# Write a good script description

_Library · 3 min read · Updated 2026-11-08 · https://lanachat.ai/guides/write-a-script-description/_

Every script has a goal: a short line under its name that says what the script is for and when to use it, such as "follow-up after two quiet days". The AI reads it while the script runs, and a short goal of up to 8 words also helps match a fan's request to the right script.

## Good and bad goals at a glance

| Good goal | Why it works |
|---|---|
| *Good night with a voice note* | Says the moment and the content |
| *Follow-up after two quiet days* | Says which fan and when |
| *First purchase, 3 photos for 500 Stars* | Says the offer and its price |

| Goal that does not help | What is missing |
|---|---|
| *Sales script* | Nothing about when, who or what |
| *Script 3, copy of the good one* | A note for you, not for the AI |
| *Sell sell sell, push hard!!!* | No moment, no fan, no offer |

## Where do I write it?

1. Open a script in **Scripts**.
2. Click the field under its name ("What this script is for…") and type the goal. It saves on its own.
3. In the list, the goal shows under the script's name, so your team sees what each script is for.

With the API and MCP, it is the `goal` field of a script.

## What a good goal says

Write it like a note to a colleague who will run the script for you, in a few plain words:

- **When**: the moment of the day, or the point in the conversation (first messages, right after a purchase, after two quiet days).
- **Which fan**: new, chatty but never bought, a buyer, a big spender.
- **What it sells**: "3 lingerie photos", or say so when the script sells nothing.

Keep it short: up to 8 words, it also works as a keyword when a fan asks for that kind of content. No fan's name or personal detail: a goal is about a kind of fan, never one person.

> Tip: Two scripts that look alike need goals that say how they differ: "Evening tease, Spanish" and "Evening tease, after a purchase".

## FAQ

### Is the goal required?

No, a script can be saved without one. A goal helps the AI and your team understand what the script is for, so write one for every script.

### Does the fan see the goal?

No. The goal is for the AI and your team. The fan only receives the steps.

### How long should the goal be?

A few words. Up to 8 words, the goal also helps the AI pick this script when a fan asks for that kind of content.
