What it does
Many ads fail because a good script was made in the wrong format. An explanation of something invisible gets filmed as a talking head. A story that needs to unfold in order becomes a single image. A script written to be heard runs in a feed where nobody has the sound on. This skill reads your script, not your product page, and finds the part that carries it: how it works, proof, the offer or the problem. It then decides, for six properties (a face people believe, showing what a camera can't, controlled order, sound, time to hold attention, sounding like a person), whether the script must have it, would be helped by it, or doesn't need it, quoting the line that makes it so. Then it ranks the formats that can hold all the "musts", suggests blending two when different parts need different things, and names the skills that…
You give it
- The finished script
- What the product is and how it's bought (optional)
- The buyer stage and the reason someone buys (optional)

You get
- The part that carries the script, with the line that shows it
- Six properties marked must, helps or no, each with a reason
- Formats ranked by a fit score out of 100 (the share of the script's musts each can hold), with a blend if two parts need different ones
- The skills that make it, as a script skill and its clips skill for video, or an image skill for a still
- A length check, and where to add length for a longer test
Use it when
- You have a finished script and you're deciding what to make it as.
- An ad tested badly and you suspect the format, not the words.
- You're choosing between a person on camera, animation and an image ad for the same idea.
How to use it
- Start a chat with the skill. Open it if you added it to your AI, or copy it and paste it in.
- Paste your finished script underneath, with the parts labelled if you have them.
- Add what the product is and any limits (no presenter, no budget for animation).
- Read the "must" lines first. Each one should quote your script.
