What it does
Runs a six-phase workflow to produce a ready-to-execute monthly social content calendar:
- Phase 0: reads existing context (
context/brand-style.md, past best performers, upcoming events) - Phase 1: confirms month, platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, X), posting cadence, monthly goal, and content pillars
- Phase 2 (optional): competitor scraping and seasonal/trend research via Firecrawl, SerpApi, or Playwright MCPs
- Phase 3: sets pillar ratios (educational, BTS, social proof, promo…) and a format mix (single image / carousel / reel)
- Phase 4–5: writes every post slot with a specific topic, hook angle, visual direction, and objective, then saves a summary table plus full calendar to
context/content-calendar.md - Phase 6: swap topics, move dates, add campaign posts, rebalance the mix
Who it's for
- Freelancers and agencies running social for multiple SMB clients
- Solo marketers who plan content month by month
- Teams that need a tight brief before caption writing or design work
Example uses
- "Build a March Instagram calendar for a hair salon, 4x/week, goal is more booking enquiries" → 16 slots distributed across pillars
- Give 3 competitor handles → the skill reviews their last 3–4 weeks and surfaces content gaps to own
- A month with a product launch → promo slots are anchored first, with trust-building content filling around them (max 20% promotional rule)

Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the skills/content-calendar folder from the GitHub repo stevenflanagan1/social-ai-team into my ~/.claude/skills/content-calendar/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/stevenflanagan1/social-ai-team.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r social-ai-team/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open your terminal.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/stevenflanagan1/social-ai-team.git - Create the skills directory:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skills over:
cp -r social-ai-team/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/(this also brings/brand-onboardingand/caption-writer, which this skill hands off to) - Open Claude Code in your working folder and run
/brand-onboardingfirst socontext/brand-style.mdexists. - Then ask for a calendar — e.g. "Build this month's Instagram content calendar" — or invoke
/content-calendar. - Optional: configure the Firecrawl, SerpApi, or Playwright MCP servers for competitor and trend research; without them the skill runs in baseline mode.
