Usage

/brief [topic or rough title]

Pass any topic — a rough title, a keyword, a one-liner. The skill figures out the rest.

What it does

  1. Runs one web search on the most likely primary keyword to find what's ranking and the beginner gap
  2. Scans existing articles to catch duplicates and surface internal linking opportunities
  3. Produces a write-ready brief with: type, target keyword, secondary keywords, slug, SEO title, meta description, tags, angle, outline, internal links, and affiliate notes
  4. Saves the brief to content/briefs/<slug>.md
  5. Marks the entry in content/ideas.md as [BRIEF #1]

Workflow position

quick-brief (/brief) → content-writer (/draft) → seo-auditor (/audit) → publishing-gate (/check) → social-writer (/social)

Output

The brief is saved to content/briefs/<slug>.md and is immediately ready for /draft [slug].
