# Headline Analyzer Studio

## Overview

Headline Analyzer Studio is a prompt-flow skill that evaluates, scores, and improves headlines and titles. It applies proven copywriting frameworks — curiosity gap, 4U, AIDA, emotional valence — to produce scored variants and platform-specific recommendations. It covers blog posts, YouTube videos, email subject lines, and social post headlines.

This skill is for content writers, editors, marketers, YouTubers, bloggers, and newsletter authors who want data-informed headline decisions without needing access to analytics tools.

## When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks to:

- Score a draft headline against proven frameworks
- Generate headline variants for A/B testing
- Optimize a blog post title for SEO and click-through
- Test YouTube video title options
- Improve email subject line open rates
- Review article H1 and subheadings
- Compare multiple headline options

**Trigger keywords:** headline analyzer, title optimizer, headline score, headline generator, title tester, blog title, YouTube title, email subject line, headline formula, headline framework

## Workflow

### Step 1 — Headline Capture

Collect from the user:
- The draft headline (or topic for generation from scratch)
- Content type (blog post, YouTube video, email, social post, article)
- Target platform (with platform-specific constraints)
- Target audience and desired emotion/action
- Word or character count constraints

### Step 2 — Framework Scoring

Score the headline against each relevant framework:

**Curiosity Gap**
Does the headline create an information gap the reader must close? (1–10)

**4U Framework**
- **Urgent:** Does it create time pressure? (1–10)
- **Unique:** Does it stand out from competing headlines? (1–10)
- **Ultra-specific:** Does it use concrete details? (1–10)
- **Useful:** Does it promise clear value? (1–10)

**Emotional Valence**
What emotion does it trigger? Positive (aspiration, curiosity, hope), negative (fear, frustration, urgency), or neutral?

**Specificity Score**
Does it use numbers, data points, or concrete promises? (1–10)

### Step 3 — Variant Generation

Generate 5–8 variants using different angles:
- **Curiosity gap:** "The [Adjective] [Secret/Trick/Mistake] [Authority] [Do/Know]"
- **Number/list:** "X [Ways/Reasons/Strategies] to [Achieve Outcome]"
- **How-to:** "How to [Achieve Outcome] [Timeframe/Condition]"
- **Question:** "[Provocative Question]?"
- **Controversial:** "[Bold Claim] — Here's Why"
- **Urgency:** "[Timeframe] to [Achieve Outcome] Before [Deadline]"
- **Emotional:** "[Emotionally charged promise]"
- **Specific promise:** "How [Person] [Achieved Result] in [Timeframe]"

### Step 4 — Platform-Specific Optimization

Apply platform-specific rules:

- **YouTube:** 60 characters max, CTR-optimized, front-load keywords, avoid clickbait flags
- **Blog (SEO):** 50–60 characters, include primary keyword, reader-focused benefit
- **Email subject line:** 30–50 characters, spam-filter safe (avoid FREE, BUY NOW, excessive punctuation), open-rate optimized
- **Social post:** Scroll-stopping, 10–15 words, platform-specific voice

### Step 5 — Comparison & Recommendation

Present a scored variants table:

| # | Headline | Curiosity | 4U Score | Specificity | Platform Fit | Overall |
|---|----------|-----------|----------|-------------|--------------|---------|
| 1 | ... | 8 | 28/40 | 7 | YouTube ✅ | 85 |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |

Include the top recommendation with rationale.

## Output Format

The output includes:

1. **Original Headline Analysis** — Scores and commentary on the draft
2. **Variant Table** — Scored comparison of 5–8 alternatives
3. **Top Recommendation** — Best variant with platform-specific rationale
4. **Platform Tips** — Format-specific optimization notes
5. **A/B Test Pair** — Two strongest variants for real-world testing

## Safety & Compliance

- No clickbait that misrepresents the actual content — every suggested headline must be honest
- No misleading claims or false promises in headline suggestions
- Respect platform headline policies (e.g., YouTube's anti-clickbait enforcement)
- This is a descriptive prompt-flow skill with zero code execution, zero network calls, and zero credential requirements

## Acceptance Criteria

1. User provides a draft headline; output includes scores across all applicable frameworks
2. 5–8 distinct variants are generated using different angles
3. Platform-specific advice is correct for the requested platform
4. Top recommendation includes clear rationale
5. No clickbait or misleading suggestions

## Examples

### Example 1: Blog Title

**User says:** "My draft title is 'Tips for Better Productivity.' It's a blog post for a SaaS audience. Help me improve it."

**Skill guides:** Score the generic title (low specificity, low curiosity), generate variants (numbered list, how-to, specific promise), recommend strongest option for SaaS blog audience.

### Example 2: YouTube Title

**User says:** "My video is about setting up a home office. Target title: 'Home Office Setup Guide.' Need YouTube-optimized options under 60 chars."

**Skill guides:** Score the draft, generate YouTube-optimized variants (curiosity gap, specific promise, list format), check 60-char limit, recommend best CTR option.
