## Limitations

- It does not guarantee virality or predict platform algorithm outcomes.
- It does not fetch live platform data or inspect real accounts by itself.
- It needs a niche, audience, topic, or sample idea for the strongest output.
- It focuses on ideation, not full scripting, editing, posting, or analytics reporting.

## Best Practices

- Provide a clear niche, target audience, platform, and posting cadence before asking for large batches.
- Generate first, then run a separate filter pass to rank and cut weak ideas.
- Save top audience comments, searches, and outlier examples before mining for new ideas.

## Anti Patterns

- Asking for generic ideas without a niche, audience, or pillar constraint.
- Copying a competitor video surface without changing the mechanism for your audience.
- Keeping a large idea backlog without statuses, expiry rules, or production decisions.

## Security Audit

- - Safe to publish: true
- - Audited at: 2026-06-28T09:13:17.797\+00:00
- - Summary: Static analysis flagged many backtick, weak-crypto, seed phrase, system reconnaissance, and aggregate heuristic hits. Manual review found markdown examples and content strategy terminology, not executable code, crypto handling, credential access, or prompt injection. The only confirmed concern is a passive promotional link to an external commercial site.
