-2. **Jump to that channel's section** below and apply all rules exactly — do not rely on memory.
-3. **Never mix** markdown conventions across channels.
-4. If the channel is ambiguous, ask once: "Is this for [Channel A] or [Channel B]?"
-5. Produce the formatted output directly as the deliverable.

+## § Repurposing Modes
+
+Use these modes when the input is longer than the requested output, such as an
+article, memo, transcript, report, rough draft, or notes.
+
+### `strict-format`
+Preserve the source wording and argument as much as the channel allows. Use this
+when the user says "format only", "do not rewrite", "preserve wording", or when
+legal/compliance precision matters. You may adjust line breaks, headings,
+emphasis, bullet symbols, and channel-specific structure, but do not add new
+claims or reframe the argument.
+
+### `single-channel`
+Repurpose the source into one target channel. Extract the usable argument,
+choose the strongest hook for that channel, compress or expand to the channel's
+native length, and produce one finished output.
+
+### `social-pack`
+Repurpose one source into a coordinated set of social outputs:
+- LinkedIn thought-leadership post
+- Short LinkedIn announcement or teaser variant
+- Twitter/X single post
+- Twitter/X thread
+- Slack/Teams internal share
+
+### `campaign-pack`
+Repurpose one source into a small campaign kit:
+- Everything in `social-pack`
+- External email intro/blurb
+- Web excerpt
+- SEO meta title and meta description
+- 3 CTA variants
+
+### `exec-pack`
+Repurpose one source for internal leadership alignment:
+- Internal email summary
+- Slack/Teams update
+- Executive-summary paragraph
+- 3 talking points
+- Decision/ask line if the source supports one
+
+### `launch-pack`
+Repurpose one source for an announcement:
+- LinkedIn launch post
+- Twitter/X launch post
+- Slack/Teams launch note
+- External email blurb
+- Web hero headline/subheadline/CTA
+- 3 CTA variants
+
+### Long-Source Extraction Checklist
+Before writing from a long source, identify:
+- **Thesis:** the central argument or announcement
+- **Audience:** who this is for
+- **Proof:** facts, examples, data, names, dates, or quotes explicitly present
+- **CTA:** what the reader should do next
+- **Tone:** formal, conversational, punchy, executive, regenerative, etc.
+- **Constraints:** length, compliance, brand voice, channel quirks
+- **Gaps:** missing proof, missing CTA, unsupported claims, unclear audience
+
+### Source-Fidelity Rules
+- Do not invent statistics, dates, quotes, citations, partnerships, revenue,
+  legal claims, customer names, or outcomes.
+- Do not upgrade tentative language into certainty.
+- Do not turn illustrative examples into facts.
+- Preserve caveats when they affect meaning.
+- If a stronger hook needs a proof point the source does not provide, write a
+  proof-neutral hook instead.
+- When assumptions are material, include a short "Assumptions:" line before the
+  deliverable rather than burying uncertainty in polished copy.
+

+
+## § Content Repurposing Packs
+
+When a pack is requested, label each output clearly and make every item
+channel-native. A pack is not a generic summary repeated in several lengths.
+
+### `social-pack` Output Shape
+1. `LinkedIn thought-leadership post` — 900-1300 characters, hook-first, white space, Unicode emphasis only when useful, up to 3 hashtags.
+2. `LinkedIn short variant` — 400-700 characters, announcement or teaser style.
+3. `Twitter/X single post` — 265 characters or fewer unless the user asks otherwise.
+4. `Twitter/X thread` — 5-7 tweets, each self-contained and below 280 characters.
+5. `Slack/Teams internal share` — 3-6 lines, direct, with a clear FYI/action/decision framing.
+
+### `campaign-pack` Output Shape
+1. Full `social-pack`
+2. `External email intro` — subject line plus 80-150 word blurb with one ask
+3. `Web excerpt` — 80-120 words, scannable, CTA-ready
+4. `Meta title` — 50-60 characters
+5. `Meta description` — 150-160 characters
+6. `CTA variants` — 3 verb-led CTAs
+
+### `exec-pack` Output Shape
+1. `Internal email summary` — subject plus 6-12 lines
+2. `Slack/Teams update` — 3-5 lines
+3. `Executive summary paragraph` — 100-150 words
+4. `Talking points` — 3 concise bullets/fragments
+5. `Decision or ask` — one line, only if supported by source
+
+### `launch-pack` Output Shape
+1. `LinkedIn launch post` — announcement structure
+2. `Twitter/X launch post` — single post
+3. `Slack/Teams launch note` — internal update
+4. `External email blurb` — subject plus short body
+5. `Web hero` — headline, subheadline, CTA
+6. `CTA variants` — 3 options
+
+### Pack Quality Rules
+- Vary hooks by channel; do not repeat the same first sentence everywhere.
+- Keep the source thesis consistent across all outputs.
+- Adapt CTA strength to the channel: softer on thought leadership, direct in
+  email/web, concise in Slack.
+- Use channel-specific formatting rules from the sections below.
+- If source proof is weak, use curiosity and framing instead of inflated claims.
