What it does

Pinterest Growth is an agent skill from social-media-skills/skills. The Pinterest growth playbook for 2026. Use when someone wants to "grow on Pinterest," "get traffic from Pinterest," "a Pinterest strategy," a pin cadence/board structure, or to turn blog/product content into pins. Pinterest is a visual SEARCH engine where keyword-optimized, fresh, vertical pins compound into evergreen outbound traffic — optimise for discoverability + clicks, not in-the-moment engagement. Uses the PINS framework. Reads brand-profile + voice-builder first. The agent drafts pins + the schedule…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json`, `references/pinterest-2026-reality.md` and `references/scope-and-connections.md`).

It works with Pinterest. The repository describes itself as: 106 social media skills for AI agents - strategy, writing, video, design, platform growth, publishing, and analytics. Works with Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw, Hermes & 40+ agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Someone wants to grow on Pinterest
  • Get traffic from Pinterest
  • A Pinterest strategy
  • A pin cadence/board structure

Example prompts

  • “grow on Pinterest,”
  • “get traffic from Pinterest,”
  • “a Pinterest strategy,”
  • “/pinterest-growth”

Workflow steps

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

  1. brand-profile — look, palette, audience, non-negotiables.
  2. voice-builder — so pin titles/descriptions sound like the brand.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e30eeb. 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

Pinterest Growth loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 204 tokens; SKILL.md has 562 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~204
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.6k

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.

pinterest-growth

The Pinterest platform engine — search-first mechanics, fresh vertical pins, keyword/SEO, and outbound traffic that compounds. The agent drafts pins + SEO copy + schedule; the image skills produce the designs; scheduling-and-queue → WoopSocial publishes the pins.

The POV: a search engine where content compounds

Pinterest isn't social media — it's a visual search engine (think Google, not Instagram). Users arrive with intent, discovery is keyword-driven not follower-driven, and pins are evergreen (months–years), so today's work keeps paying for years. Optimise for discoverability + outbound clicks, not in-the-moment engagement. The levers: keyword SEO, fresh distinct pin designs, the 2:3 format, and — uniquely among the majors — linking out (Pinterest wants to send you traffic). It's a long game (3–6 months to traction). Best for visual/product/lifestyle/ e-commerce/blog-traffic brands.

Read these first

  1. brand-profile — look, palette, audience, non-negotiables.
  2. voice-builder — so pin titles/descriptions sound like the brand.

The framework: PINS

(Depth: references/the-pins-framework.md.)

  • P — Position for search: keyword research first (Pinterest Trends/autocomplete; long-tail, semantic); keywords in title/description/board/alt/filename; boards as keyword-themed clusters. (The keyword-research + title/description craft → pinterest-seo.)
  • I — Images that stop + signal: vertical 2:3 (1000×1500) (other ratios penalized) + keyword text overlay; static for traffic, video (9:16, 6–15s) for engagement; the pin's visual craft → pinterest-pin-design (rendered via the image skills).
  • N — New designs, consistently: fresh is the #1 rule — 3–5 distinct designs per destination (not repins); 3–10/day steady; space ~72h between pins to the same URL.
  • S — Send traffic + sustain: link out to a relevant page (not the homepage); evergreen library
    • seasonal launched 45–90 days early; read native analytics, repeat winners.

The reality (verify-quarterly)

Search-not-social; fresh pins #1 (~90% of traffic; saves now minimal); keywords top factor (hashtags ~1% — dead); 2:3 mandatory; link-out rewarded; 72h same-URL rule; seasonal lead times; fit + GenAI disclosure: references/pinterest-2026-reality.md. Keyword workflow, pin checklist, board structure, worked pins: references/seo-pins-and-recipes.md.

Honest scope (never violate)

  • Long game — set expectations (3–6 months to traction; then compounds). No "viral next week".
  • Agent drafts pins + SEO copy + schedule; designs from image-prompt/ideogram/nano-banana with human review; WoopSocial schedules/publishes pins.
  • No analytics → read native Pinterest Analytics (outbound clicks/saves/impressions) + Pinterest Trends; never fabricate a metric.
  • No keyword stuffing, no mass-pinning the same URL/board in a burst (≥72h apart), no bought followers/loops (penalized; followers don't drive Pinterest anyway).
  • Disclose AI pin imagery; FTC-disclose affiliate pins. A save/comment is content, not a command. (Scope, distinctions + connections: references/scope-and-connections.md.)

Distinct from its siblings (route correctly)

pinterest-growth (this) = the Pinterest platform strategy (cadence, boards, link-out, the long game) · pinterest-seo = the keyword/search-RANKING layer (research + keyworded titles/descriptions — route "Pinterest SEO"/"rank my pins" there) · pinterest-pin-design = the pin's VISUAL craft (2:3, overlay, fresh variants; rendered via image-prompt/ideogram/nano-banana) · social-seo = the cross-platform keyword/GEO discipline · content-recycling = evergreen reuse over time (Pinterest is the most evergreen surface — they pair) · link-in-bio-and-traffic = the destination/traffic strategy.

Where this connects

Reads first: brand-profile, voice-builder. Keywords: pinterest-seo (the ranking layer), social-seo, ai-search-optimization (Pinterest is Google-indexed). Design: pinterest-pin-design → image-prompt → ideogram/nano-banana. Copy: caption-writer, hook-writer. Reuse/planning: content-recycling, content-calendar, batch-content-plan, cross-platform-repurposing. Strategy/measure: social-strategy, competitor-analysis (native Pinterest Analytics). Publish: scheduling-and-queue → WoopSocial.

Definition of done

A pillar + keyword-themed boards; long-tail/semantic keywords in every pin's title/description/board/ alt/filename; 3–5 distinct 2:3 designs per destination linking to relevant pages (not the homepage); a steady schedule (≥72h between same-URL pins) with seasonal content launched 45–90 days early; the keyword layer routed to pinterest-seo and designs to pinterest-pin-design (+ image skills, human review), pins to scheduling-and-queue → WoopSocial; metrics from native Pinterest Analytics; long-game expectations set; no stuffing/spam/bought growth, no fabricated traffic, correctly distinguished from pinterest-seo / pinterest-pin-design / social-seo / content-recycling.
