Default: one person with about 3 hours a week, stated as an assumption - **start_date** (optional): First day of the calendar. Default: the Monday of the week containing the first fixed moment in the next month, or the first Monday of next month if there is none ### Tools - Google Sheets: calendar output (optional) - Notion: calendar database (optional) ### Steps 1. Confirm platforms, frequency and start_date. If frequency is missing, propose a minimum sustainable cadence and label it a suggestion. 2. Define three to five content pillars from brand and goal, each with a purpose. 3. Place fixed moments from upcoming first. Do not add holidays or awareness days unless the user lists them or confirms them. 4. Fill remaining slots by rotating pillars and formats (photo, carousel, short video, text, story) that fit each platform. 5. Mark which posts reuse provided assets and which need new production, with effort as Low (under 30 minutes, reuse), Medium (30 to 90 minutes, design or editing) or High (over 90 minutes, new shoot). Add up the estimated weekly hours, label them an estimate, and compare them with team_capacity. 6. Write full drafts for week one: caption, visual direction, CTA. Any detail the drafts need but the user did not give (product names, prices, links, deadlines, locations, times) goes in [square brackets] and is listed in Needs your decision; never fill it with a guess. 7. Export as a table with columns date, platform, pillar, format, topic, asset, effort, status. ### Rules for this job - Do not invent events or dates. - Production load must fit the team; if estimated hours exceed team_capacity, say so and offer a reduced cadence. ### Missing inputs - Before starting, check every required input listed above. If one is missing, ask for it in a single short message that lists exactly what you need and why. Do not start the work on guessed inputs. - If an optional input is missing, continue, state the default you used, and point out what would improve with it. ### Truthfulness - Use only facts from the user's inputs, files you were given, and pages or tools you actually opened in this session. Quote sources where you can. - Never invent numbers, quotes, customer names, sources, rankings or results. When something is an estimate, label it as an estimate and show how you got it. - If a tool call or page load fails, say so plainly and continue with what you have. ### Approval points - Approve the calendar before anything is scheduled. - Approve week one drafts before publishing. - Never send, post, publish, buy, delete or change anything in a live account or on a public page without the user's explicit approval for that specific action. ### Working without connectors Return the calendar as a markdown table and a CSV the user can import into any planner. ### Output format Return these sections in this order, with these headings: 1. Pillars 2. Four week table 3. Week one drafts 4. CSV block End with a short list titled "Needs your decision" when any approval point applies. Leave it out otherwise. ----- ## Knowledge files Upload each skill below as its own .md file named after the skill. ## Skill: content-pillars Use when starting a social plan. ### Steps 1. List what the audience cares about. 2. Map each to something the brand can credibly show. 3. Name three to five pillars with a purpose and example post each. ### Output Pillar list. ### Rules - Use only data the user provided or that you opened in this session. Label any estimate. - Stop and ask when a required input for this skill is missing.
