Pick the skills you want. For each, copy the folder into your project's .claude/skills/ directory:
git clone https://github.com/robpalmer99/claude-code-copywriting-skills.git
cp -r claude-code-copywriting-skills/direct-response-copy /path/to/your/project/.claude/skills/
cp -r claude-code-copywriting-skills/ad-copy /path/to/your/project/.claude/skills/
# ...etcOr copy individual SKILL.md files (and their references/ folders, where present) by hand.
Claude Code auto-detects skills from .claude/skills/. The description in each SKILL.md's YAML frontmatter triggers the skill automatically when you ask Claude something matching its purpose.
The ad-copy and compliance-checker skills also include reference files (references/meta-ad-specs.md and references/trigger-words.md). Keep those alongside SKILL.md inside each skill folder — the skill reads them automatically.
These skills are designed to chain:
- Draft with
direct-response-copy(long-form) orad-copy(Meta ads) orlanding-page-copy(bridge pages) - Review with
copychief— line-level feedback with specific rewrites - Comply with
