Cross-reference
This skill operates at the FLOW Find stage. Before selecting topics, run
/blog flow find for keyword discovery, content prioritization, and audience

Workflow
Step 1: Understand the Blog
Gather context:
- Niche/industry: What is the blog about?
- Existing content: Scan for existing blog posts (Glob for *.md, *.mdx, *.html)
- Publishing cadence: How often can they publish? (default: 2x/week)
- Timeframe: Monthly or quarterly calendar?
- Business goals: What should the blog drive? (traffic, leads, authority)
Step 2: Topic Cluster Design
Design 3-5 topic clusters (pillar + supporting content):
Cluster: [Pillar Topic]
├── Pillar Page: [Comprehensive guide - 3,000+ words]
├── Supporting: [Subtopic 1 - 2,000 words]
├── Supporting: [Subtopic 2 - 2,000 words]
├── Supporting: [Subtopic 3 - 1,500 words]
├── Comparison: [X vs Y - 1,500 words]
└── FAQ: [Common questions - 1,500 words]
Each cluster should:
- Target a primary keyword theme
- Cover the topic comprehensively for topical authority
- Include varied content types (guides, comparisons, how-tos, listicles)
- Support internal linking between cluster pages
Step 2.5: Content Decay Detection
Scan existing blog posts for lastUpdated or date fields in frontmatter.
Classify each post by staleness using these thresholds:
