Blog Post

Establish the brief for this post. Do not start writing yet.

Capture, in plain prose:

• Topic — what the post is about, in one sentence
• Target reader — who this is for and what they already know
• Angle — the specific take or insight, not a generic overview
• Goal — what the reader should think, feel, or do after reading
• Primary call to action — the one next step you want

If any of these is missing or vague, ask the operator before
advancing. A weak brief produces a weak post.

Before advancing, save the full brief as a task note with
task_notes_add. The next step — Outline — reads this note as its
named input.

Read the task notes with task_notes_list — the note from the Brief
step contains topic, reader, angle, goal, and CTA. Work from it.

Build the outline. What good looks like:

• Working title — specific, not a placeholder
• Hook — the opening line or idea that earns the next sentence
• H2 section headings in order, each with a one-line summary of
  what that section argues or delivers
• Target reader restated so the structure stays aimed at them
• Closing CTA matching the brief

Keep the outline tight — a reader should grasp the whole arc from
the headings alone.

Save the full outline as a task note with task_notes_add. Then ask
the operator to approve the outline before any drafting begins.
This is a checkpoint — the AI cannot advance until you approve.

Read the task notes with task_notes_list — the note from the Outline
step contains the approved structure. Work from it.

Write the full first draft following the approved outline section by
section. Hold to the angle and the target reader from the brief. Use
concrete examples over abstractions. Write the real hook, not a
placeholder. Do not pad to hit a length — every paragraph earns its
place.

Before advancing, save the full draft as a task note with
task_notes_add so the Edit step — or a fresh session — picks up
exactly here. If the draft exceeds 10,000 characters, split it across
sequential notes or save it where the operator keeps documents and
record that location in the note.

Read the task notes with task_notes_list — the note from the Draft
step contains the full first draft, and the Brief note holds the goal
and CTA to check against. Work from them.

Edit the draft for:

• Clarity — cut filler, fix any sentence that needs a second read
• Flow — each section leads into the next; the hook still lands
• Accuracy — every claim is correct and specific
• Brief alignment — the angle, target reader, and CTA all hold
• Title — confirm it is the strongest accurate option

Save the full edited draft as a task note with task_notes_add,
replacing the working draft as the current version. The Final Review
step reads this note.

Read the task notes with task_notes_list — the note from the Edit
step contains the current version. Work from it.

Do a final read-through as the target reader would. Confirm the title,
hook, sections, and CTA all deliver on the brief and that nothing is
broken or unfinished. Surface anything still off.

Ask the operator to approve the post for publishing. This is a
checkpoint — publishing is the irreversible moment, so the AI cannot
advance until you approve. If you reject, the workflow returns to Edit.

The post is approved and ready to publish. Confirm the final approved
draft is saved as a task note so the published version stays on the
record, then close out the task.
