SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Creators often run out of content ideas, pick topics with low traffic ceilings, or chase trends that do not fit their positioning. This Skill provides a structured pipeline that inventories topic sources, matches them to audience needs, estimates traffic potential, and validates topics before committing to production. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Topic Source Inventory: Mines personal experiences and external world events to build a raw topic pool of at least 10 candidates. - Demand Matching and Traffic Estimation: Classifies topics by three audience needs (curiosity, identification, learning) and estimates empathy reach to predict traffic ceilings. - Dual Validation Gates: Applies a timeless-resonance test and a two-gate trending-topic check before finalizing a ranked shortlist of 3-5 topics. - Use Case: A creator says "I don't know what to film next." The Skill walks through source inventory, demand matching, traffic estimation, and validation, then presents a ranked shortlist with a recommendation while leaving the final choice to the user. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to use the topic-engine skill to help you find and validate content topics for your short-video account, providing your background and target audience.

Frequently Asked Questions about topic-engine

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find content topic ideas when I have creator's block?

Inventory two source pools: personal assets (things 99.9% of people have not done, extreme strengths or weaknesses, deep expertise) and external events that triggered anger, worry, or conflict. Merge and deduplicate both pools into at least 10 raw topic candidates.

How can I predict whether a video topic will go viral?

Estimate the empathy reach by identifying which population group the topic connects with and its rough size, then place the topic on an emotional hierarchy from national concerns down to personal romance. Topics linking more people have higher traffic ceilings.

Should I chase a trending topic for my content account?

Apply a two-gate check before following any trend: whether space remains (fewer than about 5-10 major creators have covered it) and whether it fits your positioning. Failing either gate means skipping the trend or waiting for a second wave.

What is the difference between topic selection and account positioning?

Topic selection finds and validates individual content ideas, while account positioning defines your overall niche and persona. This Skill handles topic selection only; positioning and track selection belong to a separate account-launch workflow.

When should I not use a structured topic pipeline?

Skip this pipeline if you already have a confirmed topic and need script writing, or if you create purely personal expression without traffic or monetization goals. It is designed for creators optimizing for audience reach and engagement.
