Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00133 | $0.02403 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00067 | $0.01202 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00027 | $0.00481 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00240 |
Grade A, and why
going-viral 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 12d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 137 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Going Viral — the strategy, not just the hook
Most "go viral" advice is tactics with no spine. This is the spine: virality is engineered, not lucky. Pick ONE goal → manufacture the emotion that drives it → build the hook + funnel around it. The reel manufactures the feeling; the caption/DM delivers the value.
Distilled from 160+ analysed viral reels + the research consensus (Berger & Milkman: sharing is driven by high arousal, not positivity; ~68% of people share to signal who they are; saves = a promise to future-self; open loops must stay open past the 7–15s checkpoint).
When to use
The user has an idea (or a flopping account) and wants reach/saves/shares/followers/leads — not just a better opening line. (For only the first 1–3 seconds, use viral-hook-writer. To run the whole pipeline, use content-factory.)
Step 1 — Pick ONE goal (it dictates everything)
| GOAL | Emotion to trigger | The mechanic | How to build it |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAVE | relief + fear-of-forgetting | a finite numbered system + "future-you will need this" | a list/steps that assembles on one frame → "save so you don't lose it"; put the depth in the caption |
| SHARE | awe / indignation / status | meta self-proving · "you're being ripped off" · "almost nobody knows" | open on the finished result then reveal how · "$5K agency → free" · scarcity + "send this to someone still doing it the hard way" |
| FOLLOW | FOMO ("don't fall behind") + aspiration | anti-falling-behind framing + result-first proof + a consistent brand | show the gap (manual you vs automated them), a real climbing number, a recognizable look every post |
| LEAD | greed + terminal curiosity | a named free deliverable withheld behind a keyword | show the value, withhold the thing → "comment WORD" → instant honest DM |
Pick the goal before scripting. Optimize for identity signal, not raw value — a share has to make the sender look smart/early/right. High-arousal beats positive: awe, anger, FOMO over calm tips.
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.

going-viral is a skill published in the GitHub repository Ootto-AI/claude-content-skills (30 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 133 tokens to every session and 2,403 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
