What it does

Develop Creative Concept is an agent skill from openvetta/open-vetta. Develop a vague content request into a reviewable creative strategy, big idea, treatment, script spine, visual system, and acceptance criteria before image or video production. Use when the user has a goal, product, theme, or audience but no concrete image, scene, campaign concept, narrative, or production-ready brief; also use to compare creative directions before building a workflow.

Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/concept-generation-and-selection.md` and `references/creative-brief-and-strategy.md`).

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Video production and User stories. The repository describes itself as: Open-source, local-first AI agent for coding and real work. BYOK models, MCP, skills, plugins, workflows, and private knowledge bases. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user has a goal
  • Audience but no concrete image
  • Campaign concept
  • Production-ready brief

Example prompts

  • “/develop-creative-concept”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Normalize the problem: objective, audience, desired response, publishing surface, deliverables, constraints, references, and proof of…
  2. Find the strategic tension: current belief or behavior versus the change the content must create.
  3. Produce 2-4 genuinely different concept territories, each with one governing promise and one visual mechanism.
  4. Compare them on strategic fit, distinctiveness, visual executability, extensibility, continuity risk, and production cost.
  5. Develop the selected territory into a treatment, beat spine, visual system, sound idea, final image, and production assumptions.
  6. Hand image work to $direct-image-creation, video work to $direct-video-creation, or a multi-asset system to $create-content-campaign.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2d314a. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

Develop Creative Concept loads about 595 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 103 tokens; SKILL.md has 218 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~103
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~595
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.7k

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.

description
Develop a vague content request into a reviewable creative strategy, big idea, treatment, script spine, visual system, and acceptance criteria before image or video production. Use when the user has a goal, product, theme, or audience but no concrete image, scene, campaign concept, narrative, or production-ready brief; also use to compare creative directions before building a workflow.

Develop a creative concept

Do not create generation nodes until the concept is concrete enough to evaluate. Use $operate-content-workflow to inspect existing project context and save the accepted direction in the workflow objective.

Development loop

  1. Normalize the problem: objective, audience, desired response, publishing surface, deliverables, constraints, references, and proof of success.
  2. Find the strategic tension: current belief or behavior versus the change the content must create.
  3. Produce 2-4 genuinely different concept territories, each with one governing promise and one visual mechanism.
  4. Compare them on strategic fit, distinctiveness, visual executability, extensibility, continuity risk, and production cost.
  5. Develop the selected territory into a treatment, beat spine, visual system, sound idea, final image, and production assumptions.
  6. Hand image work to $direct-image-creation, video work to $direct-video-creation, or a multi-asset system to $create-content-campaign.

Read references/creative-brief-and-strategy.md for any request. Read references/concept-generation-and-selection.md when proposing or comparing directions. Read references/treatment-script-and-beats.md before handing a concept into video or campaign production.

Output contract

Return the normalized brief, concept territories, recommendation with tradeoffs, selected treatment if a direction is chosen, non-negotiable visual anchors, unresolved production decisions, and explicit next-stage acceptance criteria. Keep a concept distinct from a prompt: prompts are downstream execution artifacts.
