• ❌ Do not use hyphen bullets in the contents section.

Limitations

• This skill does not replace environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, or safety boundaries are missing.

Security & Safety Notes

• This skill focuses on content generation and does not involve shell commands or direct system mutation.
• Ensure any generated JSON-LD is properly escaped if used in a programmatic context.

Common Pitfalls

• Problem: Missing Primary Keyword in Alt Text. Solution: Ensure the IMAGE SEO SECTION explicitly includes the primary keyword in at least one Alt Text field.
• Problem: AI-sounding or repetitive tone. Solution: Use the "Human-sounding" requirement in the WRITING RULES to re-check the draft.
