Hook library
A creator's documented collection of proven hook structures.
A hook library is a written collection of 10–20 hook structures, each annotated with niche, performance, and example.
The library exists so the creator can stop inventing hooks from scratch and start composing from a known-working set.
Top creators update their library monthly with newly tested structures and retire structures that have decayed.
Why it matters
Building and maintaining a hook library is the single best leverage move available to a creator who is past the initial discovery phase.

- 02Tag each entry with hook IQ and the videos that used it.
- 03Retire structures whose IQ falls below a threshold.
