Mass Suggestion

Mass Suggestion

Craft a message that nudges an entire audience toward a single action.

What This Skill Does

Mass Suggestion plants the same idea in many minds simultaneously. The real-world version is broadcast persuasion: campaign announcements, company-wide emails, product launch copy, or public statements designed to move a large group in a specific direction. The scale amplifies both impact and risk. In this grimoire, Mass Suggestion is treated as a metaphorical spell with a shipping-now delivery profile. Canonical reference input: Mass Suggestion (spell).

When To Use

• You need to draft a company announcement, campaign message, or broadcast communication that drives a specific collective action.
• The audience is large enough that individual persuasion is impractical — you need one message that works at scale.

Prerequisites

• No extra runtime dependencies beyond Hermes Agent and the normal toolset for this session.

Procedure

1. Restate the target, the success condition, and any no-touch boundaries before taking action.
2. Define the single action you want the audience to take.
3. Identify the audience segments and what motivates each one.
4. Draft the message to work for the broadest segment while not alienating others.
5. Apply the manipulation audit at amplified scrutiny: at scale, even mild dark patterns cause real harm.
6. Return the message with deployment guidance and a note on which audience segments it may not reach.
7. Package the result as the deliverables below, with confidence, assumptions, and unresolved risk called out explicitly.

Deliverables

• The broadcast message, optimized for the target audience and action.
• Segment analysis: which groups will respond and which will not.
• An amplified manipulation audit: risks that emerge specifically because of scale.

Pitfalls / Guardrails

• Keep the metaphor anchored to a real mechanism instead of drifting into lore.
• Scaled influence requires scaled scrutiny. A nudge that is harmless one-on-one can become coercive when broadcast to thousands.
• Refuse propaganda patterns: emotional manipulation without factual basis, manufactured consensus, or suppression of dissent.

Verification

• Check that the result includes every deliverable promised above.
• Check that confirmed facts, assumptions, and inferences are visibly separated.
• Check that the metaphor still maps cleanly to a real operational mechanism.

Example Invocation
