This skill writes the whole script. ## Why use it Carousels reach far but are tedious to plan, and a generic template ignores what makes people swipe in your space. This skill builds the structure and, through the MCP, models it on carousel angles that have actually performed for your audience. ## What it does You give it a topic or a long-form idea. It builds the full script: a cover slide that promises one thing, one atomic idea per value slide, and a closing slide with a single clear CTA, plus the caption that goes with it. ## What you get - A slide-by-slide carousel script (cover, value slides, CTA) - One clear idea per slide - A matching caption, saved as a draft ## Why the Taplio MCP makes it better A skill on its own is a clever prompt working from memory. Connected to the Taplio MCP, the same skill runs on your real account and real data, which is what turns a generic draft into one built for you and proven to work. Here is what each function adds: - **`get_me`** sets the slide voice, language and angle to match you and the people you write for. - **`search_inspiration`** surfaces the carousel angles and cover promises that actually performed in your niche, so the cover hook and slide order are built on proven swipe-through patterns. The model alone does not know what makes people swipe in your space; the inspiration index does. - **`create_draft`** saves the finished result as a real draft on your Taplio account, so you go from chat to a post that is ready to ship, with zero copy-paste. - **`update_draft`** refines that draft in place as you iterate, so your edits live on your account instead of a throwaway chat window. - **`schedule_draft`** queues the post at a peak time you choose, so it lands when your audience is actually online, not at 2am. - **`publish_draft`** publishes the post, and only ever when you explicitly confirm, so nothing goes live behind your back. Power up with Taplio Taplio runs this at scale : it designs the carousel in your brand colors, exports PDF or PNG, and schedules the post plus caption in one click.
