3-Mode Workflow

MODE 1: PLAN

1. Understand Analysis Goals

   - What insights are needed?
   - Which reference materials are available?
   - What will the insights be used for?
   

2. Inventory References

   # List available references
   find references/ -type f -name "*.txt" -o -name "*.md"
   
   # Count materials by type
   ls references/transcripts/ | wc -l
   ls references/examples/ | wc -l
   

3. Create Analysis Plan

   ## Analysis Plan
   
   ### Goal
   [What insights are needed]
   
   ### Available Materials
   - Transcripts: X files
   - Examples: Y files
   - Brand guidelines: [yes/no]
   
   ### Analysis Steps
   1. [Step 1]
   2. [Step 2]
   
   ### Expected Outputs
   - [Output 1]
   - [Output 2]
   

MODE 2: CLARIFY

Ask to understand analysis scope:

• "Which transcripts should I prioritize?"
• "What specific themes are you looking for?"
• "Should I focus on quotes for social or for presentations?"
• "Any particular competitor content to analyze?"
• "What format should the analysis output be?"

MODE 3: IMPLEMENT

1. Run Analysis

   • Execute appropriate analysis scripts
   • Process all relevant reference materials
   • Generate structured outputs

2. Synthesize Findings

   • Combine insights from multiple analyses
   • Create actionable summaries
   • Highlight key patterns

3. Save Results

Best Practices

1. Quality Over Quantity: Better to deeply analyze few excellent references than superficially scan many
2. Source Attribution: Always track where insights came from
3. Regular Updates: Re-analyze when new reference materials are added
4. Cross-Reference: Look for patterns across multiple sources
5. Actionable Output: Analysis should directly inform content creation

Adding New References

When adding new reference materials:

1. Place in correct folder based on type
2. Use consistent naming (date_topic_source.txt)
3. Include metadata if available (speaker, date, context)
4. Run initial analysis to integrate into knowledge base

# After adding new transcript
python scripts/content/analyze_transcript.py \
  --input references/transcripts/new_transcript.txt \
  --update-themes \
  --output output/analysis/

Output Files

• output/analysis/themes/ - Theme extraction results
• output/analysis/quotes/ - Mined quotes
• output/analysis/voice/ - Brand voice profiles
