SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Creating SEO-optimized, structured blog outlines requires manual SERP review, heading extraction, and planning for word counts, visuals, FAQs, and internal links; this Skill automates that discovery and produces a writer-ready skeleton. It reduces time spent researching competitors and deciding section targets so writers and SEOs can move straight to drafting or hand off to /blog write.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • SERP Analysis: Scan the top 5 results to extract H2/H3 structures, content length, FAQs, and visual elements.
  • Structured Outlines: Produce 6-8 H2 sections (60-70% in question format), H3 subsections where needed, answer-first prompts, and section-level word-count targets.
  • Visual & FAQ Planning: Recommend chart types, image placement, and 3-5 FAQ items based on People Also Ask and SERP patterns.
  • Competitive Gap Notes & Linking: Highlight content gaps, unique angle opportunities, and internal linking zones for on-page SEO.
  • Save & Integrate: Persist outlines to outlines/[slug]-outline.md so they are ready for downstream consumption by writing workflows.
  • Use Case: SEO writers and content strategists who need repeatable, SERP-informed skeletons to speed drafting, editorial calendars, or brief generation.
