Validated examples and methodologies accessible via the creative-knowledge MCP (auto-configured by the plugin).
Path: knowledge/carousel-references/ in the plugin directory.
Preparation workflow: before creating any carousel:
creative-knowledge MCP to list and read files in carousel-references/.docx methodologies for copywriting, hooks, and structureGEMINI_API_KEY or OPENAI_IMAGE_KEY) — if missing, redirect to /creative:setup-providerbrand.json or visual universe provided by the userAsk the user about:
brand.json if available)If brand.json exists in the project, use it as the source of truth for palette and style. Otherwise, ask.
Follow the mandatory structure documented in copywriting-rules.md.
10-slide structure:
| Slide | Role | Constraint |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | TITLE | 5-10 words, clear result or quantified promise |
| 2 | HOOK | Max 10 words, immediate tension |
| 3 | PAIN / PROBLEM | 1-2 sentences, real frustration |
| 4 | SHIFT / INSIGHT | New perspective, revelation |
| 5-8 | VALUE | Max 35 words/slide, frameworks/lists/examples |
| 9 | APPLICATION | How to apply concretely |
| 10 | CTA | Clear action, no artificial urgency |
For hooks, consult hook-strategies.md.
Each slide must have a visual consistent with the carousel's universe.
Use Nano Banana for EACH slide:
brand.jsonimport { GoogleGenAI } from "@google/genai";
import fs from "fs";
const client = new GoogleGenAI({ apiKey: process.env.GEMINI_API_KEY });
// Slide 1 — establish the style
const slide1 = await client.models.generateContent({
model: "gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview",
contents: [{ parts: [{ text: `
Carousel slide background for LinkedIn.
Topic: [TOPIC].
Style: [BRAND KEYWORDS]. Clean, modern, premium.
Color palette: [HEX CODES from brand.json].
Format: 1080x1080 (square).
Space for text overlay (40% top or center).
No text in the image. Professional quality.
` }] }],
generationConfig: { responseModalities: ["IMAGE"] }
});
// Subsequent slides — with style reference
const ref = fs.readFileSync("carousels/slide-01.png");
const slideN = await client.models.generateContent({
model: "gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview",
contents: [{
parts: [
{ inlineData: { mimeType: "image/png", data: ref.toString("base64") } },
{ text: "Create a new slide in the EXACT same visual style. Subject: [SLIDE N CONTENT]. Same color palette, same mood. 1080x1080." }
]
}],
generationConfig: { responseModalities: ["IMAGE"] }
});
Fallback if Nano Banana fails: If generation fails (quota exceeded, API error), simplify the prompt: remove hex codes, use simple style keywords, and reduce to 3 keywords max. If still failing, generate slides with a simple gradient background and document the prompts for later generation.
Visual standards:
Use the built-in plugin scripts — do NOT create generation scripts in the client project.
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/generate-carousel-html.mjs" \

--output carousels/carousel-[topic]/slides.html
The HTML is a self-contained file previewable in any browser. Colors, fonts, and layout are derived from brand.json. Each slide role (HOOK, DATA, PAIN, SHIFT, SIGNAL, ACTION, CTA) has a specific layout template.

The PPTX contains editable text (not images), with proper fonts, colors, and positioning matching the HTML version. Key features:

A good carousel must:
A carousel is not a post. It's a visual mini-course.
Each slide must:
Everything else is removed.
The brand-pipeline skill can trigger social-carousels in Phase 5, after brandbook and design system validation. The brand.json produced in Phase 2 is the source of truth for palette and style.
| Slide | Role | Content |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | TITLE | How Heinz increased sales by +18% |
| 2 | HOOK | One label changed everything. |
| 3 | PAIN | You lower prices to sell more. Your margins shrink. Your product loses value. |
| 4 | SHIFT | Heinz didn't touch the price. They changed the perception. |
| 5 | VALUE | Strategy 1: New label "grown, not made". One word shifts the positioning. |
| 6 | VALUE | Strategy 2: Transparent packaging. The consumer sees the product. Instant trust. |
| 7 | VALUE | Strategy 3: "It has to be Heinz" campaign. Identity anchoring. |
| 8 | VALUE | Result: +18% sales in 12 months. Without lowering the price by a single cent. |
| 9 | APPLICATION | Look at your product. Change the angle, not the price. Test one different word this week. |
| 10 | CTA | Save this carousel. DM me "BRAND" for the full framework. |
Before presenting the carousel, verify:
