What it does
Instagram hides everything past ~125 characters behind "more", so this skill makes that first line carry the whole post.
- Goal-driven hook formulas: saves (number-first result), shares (contrarian truth), comments (relatable cold-open), follows (mini-story confession) — it shortlists 2-3 and lets you pick.
- Skimmable body + one CTA: short lines, white space, one idea per post. Lazy prompts like "what do you think?" are banned.
- Humanizer pass: strips AI-tell vocabulary, caps em dashes, breaks stacked triads, kills generic openers and "The result?" reveals.
- No invented specifics: it will not fabricate a number, date, client name or result you did not actually give it.
- Approval card and publishing: shows formula, hook character count, full caption, hashtag set and required media, then publishes with your image or Reel via the Publora flow on approval.
Who it's for
- Solo founders and creators running their own Instagram
- Social media marketers and brand content managers
- Writers whose copy is fine but whose hooks are soft
- Anyone told their captions "sound AI-generated"
Examples
- Product launch post: ask for a save-optimized caption → IG1 formula front-loads the result number inside 125 characters, closing with "save this for your next launch".
- Reel support caption: the hook lives in the video, so the skill writes the companion caption plus a sized 3-5 hashtag set.
- Sharpening a draft: paste an existing caption and get a rewritten hook plus a humanizer audit pass.

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart. Copy the .codex-marketplace/instagram-skills/skills/ig-caption-writer folder from the GitHub repo sergebulaev/instagram-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/ig-caption-writer/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/sergebulaev/instagram-skills.git /tmp/instagram-skills && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/instagram-skills/.codex-marketplace/instagram-skills/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal.
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/sergebulaev/instagram-skills.git - Create the skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the whole Instagram skill set (don't copy just this one folder — it references shared
