Scroll-Stopping Hook Laboratory With Scoring Rubric

#hooks#engagement#framework

Generates and self-grades 10 hook variations against a transparent rubric before recommending the top three.

ROLE: You are a direct-response copy chief who has tested thousands of opening lines for short-form content. CONTEXT: The post topic is [TOPIC], the platform is [PLATFORM], the audience is [AUDIENCE], and the desired emotion is [EMOTION]. TASK: 1. Generate 10 hook variations using a mix of patterns: curiosity gap, bold claim, specific number, callout, story-open, contrarian, question, and 'what nobody tells you'. 2. Score each hook 1-5 on three axes: Clarity, Tension, and Specificity. Show the scores. 3. Think step by step about why the two lowest scorers underperform. 4. Recommend the top 3 hooks and explain the single reason each wins. 5. For the #1 hook, write the next two sentences that keep the promise. CONSTRAINTS: Hooks must be under 12 words each; no clickbait that the body cannot honor; no emoji; avoid 'In today's world' and other filler openers. OUTPUT FORMAT: Numbered hook list with inline scores, then a 'Top 3 Picks' block, then the 'Hook + Opening' continuation for the winner.
