Overview

Components: Popup / Modal Skill is an open-source Agent Skill from the kostja94/marketing-skills collection (MIT). It teaches AI coding agents focused marketing / SEO workflows so they can produce production-ready guidance instead of generic advice.

Guides popup and modal design for conversion. Well-designed popups can achieve up to 25% conversion; poorly timed or intrusive ones hurt UX and SEO. Google penalizes intrusive mobile popups.

Identify: 1. Goal: Newsletter, discount, lead magnet, demo 2. Trigger: Time delay, scroll %, exit intent, click 3. Mobile: Critical; smaller screens = easier to interrupt

Official skill id: popup-generator. Source path: skills/components/conversion/popup.
