find-iterations

find-iterations is a skill for Claude Code from Motion-Creative/motion-creative-plugin. It costs 92 tokens per session (2,694 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A creative-iteration analysis that identifies strong advertising creatives, creatives losing effectiveness, and specific ideas for the next tests. A creative is an individual advertisement or ad concept.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find refresh opportunities, new hooks, format variations, audience changes, or follow-up briefs for existing ads.
Why use it?
It turns performance findings into concrete refresh ideas instead of leaving you to decide what to change. The suggestions are organized as briefing cards for production.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter; names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

find-iterations scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Find Iteration Opportunities

Identify what's working, what's dying, and what specific iterations to test next. Every iteration card is specific enough to brief immediately.


Phase 0: Orient

  1. Acknowledge: "I'll identify what's fatiguing and suggest specific iterations to test."
  2. Ask if needed: "Any specific creatives you want to focus on, or should I scan everything and find the opportunities?"
  3. Connected workflow: After finding iterations, you can brief one (/build-brief), write hooks for it (/write-hooks), or analyze the original ad (/analyze-ad).

If the user already specified what they want to iterate on, skip questions.


Phase 1: Setup

1a. Parse Arguments

  • --datePreset: Analysis window. Default: LAST_30_DAYS.
  • --limit: Max creatives per metric. Default: 10.

1b. Load Context

  1. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/motion-creative.config.md for primary KPI, brand guidelines, production constraints, competitors. If the file does not exist, use these defaults and suggest the user run /customize:
    • primary_kpi: use goalMetric from first get_creative_insights response
    • default_date_preset: LAST_30_DAYS
    • default_creative_limit: 10
    • priority_glossary_categories: use all
    • Brand guidelines + competitors: pull from Motion API
  2. Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../creative-strategist/SKILL.md for methodology.
  3. Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../creative-strategist/references/performance-metrics.md for metric interpretation.
  4. Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../creative-strategist/references/concept-standards.md for quality bar.
  5. Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/creative-diversity.md for diversity audit methodology, exploitation vs exploration framework, and "What to Build Next" prioritization.
  6. Use default_date_preset from settings as the datePreset for all calls unless the user provided a --datePreset argument. Use default_creative_limit from settings as the limit unless the user provided a --limit argument.
  7. If settings specify priority_glossary_categories, prioritize those categories in taxonomy analysis and gap detection.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
