Orchestrate foundation skills to transform outlines into full drafts or optimize rough drafts into high-performing newsletter issues. This is a thin orchestrator — it sequences skill invocations and manages the user review workflow, but delegates all content generation to foundation skills.
Optimize Newsletter is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the content-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/optimize-newsletter/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when asked to 'optimize this draft', 'polish this newsletter', 'write from this outline', 'improve this issue', or when transforming an existing draft or outline into a publication-ready issue. Distinct from plan-newsletter which starts from a topic — this starts from existing content.
The Optimize Newsletter Claude Code skill is built for content creators, marketers, copywriters, SEO professionals, and editorial teams. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 70,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
