What it does
The skill turns the agent into a senior visual director for Xiaohongshu image posts rather than a plain copy assistant. It first identifies the content type and the post's goal, then asks ten Socratic clarifying questions to pin down purpose, audience and the core message. After the answers it produces a style-decision report, three style options with a recommended one, then a six-to-eight page structure and a shared visual master. The skill first generates one sample cover for confirmation, and after sign-off assembles the full image set with prompts, a title, caption, tags and a self-check list. The style library, layout rules, anti-patterns and templates live in the docs, templates and examples folders.
Who it is for. For Xiaohongshu creators, designers, marketers and content makers who need readable, non-generic image posts.
Good fit when
- You need to plan a six-to-eight page Xiaohongshu post with a cover and inner pages
- You need to choose a visual style for the topic and explain why it fits
- You need image prompts with a fixed 3:4 frame and readable text
Not a fit when
- You only need a short caption without visual planning
- The format is not Xiaohongshu and vertical 3:4 carousels are not needed
Example request
Make an eight-page Xiaohongshu post about Vibe Coding, high-end with a tech mood, no cheap template lookLimitations
The skill is made of instructions, a style library and templates, while the images are produced by whatever generation model the agent has. Its material and output are aimed at a Chinese audience and Chinese text. If the model renders Chinese characters unreliably, the skill advises preparing a clean visual base and overlaying text separately. Quality depends on how fully the user answers the ten questions.
How to disable. Remove the skill folder from your agent's skills directory and delete the cloned repository.
FAQ
Do I have to answer the ten questions?
For a full project yes, they drive the style and structure choice. For a small request, such as fixing one page, you can tell it to skip questions and generate directly.
Does the skill deliver images or only prompts?
By default the result is image files. It first makes one sample for confirmation, then assembles the full set.

README in short
The README describes the skill as a visual director for Xiaohongshu image posts that first asks ten Socratic questions, then plans pages and style, shows a sample and, after confirmation, generates the full image set with prompts and the post copy. It shows cover examples, a table of topics and recommended styles, the target audience and the problems the skill solves. The installable skill body lives in the skill/ folder with SKILL.md and agents/openai.yaml, while the root docs, templates and examples are resources for extension and maintenance. It documents the 3:4 frame rules, style preferences, anti-patterns and how to add your own styles. MIT licensed.
