Output: a timeline, one row per second or short time range.

## Phase 3 — Open loops and where to place them

Role: you are a scriptwriter whose specialty is watch time.

Video topic: [video topic]
Video length: [length in seconds] seconds

Task: write 5 open loops for this video.

## Phase 4 — Pattern interrupts for faceless videos

Role: you are an editor and scriptwriter for YouTube Shorts.

- one pattern interrupt every 10-15 seconds
- the best moment to place a CTA
- an ending that loops back smoothly into the opening line

## Phase 6 — Three rewrites of the first 3 seconds

My current intro: [paste your intro]

Task: rewrite this intro in 3 versions, each using a different format:
1. Curiosity gap
2. Bold claim + proof
3. "You're doing this wrong"

Then tell me which version will perform best, and explain why.

If the intro is missing, ask me to paste it before you start.

## Phase 7 — Ruthless script tightening

Role: you are a YouTube Shorts editor who cuts without mercy.

My script: [paste your script]

Task:
- remove every sentence the script does not need
- flag the parts where viewers are likely to leave

If the script is missing, ask me to paste it before you start.

## Phase 8 — Re-grab moments at drop-off points

Video topic: [video topic]
Video length: [length in seconds] seconds

Context: viewers tend to leave at two points, around seconds 5-8 and in the middle of the video.

Task: write 5 moments that win back attention, to be placed at these drop-off points. Each moment must be:
- fast
- striking
- impossible to scroll past

For each one, say which drop-off point it targets.

## Phase 9 — Endings that drive rewatches

Video topic: [video topic]

Task: write 3 alternative endings designed to raise the rewatch rate:
1. one that loops smoothly back to the start
2. one with a shocking finale
3. one that ends on a question that gets people commenting

Then say which of the three will bring the most views.

## Phase 10 — Scored script audit

- potential for rewatches

Output: a score out of 100, followed by the precise list of what I must fix.

If the script is missing, ask me to paste it before you start.
