Content Production Workflow

This is mandatory. No content ships without review.

Core Rule

Every content task follows: Produce → Review → Revise → Deliver

Never deliver a first draft directly. Always spawn a review agent.

Workflow

Step 1: Produce

Write the content using the appropriate skill:

• SEO blog articles → seo-blog-writer/SKILL.md (fully automated: keyword research → competitive analysis → write → QA → delivery package). Mandatory dependency: heavy-task-protocol/SKILL.md — load it first for checkpoint/resume safety.
• Marketing copy → your copywriting skill
• Comparison pages → your competitor-alternatives skill
• Social posts → your social-content skill
• Email sequences → your email-sequence skill
• Landing pages → your page-cro skill + copywriting skill
• Release notes → your release-notes skill

Step 2: Auto-Review

Immediately after producing, spawn a review sub-agent with the appropriate review profile below. Use a cheaper model (sonnet) for review to save cost.

Step 3: Revise

Apply review feedback. If critical issues found (broken links, factual errors, brand violations), fix and re-review.

Step 4: Deliver

Only after review passes, deliver to the user.

Step 5: Post-Publish Verification (separate session after publishing)

This step runs in a NEW session after the article is live. Do not chain it into the same writing session — context would be too large and external dependencies (seomator, PSI API) add failure risk.

Trigger: user confirms the article is published and provides the live URL.

bash
python3 seo-geo-qa/scripts/post_publish_check.py https://your-domain.com/blog/your-slug

# With Core Web Vitals (if PSI API key is configured)
python3 seo-geo-qa/scripts/post_publish_check.py https://your-domain.com/blog/your-slug --psi-key YOUR_KEY

Verdict:

• PASS — no action needed
• WARN — review seomator findings, fix high-priority items
• FAIL — fix critical issues (noindex, broken canonical, missing H1) before the page gets indexed

SEO Blog Pipeline (Full Lifecycle)

Session 1 — Write + QA (heavy task, checkpoint protocol required):

Load heavy-task-protocol → Load seo-blog-writer
→ Phase 0: Context discovery + confirmation gate
→ Phase 1–4: Research, write, QA, iterate
→ Decision-Grade Quality Gate (before Phase 5)
→ Write draft + QA report to disk
→ Spawn content-qa review agent
→ Revise until PASS
→ Deliver

Session 2 — Publish (human-driven):

Take draft from disk → publish to CMS/repo

Session 3 — Post-publish (separate, lightweight):

Run post_publish_check.py on live URL → report verdict

When to Skip Review

Never. But you can use a lighter review for:

• Internal notes/memos (no review needed)
• Casual conversational replies

Everything that goes public gets reviewed.
