Create content of any configured type from a topic or from the content backlog. Orchestrates research, writing, style review, glossary creation, linking, and reindexing as focused sub-agents. Hooks handle tracker updates and build verification automatically.
content-seo setup wizard. Run /init to see status, or /init [round] to run a setup step. Rounds: project, credentials, strategy.
Site-level SEO intelligence. Routes to one of five workflows — status (site-wide GSC performance), opportunities (pages ranking 4–20), diagnose (deep-dive a page with GSC data + fixes), brief (keyword research before writing), or coverage (audit GSC indexing errors from a CSV export).
content-ops setup wizard. Run /init to see status, or /init [round] to run a setup step. Rounds: project, content-types, style, strategy, infra, images, link-building.
Identify content gaps and add suggestions to the backlog. Accepts an optional freeform payload to narrow scope. Without a payload, surveys the full corpus against pillars. Powered by the backlog-suggester agent.
Loads and applies the project's configured style guide. Hard stops if config or any required piece is missing. All style rules come from the guidelines file set during /init style.

This skill defines how content cross-referencing works. All rules — link syntax, URL patterns, frontmatter field names, bidirectional policy, first-mention policy, anchor text, scope, and exclusions — come from the project's configured link building guide. Nothing is hardcoded here.
Before applying any linking rules, verify the following are present. Stop immediately if any are missing:
| Required | Config key | If missing |
|---|---|---|
| Config file | .content-ops/config.md exists | "Run /init first." |
| Link building section | link_building | "Run /init link-building to configure your link building strategy." |
| Guide path | link_building.guide | "Run /init link-building — guide path not set." |
| Guide file exists | (read the file at that path) | "Run /init link-building — link building guide not found at [path]." |
Read the guide file from link_building.guide. This file is the authoritative source for all linking rules for this project, including:
Apply only the rules defined in that file. Do not apply rules not present in the guide.
