Critical: Accuracy Over Marketing
Before writing anything:
Verify every claim:
If you cite a number, confirm the source If you mention a feature, confirm it exists in production When uncertain, ask for clarification
Never oversell:
Disclose limitations: "Currently supports X; Y coming in vZ" Be honest about beta status and rollout timelines
Match category voice:
Technology: Technical authority, data-driven Company: Visionary, category-defining Product: Problem-solver, benefit-oriented Writing Guidelines Concise & scannable: Match category word counts Lead with value: Start with what readers gain Be transparent: Mention beta status, limitations Active voice: "You can now..." not "Users are able to..." No emoji: Professional tone Include TL;DR: 80-100 words for AI citation FAQ section: 3-5 questions matching search queries Code examples: Required for Technology posts Workflow Detect category from input or ask if unclear Load category style from resources/categories/{category}.md Research topic using web-search-researcher agent Draft following category template and templates Add AEO elements per aeo-requirements Review with checklist Quick Reference Category Selection Category Use When Audience Technology Technical deep-dives, architecture, research Developers, engineers Company Funding, partnerships, events, hiring Executives, investors Product Feature launches, updates, tutorials Customers, prospects Do Include code examples (Technology) Use "shift from/to" narratives (Company) Lead with pain point (Product) Link to 3-5 related docs Don't Marketing buzzwords without substance Claims without verification Long paragraphs (keep sections scannable) Generic corporate speak Output
