/landing-gen

Generate landing page content from a project's PRD. Produces hero section, features, social proof, CTA, SEO meta tags, and A/B headline variants. If astro-static stack detected, can scaffold actual page files.

MCP Tools (use if available)

• kb_search(query) — find related methodology (conversion, copywriting)
• project_info(name) — get project stack and details
• web_search(query) — competitor landing analysis

If MCP tools are not available, fall back to Glob + Grep + Read.

Steps

1. Parse project from $ARGUMENTS.

   • Read PRD, README, or research.md for product info.
   • If empty: ask via AskUserQuestion.

2. Detect stack:

   • Check for astro.config.* → astro-static (can scaffold page)
   • Check for next.config.* → Next.js (can scaffold route)
   • Otherwise: generate content-only markdown

3. Extract landing inputs from PRD/README:

   • Problem: 1 sentence pain statement
   • Solution: 1 sentence product description
   • ICP: Target user persona
   • Features: Top 3-4 differentiating features with descriptions
   • Competitors: From research.md (if exists) — for positioning
   • Pricing: If available

4. Competitor landing analysis (optional, if MCP/WebSearch available):

   • Search for top 3 competitor landing pages
   • Note: headline patterns, CTA language, social proof types
   • Identify positioning gaps

5. Forced reasoning — conversion strategy: Before generating, write out:

   • Primary conversion: What's the ONE action? (sign up / download / buy)
   • Objections: Top 3 reasons someone wouldn't convert
   • Trust signals: What overcomes each objection?
   • Above the fold: Problem + Solution + CTA — nothing else

6. Generate landing content:

   6a. Hero Section

   • Headline: Problem-focused, benefit-driven (8-12 words)
   • Subheadline: How the product solves it (15-25 words)
   • CTA button: Action verb + outcome ("Start Free Trial", "Download Now")
   • Visual: Describe what image/screenshot/demo should be shown

   6b. A/B Headline Variants (5 options)

   Generate 5 distinct headline approaches:

   1. Pain-focused: "Tired of {problem}?"
   2. Benefit-focused: "{Outcome} without {hassle}"
   3. Curiosity: "The {adjective} way to {action}"
   4. Social proof: "Join {N}+ {users} who {outcome}"
   5. Direct: "{Product}: {one-line value prop}"

   6c. Features Section (3-4 features)

   For each feature:

   • Icon suggestion (emoji or icon name)
   • Feature title (3-5 words)
   • Feature description (1-2 sentences)
   • Benefit framing (what user gains, not what product does)

   6d. Social Proof Section

   • Placeholder for testimonials (template with name, role, quote)
   • Metrics placeholders ("X+ users", "Y% faster", "Z countries")
   • Trust badges placeholder (App Store rating, awards, press)

   6e. CTA Section

   • Repeat headline (or variation)
   • CTA button (same as hero)
   • Risk reducer ("Free forever" / "No credit card" / "Cancel anytime")

   6f. SEO Meta Tags

   <title>{title — 50-60 chars}</title>
   <meta name="description" content="{description — 150-160 chars}">
   <meta property="og:title" content="{og title}">
   <meta property="og:description" content="{og description}">
   <meta property="og:image" content="{suggest image dimensions 1200x630}">
   <meta property="og:type" content="website">
   

7. Write output:

   If astro-static detected: scaffold page at src/pages/index.astro or new route.

   Otherwise: write to docs/landing-content.md:

   # Landing Page Content: {Project Name}
   
   **Generated:** {YYYY-MM-DD}
   **Primary CTA:** {action}
   **Target ICP:** {persona}
   
   ## Hero
   **Headline:** {headline}
   **Subheadline:** {subheadline}
   **CTA:** {button text}
   **Visual:** {description}
   
   ## A/B Headlines
   1. {variant 1}
   2. {variant 2}
   3. {variant 3}
   4. {variant 4}
   5. {variant 5}
   
   ## Features
   {features with icons and descriptions}
   
   ## Social Proof
   {templates and placeholders}
   
   ## Final CTA
   {closing section}
   
   ## SEO Meta Tags
   {html meta tags}
   
   ---
   *Generated by /landing-gen. Fill in social proof, add visuals, then publish.*
   

8. Output summary — headline, CTA, and suggested next steps.

Notes

• Headline should be testable — run A/B with 2-3 variants
• "Above the fold" = hero only — don't overload
• Social proof is placeholder — fill with real data as it comes
• For fake-door tests: hero + CTA + email capture is enough (2-hour launch)
• Works with /seo-audit — generate content, then audit the deployed page

Common Issues

No PRD or product info found

Cause: Project lacks docs/prd.md or README with product description. Fix: Run /validate to generate PRD first, or provide a README with problem/solution/features.

Headlines too generic

Cause: Weak problem statement or missing competitor differentiation. Fix: Add research.md with competitive analysis. Specific pain points produce specific headlines.

Stack not detected for page scaffolding

Cause: No astro.config.* or next.config.* found. Fix: Skill outputs content-only markdown by default. To get actual page files, ensure the project uses astro-static or nextjs-supabase stack.
