Good stories die in bad pitches. This skill covers pitch structure, angle development, and outlet-specific formatting.
Story Pitch is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the storytelling sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/story-pitch/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when pitching to editors, preparing query letters, or developing story angles. Includes templates for daily news, features, investigations, op-eds, and freelance queries.
The Story Pitch 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 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
