Data Sources

See CONNECTORS.md for tool category placeholders.

With ~~search console + ~~SEO tool connected: Automatically pull current meta tags, CTR data by query, competitor title/description patterns, SERP preview data, and impression/click metrics to identify optimization opportunities.

With manual data only: Ask the user to provide:

1. Current title and meta description (if optimizing existing)
2. Target primary keyword and 2-3 secondary keywords
3. Page URL and main content/value proposition
4. Competitor URLs or examples of well-performing titles in the SERP

Proceed with the full workflow using provided data. Note in the output which metrics are from automated collection vs. user-provided data.

Instructions

When a user requests meta tag optimization, run these six steps:

1. Gather Page Information — URL, page type, primary/secondary keywords, target audience, primary CTA, unique value prop
2. Create Optimized Title Tag — 50-60 chars, primary keyword front-loaded; pick from 5 formula options (Keyword|Benefit|Brand, Number+Keyword+Promise, How-to, Question, Year+Keyword); generate 3 options with power word analysis
3. Write Meta Description — 150-160 chars, primary keyword, CTA; use

   [Offer] + [Benefit] + [CTA]

   formula; generate 3 options with CTA and emotional trigger labels
4. Create Open Graph, Twitter Card, and Additional Meta Tags — OG (og:type/url/title/description/image), Twitter Card, canonical, robots, viewport, author, article tags; combine into full block
5. CORE-EEAT Alignment Check — verify C01 (Intent Alignment) and C02 (Direct Answer) with Pass/Warn/Fail
6. Provide CTR Optimization Tips — power words analysis, CTR boosting elements table (Numbers +20-30%, Year +15-20%, Power Words +10-15%, Question +10-15%, Brackets +10%), A/B test suggestions

• One-line description of what was created
• Target keyword and content type
• Open loops or items needing review
• Source data references

Gate check recommended: Run content-quality-auditor before publishing (PostToolUse hook will remind automatically).
