# SEO Article Finalizer

```bash
npx skills add https://github.com/peter-tu-zynkr/zynkr-skill-builder --skill seo-article-finalizer
```

The final leg of the SEO pipeline, corresponding to the flow-diagram step "article settings: backlinks and meta description". At this point the article content is already written and proofed (including the SEO/AEO review). This skill handles only the pre-publish technical settings: links, meta, schema. It **does not rewrite content**.

## Resources you'll use

> **Knowledge source**: The rubrics/templates used by this skill are read first from the SEO Knowledge Base's "01 Rubrics & Templates" (Drive, google-workspace MCP, searched by name); when unavailable, fall back to the local `./references/`. See the mapping table in `seo-article-pipeline/seo-pipeline-config.md`.

- **Link rules**: `./references/internal-link-rules.md`
- **meta / schema rules**: `./references/meta-schema-rules.md`
- **SEO knowledge-base folder ID**: `<your-seo-kb-folder-id>` (look at pillar pages / existing articles for internal links)

## Step 1 — Receive the article and Brief

Read the already-proofed article + `SEO_PACKET ▸ Brief` (to get the target keyword, CTA, and internal-link targets).

## Step 2 — Link suggestions

Per `./references/internal-link-rules.md`:
- Mark the paragraphs that can take **internal links** (pillar pages, related articles, the /consult B2B page).
- Mark the paragraphs suited to **backlinks / external citations** (third-party authorities, digital PR). Corresponds to "list which paragraphs can take links".

## Step 3 — meta description + schema

Per `./references/meta-schema-rules.md`:
- Write the meta description (includes the primary keyword, a hook, length-compliant). Corresponds to "add the meta description".
- Produce FAQ schema (using the FAQ from the outline stage) + Article schema.

## Step 4 — Human confirmation (HITL)

List the publish package for the user to confirm, corresponding to the downstream manual "publish the article" step.

## Step 5 — Output the publish package and save

```
SEO_PACKET ▸ Finalize
- 內部連結：<段落 → 目標頁（錨文字）>
- 反向/外部連結：<段落 → 來源型態>
- meta description：<...>
- schema：FAQ + Article（附 JSON-LD）
- 上架檢查表：見 meta-schema-rules

文章已完成 SEO 設定，可上架。EN 旗艦版可交 content-translator。
```

## Outputs

Publish package (link suggestions + meta + schema + publish checklist).

## Limitations

Does not rewrite content, does not score (that is content-editor). Actual publishing to the website is done manually / via the CMS.
