Prompt-by-prompt rewrite

For each prompt, draft 2 alternatives rooted in concrete specifics from my bio.✓ 복사됨

Audit my photo lineup — which tells the viewer something specific, which is filler?✓ 복사됨

→ Per-photo rationale tied to research, not opinion

결과: A profile that shows the real you more clearly — not a different persona.

함정

You try to borrow a specific from someone else — Skill flags inauthenticity — don't claim hobbies you don't have, they fail on first conversation

👤 People 80% happy with their profile ⏱ ~10 min beginner

언제 쓸까: One specific prompt answer feels flat and generic.

조합

hinge-profile-optimizer-skill

This is a personal/private skill — avoid combining with tools that log or share externally

도구

이 MCP가 노출하는 것

도구	입력	언제 호출
self_intake	~300 words about you + current profile	Start of overhaul
prompt_rewrite	prompt + your real material	Any prompt that's not landing
photo_audit	photo descriptions or images	Lineup feels generic

비용 및 제한

운영 비용

API 쿼터: None
호출당 토큰: Small — profile data is compact
금액: Free — skills are local files
팁: One pass is usually enough; iterate only where you genuinely changed material.

보안

권한, 시크릿, 파급범위

자격 증명 저장: No credentials — pure prompts

데이터 외부 송신: None — your profile data stays in your Claude session

This is personal data; don't share session transcripts publicly.
The skill explicitly discourages fabrication — using it to build a fake persona misses the point.

문제 해결

자주 발생하는 오류와 해결

Skill not invoked — Claude writes cheesy pickup lines

Reference 'hinge-profile-optimizer' explicitly.

확인: ls ~/.claude/skills/hinge-profile-optimizer/SKILL.md

SKILL.md frontmatter wrong

Re-clone; description drives activation.

확인: head ~/.claude/skills/hinge-profile-optimizer/SKILL.md

Wrong trigger keywords — generic dating advice appears

Say 'use the Hinge optimizer skill on this prompt'.

대안

hinge-profile-optimizer 다른 것과 비교

대안	언제 쓰나	단점/장점
Vanilla Claude advice	You want quick takes without the 45-minute process	Usually generic; misses the authenticity framework
Professional photographer + coach	You want human judgement and photo work	Costs significant money; skill is free
