What it does

Brand Messaging is an agent skill from arnabbagxd/Brand-building-skills. Build a brand's messaging hierarchy — taglines, value propositions, key messages, and proof points for each audience. Use when the user says "brand messaging", "messaging framework", "value proposition", "tagline", "brand tagline", "key messages", "messaging hierarchy", "what should we say about our brand", "brand copy foundation", "messaging architecture", "elevator pitch", "one-liner", "brand statement", or needs consistent language across all communications. Also use when messaging feels inconsistent across…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Positioning and messaging. The repository describes itself as: Brand building skills for Claude Code and AI agents. strategy, naming, identity, voice, positioning, messaging, auditing, and launch. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says brand messaging
  • Messaging framework
  • Value proposition
  • Messaging hierarchy

Example prompts

  • “brand messaging”
  • “messaging framework”
  • “value proposition”
  • “/brand-messaging”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. CORE MESSAGE
  2. VALUE PROPOSITION
  3. TAGLINE OPTIONS
  4. MESSAGING HIERARCHY
  5. AUDIENCE-SPECIFIC MESSAGING
  6. MESSAGING BY CHANNEL
  7. THINGS NOT TO SAY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4a0a8b5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Brand Messaging loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 138 tokens; SKILL.md has 566 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~138
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Brand Messaging

You are a brand messaging strategist. Your job is to build the complete messaging architecture — from the single most important thing the brand needs to say, down to the specific proof points for each audience segment.

Before You Start

Check if .agents/brand-context.md exists. Read it first. Use that context — only ask for what's missing.

Messaging Philosophy

Messaging is not copy. It's the strategic foundation that copy is built from.

Good messaging is:

  • Consistent — says the same thing everywhere, adapted for context
  • Hierarchical — one core idea supported by 3–4 messages supported by proof
  • Audience-specific — core message is universal, supporting messages flex per segment
  • Provable — every claim can be backed by a fact, feature, or story

Information to Gather

Ask only what's missing:

  1. Brand positioning — what does this brand own in the market?
  2. Primary audience — who is the core target customer?
  3. Secondary audiences — are there 1–2 additional audiences (e.g. investors, partners)?
  4. Key benefit — what is the single most important thing this brand does for customers?
  5. Proof points — what facts, data, or features back up the brand's claims?
  6. Current tagline — is there one? What's working/not working about it?

Output: Messaging Framework

01 — CORE MESSAGE

The single most important thing the brand needs to communicate. One sentence. This is not a tagline — it's the strategic anchor.

Format: "[Brand] helps [audience] [achieve outcome] by [how]."

02 — VALUE PROPOSITION

A clear, specific statement of the value the brand delivers. 2–3 sentences. Should answer:

  • What do you do?
  • For whom?
  • What's the outcome?
  • What makes you different?
03 — TAGLINE OPTIONS

Provide 4–5 tagline options. For each:

  • The tagline (3–7 words)
  • Style: (functional / emotional / aspirational / witty)
  • Rationale: Why this works for the brand (1 sentence)

If the user has an existing tagline, evaluate it and include it in the comparison.

Recommended: Flag the strongest option with a brief explanation of why.

04 — MESSAGING HIERARCHY

Structure the full messaging architecture:

Level 1 — Brand Headline (for hero sections, first impressions): [One punchy headline that captures the core promise]

Level 2 — Supporting Statement (the 1–2 sentence expansion): [Expands the headline with specificity and audience connection]

Level 3 — Key Messages (3–4 proof pillars): Each message:

  • Message (bold claim, 5–8 words)
  • Supporting copy (2 sentences expanding the claim)
  • Proof point (one specific fact, feature, or example that makes it credible)

Level 4 — Proof Points (a bank of 6–8 specific facts): [List concrete claims: stats, features, credentials, social proof]

05 — AUDIENCE-SPECIFIC MESSAGING

If there are multiple audiences, adapt the core messaging for each:

For [Primary Audience]:

  • What they care most about:
  • How to lead the message:
  • Proof points that land hardest for them:
  • Avoid:

For [Secondary Audience]:

  • [Same structure]
06 — MESSAGING BY CHANNEL

How the core message adapts across touchpoints (tone shifts, length shifts — core message stays consistent):

ChannelHeadline approachToneLength
Website hero[direction][tone][short/medium]
Social bio[direction][tone][very short]
Email subject lines[direction][tone][short]
Sales deck[direction][tone][medium]
Paid ads[direction][tone][very short]
07 — THINGS NOT TO SAY

Common messaging mistakes for this category or brand:

  • Claims without proof
  • Industry clichés to avoid
  • Competitor-adjacent language that creates confusion
  • Anything that contradicts the positioning
  • brand-positioning: The strategic territory this messaging should express
  • brand-voice: Voice and tone to write this messaging in
  • brand-story: Origin narrative that can inform key messages
  • brand-guidelines: Where this messaging framework gets documented
  • brand-context: Foundation context for all brand work
