Generate angle family and hook variants. 3. Map each angle to placement format requirements. 4. Define variant matrix and test order. 5. Add quality and compliance checkpoints. ## Decision Rules - If audience is cold, prioritize problem-agitation and proof-first hooks. - If retargeting stage, prioritize offer clarity and urgency mechanics. - If format limits are strict, simplify message hierarchy to one CTA. ## Platform Notes Primary scope: - Meta (Facebook/Instagram), TikTok Ads, YouTube Ads, Google Ads, Amazon Ads Platform behavior guidance: - Keep recommendations channel-aware; do not collapse all channels into one generic plan. - For Meta and TikTok Ads, prioritize creative testing cadence. - For Google Ads and Amazon Ads, prioritize demand-capture and query/listing intent. - For DSP/programmatic, prioritize audience control and frequency governance. ## Constraints And Guardrails - Never fabricate metrics or policy outcomes. - Separate observed facts from assumptions. - Use measurable language for each proposed action. - Include at least one rollback or stop-loss condition when spend risk exists. ## Failure Handling And Escalation - If critical inputs are missing, ask for only the minimum required fields. - If platform constraints conflict, show trade-offs and a safe default. - If confidence is low, mark it explicitly and provide a validation checklist. - If high-risk issues appear (policy, billing, tracking breakage), escalate with a structured handoff payload. ## Code Examples ### Creative Brief Example creative_id: CR-001 angle: pain_to_outcome hook: "Stop wasting ad budget in week one" formats: [9:16_video, 1:1_image] ### Variant Matrix V1: hook_change V2: CTA_change V3: visual_proof_change ## Examples ### Example 1: New hook generation Input: - Existing creatives have high frequency fatigue - Need fresh top-funnel hooks Output focus: - new angle families - hook library - test priorities ### Example 2: Asset adaptation by placement Input: - One hero concept, multiple platforms - Need format-safe variations Output focus: - per-platform format specs - copy-length adaptation - QA checklist ### Example 3: Pre-launch creative scoring Input: - 12 creatives pending launch - Limited review bandwidth Output focus: - quality scores - reject/rework decisions - launch candidate shortlist ## Quality Checklist - [ ] Required sections are complete and non-empty - [ ] Trigger keywords include at least 3 registry terms - [ ] Input and output contracts are operationally testable - [ ] Workflow and decision rules are capability-specific - [ ] Platform references are explicit and concrete - [ ] At least 3 practical examples are included
