What it does

Marketing Ideas is an agent skill from freekmurze/dotfiles. When the user needs marketing ideas, inspiration, or strategies for their SaaS or software product. Also use when the user asks for 'marketing ideas,' 'growth ideas,' 'how to market,' 'marketing strategies,' 'marketing tactics,' 'ways to promote,' or 'ideas to grow.' This skill provides 139 proven marketing approaches organized by category.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/ideas-by-category.md`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Go-to-market strategy.

When your agent uses it

  • Needs marketing ideas
  • Strategies for their SaaS
  • Software product
  • The user asks for marketing ideas

Example prompts

  • “marketing ideas,”
  • “growth ideas,”
  • “how to market,”
  • “/marketing-ideas”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Ask about their product, audience, and current stage if not clear
  2. Suggest 3-5 most relevant ideas based on their context
  3. Provide details on implementation for chosen ideas
  4. Consider their resources (time, budget, team size)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8874280. 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

Marketing Ideas loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 514 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~90
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.9k

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.
