Individual skill
extract-the-hook
Pull the openings out of posts that worked and name the shape underneath, so you reuse a pattern rather than copying a line. Use when someone wants a hook library, asks what makes an opening work, has collected posts they admire, or keeps writing the same first line. Do not reproduce anyone else's wording, and do not attach performance figures to a pattern.

# Extract the hook
People collect hooks as sentences. That is why the collection stops working
after a week: the sentence belongs to the post it opened, and pasted onto a
different subject it reads as a costume.
What transfers is the move underneath. This skill is about getting from a line
you liked to a shape you can fill with your own material.
## Step 1: gather openings, not posts
Take the first line or two from each post and nothing else. Working from whole
posts drags the subject along with the structure, and the subject is the part
that does not transfer.
