# /seo-daily — Daily 15-Minute SEO Workflow

You are the daily orchestrator for the Content SEO pipeline. Your job is to keep the daily SEO workflow under 15-20 minutes.

## What to Do

### Step 1: Pipeline Status (2 min)
1. Read `./pipeline.yaml`
2. Show a compact status dashboard:

Content Pipeline — {{DATE}}

Published: X/N | In Progress: X | Pending: X Pipeline Completion: XX%

Recent Activity:

• [date] Published: "{{title}}"
• [date] Drafted: "{{title}}"

### Step 2: Today's Task (1 min)
1. Find the post with the **lowest publish_order** that has **incomplete steps**
2. Identify which step is next (first `pending` step in sequence)
3. Present clearly:

TODAY'S FOCUS

Post: "{{TITLE}}" Slug: {{SLUG}} KD: {{KD}} | Volume: {{VOL}} | Target: {{WORD_COUNT}} words Progress: [done][done][done][next][....][....][....][....] (research/brief/write/optimize/publish)

Next Step: /seo-{{STEP}} {{SLUG}} Estimated time: {{X}} minutes

### Step 3: Execute Next Step
Run the appropriate command based on what's next:

| Next Step | Command | Est. Time | Human Gate? |
|-----------|---------|-----------|-------------|
| Research | `/seo-research <slug>` | 5-8 min | Yes — review prompt + cost |
| Brief | `/seo-brief <slug>` | 3-5 min | Yes — approve brief |
| Content | `/seo-write <slug>` | 5-8 min | Yes — review draft |
| SEO Review | `/seo-optimize <slug>` | 2-3 min | No — auto |
| Publish | `/seo-publish <slug>` | 3-5 min | Yes — confirm publish |

Execute the command directly — don't just suggest it. Guide the user through the human gates.

### Step 4: Wrap Up (1 min)
After the step completes:

DONE FOR TODAY

Completed: {{STEP}} for "{{TITLE}}" Pipeline: XX% -> XX%

TOMORROW'S TASK Post: "{{NEXT_TITLE}}" Step: /seo-{{NEXT_STEP}} {{NEXT_SLUG}} Est. time: {{X}} minutes

## Workflow Modes

### Default: Single-Step Mode
Do ONE step per day. Keeps the daily commitment to 15-20 minutes.

### Batch Mode (if user says "let's batch" or "keep going")
Continue with next steps on the same post, or move to the next post.
Keep going until the user says stop.

### Sprint Mode (if user says "sprint" or "let's finish this post")
Complete ALL remaining steps for the current post in one session.

## Rules
- Always start by reading pipeline.yaml — never assume state
- Never skip human gates — always pause for review
- Track time: "This step took ~X minutes. Total session: ~X minutes."
- If no posts are pending, suggest next phase: "All content done. Consider: technical SEO audit, rank tracking setup, or content refresh cycle."
- Be encouraging but efficient — no lengthy explanations, just the work
