or CTA

Template 5: Meme

Turn the hub's key insight into a meme-format post.

Structure:

Choose a meme format — Match the hub's core tension to a template
Write the caption — The meme does the heavy lifting. Caption adds context.

Rules:

Standalone. Understandable without reading the hub content.
Use the audience's in-group language.
Don't force it. If no natural meme angle, skip and double up on another template.

Template 6: Past vs. Present

Show how the hub topic has evolved — then vs. now.

Structure:

Then — What things looked like before. 3-5 bullet points.
Now — What things look like after. 3-5 bullet points (matching structure).
Lesson — One line that captures the shift.

Step 4: Generate CTA Posts

Create 2 CTA posts to drive traffic back to the hub content:

Pre-Hub CTA (publish the day before or morning of)

{Attention-grabbing opener related to the topic}
{1-2 sentences of context — why this matters}

Here's what I'll cover:
1. {Takeaway 1}
2. {Takeaway 2}
3. {Takeaway 3}

Tomorrow, I'll share this with [XX,XXX] subscribers.

If you want in: {link}

Post-Hub CTA (publish the day after)

{Problem question or pain point}
{1-2 sentences on why most people get this wrong}

Yesterday, [XX,XXX] people got my breakdown on [topic].

Miss it? Grab it here ↓
{link}

CTA rules:

If the user provides a subscriber count, use it for social proof.
If no count is available, skip that line — don't make one up.
The link should be the last element.

Step 5: Tag Content Psychology

Tag each post with its primary emotional trigger:

Trigger	What it does	Post types that map
Entertains	Generates awareness	Story, Past vs. Present
Teaches	Builds trust	Listicle, Observation
Empathizes	Deepens emotional connection	Story (pain-focused), Contrarian
Makes me think	Challenges preconceptions	Contrarian Take, Observation

Flag if the batch is unbalanced. A good week has at least 2 different triggers represented.

Step 6: Platform Adaptation

LinkedIn:

First line is everything — shows above the "see more" fold
Line breaks generously
1,300 characters is the sweet spot
End with a question or conversation starter

Twitter/X:

280 characters for single tweets — ruthlessly edit
Threads: first tweet stands alone
Listicles and observations compress well into single tweets
Stories and contrarian takes work better as threads

Step 7: Build Publishing Schedule

Day	Post Type	Trigger
Day 1 (pre-hub)	Pre-Hub CTA	—
Day 2 (hub day)	Hub publishes	—
Day 3 (post-hub)	Post-Hub CTA	—
Day 4	Story	Entertains / Empathizes
Day 5	Observation	Teaches
Day 6	Contrarian Take	Makes me think
Day 7	Listicle or Past vs. Present	Teaches / Entertains

Rules

The hub piece does the heavy thinking. Spokes repackage, they don't rehash. Each spoke should feel like a standalone post, not a summary.
Never copy-paste a section of the hub and post it as a spoke. Rewrite for the platform and format.
The Story template is the hardest but typically gets the highest engagement. It needs a real narrative arc.
Contrarian takes only work if the original content actually has a contrarian angle. Don't manufacture one.
CTA posts work best when they give a taste of value before asking for the click.
If the hub is thin on material (under 500 words or only 1-2 takeaways), generate 3 spokes instead of 5 and flag that the hub could be expanded.
