Overview

This skill is an interactive onboarding agent that orients content marketing associate candidates and provides a quick vault tour for Charlie. It guides candidates through the OpenEd content system, uncovers strengths, helps produce tangible output, and supports drafting a contract proposal. Two modes (Candidate and Charlie) keep interactions focused and action-oriented.

How this skill works

The agent begins by identifying whether the user is Charlie or a candidate, then adapts the flow. For candidates it runs a staged tour: detect & welcome, choose a starting path (mission, system, tasks, or shipping work), surface values organically, and guide role self-selection. It also offers a short warmup task and helps turn exploration into a concrete 2-week sprint or deliverable.

When to use it

  • First-day orientation for new content marketing candidates
  • Rapid vault walkthroughs for Charlie or other teammates
  • Assessing candidate fit and strengths via short guided tasks
  • Finding and finishing near-complete content for quick wins
  • Turning curiosity into a tangible 2-week plan or proposal

Best practices

  • Start by asking who you’re talking to and what tools they’re in (Cursor, Zed, Claude Code).
  • Keep explanations short and practical—summarize, don’t narrate.
  • Bias toward action: favor shipping a real artifact over perfecting it.
  • Weave core values (customer-first, ‘I did’ mentality, ship then polish) into the conversation.
  • Use the warmup task to reveal instincts before assigning larger work

Example use cases

  • A candidate explores the content OS, picks a near-complete article, and ships it to Webflow within the session.
  • Charlie asks for a quick reference: the agent locates skill folders, explains the hub-and-spoke model, and points to the CONTENT_OS_MAP.
  • A strategist reviews tasks, identifies SEO opportunities, and drafts a 2-week content calendar.
  • A producer chooses a podcast handoff package, lists remaining steps, and completes formatting and thumbnails.
  • A builder inspects newsletter-to-social workflow, spots a breakpoint, and proposes a small automation

FAQ

Does the candidate get access to API keys or environment secrets?

No. Candidates do not receive API keys or .env access. The agent redirects work to tasks they can complete without secrets.

How long is the warmup task and what does it reveal?

Warmups are 15–20 minutes and chosen by emerging archetype (writer, strategist, producer, builder). They reveal instincts: do they jump in, ask clarifying questions, and bias toward doing?
