Audit and rewrite a Threads (Meta) profile end-to-end for 2026: profile photo, name with a searchable keyword, @handle, bio (150 chars, warm and specific), link, pinned post, and the connected-Instagram cross-pull that feeds Threads discovery. Triggers on "review my Threads profile", "fix my Threads bio", "what to pin on Threads", and "profile audit". Turns a default profile into one that converts visitors into followers. Not for writing posts (use threads-post-writer).

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by sergebulaev on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Threads Profile Optimizer AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/sergebulaev/threads-skills/tree/main/skills/threads-profile-optimizer
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/sergebulaev/threads-skills.git /tmp/threads-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/threads-skills/skills/threads-profile-optimizer .claude/skills/threads-profile-optimizer
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Threads Profile Optimizer in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Threads Profile Optimizer on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Threads Profile Optimizer is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Threads Profile Optimizer

Audit the parts of a Threads profile (photo, name, @handle, bio, link, pinned post) against what actually converts a profile-visitor into a follower in 2026, then rewrite each part that needs it. On Threads the whole decision happens in a couple of seconds on the profile card: name, bio, pinned post. Threads runs warmer than X, so the bio should read like a person, not a company. And because a Threads account is stapled to an Instagram account, a strong Instagram presence feeds Threads discovery, so this skill checks that cross-pull too.

When to use

  • User pastes their Threads profile or handle and asks for an audit
  • "Fix my Threads bio", "rewrite my bio", "what should I pin on Threads"
  • User is starting to post seriously and wants the profile to match
  • Any of: "review my Threads profile", "profile audit", "what to pin on Threads"

Not for writing posts (use threads-post-writer) or auditing a single draft (use threads-humanizer).

Input

  • Profile URL / handle (or a screenshot of the profile card)
  • Goal: grow a following / drive signups / land clients / build authority. The bio close and the pinned post change by goal.
  • Optional: their best-performing posts, to pick a pin
  • Optional: the connected Instagram handle, to score the cross-pull

Output

  1. Scorecard (each part: pass / needs-work / fail)
  2. Priority fixes ranked by impact (bio and pin first, always)
  3. Before -> After rewrites for each failing part
  4. Pinned-post pick with the reason
  5. Instagram cross-pull note: what to fix on IG so it feeds Threads

Steps

  1. Intake. Collect the profile state, the goal, and the connected Instagram handle if they want the cross-pull scored.
  2. Score each part against the scorecard below.
  3. Rewrite the bio (150 chars). Shape: who you help or what you post about + one specific + a warm human line. Lead with the value, not a job title. Write it like you talk. No "I help X do Y" cliche opener unless the rest is specific. Fit inside 150 chars, tight wins.
  4. Fix the name. Real name plus a searchable keyword people actually type (e.g. "Sam Rivera, AI agents"). The name field is searchable; the @handle mostly is not, so the keyword belongs in the name.
  5. Check the @handle. Short, memorable, matches the Instagram handle if possible (Threads and Instagram share the handle, so consistency helps discovery). No stray numbers or underscores if avoidable.
  6. Pick the pinned post. Their single best proof of what a new follower gets: a top post, a mini-thread that teaches, or a clear offer matched to the goal. You can pin up to 3 on Threads; lead with the strongest. An empty pin slot wastes the most valuable real estate on the card.
  7. Set the link. One link matched to the goal (newsletter / offer / site). If they need several, a single link-hub, not a bare homepage.
  8. Photo check. Clear face, fills the frame, recent, high contrast. It renders as a small circle for most viewers, so detail is wasted but contrast is not. Match the Instagram photo so the two profiles read as one person.
  9. Score the Instagram cross-pull. A connected, active Instagram with an aligned name, photo, and bio feeds Threads suggestions and "who to follow". Flag a dormant or mismatched IG as a discovery leak, and name the one fix.
  10. Deliver the before/after diff plus the two-second test: read only name, bio, and pin, and ask "would a stranger follow from this alone?"

Scorecard

#PartPass criteria (2026)
1PhotoClear face filling the frame, recent, high contrast at small size, matches the Instagram photo
2NameReal name plus a searchable keyword, reads human, inside the name limit
3@handleShort, memorable, matches the Instagram handle, no stray numbers/underscores
4BioValue plus one specific plus a warm line, inside 150 chars, no cliche opener, leads with what a follower gets
5LinkOne, goal-matched; a link-hub if several are needed
6Pinned postPresent (up to 3), and the lead pin is their best proof matched to the goal, not a random recent post
7Instagram cross-pullConnected IG is active, with an aligned name, photo, and bio, so it feeds Threads discovery

Hard rules

Global voice rules: see root SKILL.md Voice rules. Additional skill-specific rules:

  • The bio must pass the two-second test: a stranger reading only name plus bio plus pin should know who this is for and want to follow.
  • Lead the bio with the reader's benefit, not the user's job title.
  • Keep the bio warm and human, not corporate. It reads like the person talks.
  • One specific or one number in the bio where the account allows it.
  • Keep every rewrite inside the platform limits (bio 150 chars). Never ship a truncated bio.
  • Treat the connected Instagram as part of the profile, not a separate thing. A dormant or mismatched IG is a discovery leak worth flagging.
  • At most one em dash in the bio (a short bio rarely needs one). No "leverage", "fundamentally", "game-changer".

Why use Threads Profile Optimizer on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Threads Profile Optimizer is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Threads Profile Optimizer in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/sergebulaev/threads-skills/tree/main/skills/threads-profile-optimizer. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Threads Profile Optimizer?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Threads Profile Optimizer?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Threads Profile Optimizer with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Threads Profile Optimizer AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by sergebulaev under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
