Draft Content

If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see CONNECTORS.md.

Generate marketing content drafts tailored to a specific content type, audience, and brand voice.

Trigger

User runs /draft-content or asks to draft, write, or create marketing content.

Inputs

Gather the following from the user. If not provided, ask before proceeding:

  1. Content type — one of:

    • Blog post
    • Social media post (specify platform: LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook)
    • Email newsletter
    • Landing page copy
    • Press release
    • Case study
  2. Topic — the subject or theme of the content

  3. Target audience — who this content is for (role, industry, seniority, pain points)

  4. Key messages — 2-4 main points or takeaways to communicate

  5. Tone — e.g., authoritative, conversational, inspirational, technical, witty (optional if brand voice is configured)

  6. Length — target word count or format constraint (e.g., "1000 words", "280 characters", "3 paragraphs")

Brand Voice

  • If the user has a brand voice configured in their local settings file, apply it automatically. Inform the user that brand voice settings are being applied.
  • If no brand voice is configured, ask: "Do you have brand voice guidelines you'd like me to follow? If not, I'll use a neutral professional tone."
  • Apply the specified or default tone consistently throughout the draft.

Content Generation by Type

Blog Post

  • Engaging headline (provide 2-3 options)
  • Introduction with a hook (question, statistic, bold statement, or story)
  • 3-5 organized sections with descriptive subheadings
  • Supporting points, examples, or data references in each section
  • Conclusion with a clear call to action
  • SEO considerations: suggest a primary keyword, include it in the headline and first paragraph, use related keywords in subheadings

Social Media Post

  • Platform-appropriate format and length
  • Hook in the first line
  • Hashtag suggestions (3-5 relevant hashtags)
  • Call to action or engagement prompt
  • Emoji usage appropriate to brand and platform
  • If LinkedIn: professional framing, paragraph breaks for readability
  • If Twitter/X: concise, punchy, within character limit
  • If Instagram: visual-first language, story-driven, hashtag block

Email Newsletter

  • Subject line (provide 2-3 options with open-rate considerations)
  • Preview text
  • Greeting
  • Body sections with clear hierarchy
  • Call to action button text
  • Sign-off
  • Unsubscribe note reminder

Landing Page Copy

  • Headline and subheadline
  • Hero section copy
  • Value propositions (3-4 benefit-driven bullets or sections)
  • Social proof placeholder (suggest testimonial or stat placement)
  • Primary and secondary CTAs
  • FAQ section suggestions
  • SEO: meta title and meta description suggestions

Press Release

  • Headline following press release conventions
  • Dateline and location
  • Lead paragraph (who, what, when, where, why)
  • Supporting quotes (provide placeholder guidance)
  • Company boilerplate placeholder
  • Media contact placeholder
  • Standard press release formatting

Case Study

  • Title emphasizing the result
  • Customer overview (industry, size, challenge)
  • Challenge section
  • Solution section (what was implemented)
  • Results section with metrics (prompt user for data)
  • Customer quote placeholder
  • Call to action

SEO Considerations (for web content)

For blog posts, landing pages, and other web-facing content:

  • Suggest a primary keyword based on the topic
  • Recommend keyword placement: headline, first paragraph, subheadings, meta description
  • Suggest internal and external linking opportunities
  • Recommend a meta description (under 160 characters)
  • Note image alt text opportunities

Output

Present the draft with clear formatting. After the draft, include:

  • A brief note on what brand voice and tone were applied
  • Any SEO recommendations (for web content)
  • Suggestions for next steps (e.g., "Review with your team", "Add customer quotes", "Pair with a visual")

Ask: "Would you like me to revise any section, adjust the tone, or create a variation for a different channel?"

How to use draft-content on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

1

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

  • Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
  • Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
  • Active project directory or workspace where you want to add draft-content
2

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins --skill draft-content

The skills CLI fetches draft-content from GitHub repository anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins and configures it for Cursor.

3

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?
│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────
│ • Amp
│ • Antigravity
│ • Cline
│ • Codex
│ ●Cursor(selected)
│ • Cursor
│ • Windsurf
4

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/draft-content

Reload or restart Cursor to activate draft-content. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /draft-content) or your agent's skill management interface.

Security & Verification Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

  • Willingness to iterate and refine outputs

Time Estimate

15-45 minutes depending on use case complexity

Installation Steps

  1. 1.Install skill using provided installation command
  2. 2.Test with simple use case relevant to your work
  3. 3.Evaluate output quality and relevance
  4. 4.Iterate on prompts to improve results
  5. 5.Integrate into regular workflow if valuable

Common Pitfalls

  • Expecting perfect results without iteration
  • Not providing enough context in prompts
  • Using skill for tasks outside its intended scope
  • Accepting outputs without review and validation

Best Practices

✓ Do

  • +Start with clear, specific prompts
  • +Provide relevant context and constraints
  • +Review and refine all outputs before using
  • +Iterate to improve output quality
  • +Document successful prompt patterns

✗ Don't

  • Don't use without understanding skill limitations

✓ Use When

Use when skill capabilities match your task, clear ROI on time saved, and you can validate outputs. Best for repetitive tasks, learning, and quality improvement.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid when task requires deep expertise you can't validate, involves sensitive decisions, or when learning process is more valuable than speed of completion.

Learning Path

  1. 1Familiarize yourself with skill capabilities and limitations
  2. 2Start with low-risk, non-critical tasks
  3. 3Progress to more complex and valuable use cases
