name: pseo-generator description: "Build Programmatic SEO 2.0 systems at scale — AI-generated content using strict JSON schemas, niche taxonomy, and React renderers. Use when: (1) creating hundreds or thousands of programmatic pages, (2) building a niche taxonomy for pSEO content, (3) designing JSON schemas for AI-generated content types, (4) separating content generation from UI presentation, (5) generating resource pages, comparison pages, free tools, or checklist pages at scale. NOT for: traditional one-off page writing, keyword research only, or thin AI content that ignores niche context."

Programmatic SEO 2.0 — Agent Skill Reference

The core principle: never ask AI to write freeform content. Ask it to fill a strict JSON schema.

Content = JSON data. Design = React components. These two layers never mix.

System Architecture

Niche Taxonomy (309 niches) → AI fills JSON schema → Validated JSON files → React renderers → Published pages

Why schemas beat freeform:

• Consistent structure across all pages
• Predictable output quality
• Pages are validatable and type-safe
• Redesign UI without regenerating content
• Scale to 10,000+ pages without quality degradation

Step 1: Build the Niche Taxonomy

This is the most important investment. Rich niche context is what separates useful pSEO from thin name-swapped filler.

For each niche, define:

{
  "slug": "travel",
  "name": "Travel",
  "context": {
    "audience": "Armchair travelers, digital nomads, family vacation planners",
    "pain_points": "Seasonal traffic swings, high competition for destination keywords",
    "monetization": "Affiliate (booking, gear), display ads, sponsored trips",
    "content_that_works": "Itineraries, cost breakdowns, off-the-beaten-path guides",
    "subtopics": ["budget travel", "luxury travel", "adventure travel", "solo travel"]
  }
}

Start with 20-50 niches, expand to 300+ for scale. This context gets injected into every generation prompt — it's what makes a "travel SEO checklist" different from a "health SEO checklist."

See references/niche-taxonomy.md for the full niche structure and 20 starter niches.

Step 2: Design JSON Schemas per Content Type

Each content type gets its own schema. Constraints are intentional — they force consistent output.

Example: Resource Article Schema

interface ResourceArticle {
  meta: {
    content_type: string;
    niche: string;
  };
  seo: {
    title: string;        // templated, NOT AI-generated
    description: string;
    keywords: string[];
  };
  content: {
    intro: string;
    sections: {
      heading: string;
      items: {
        title: string;
        description: string;
        difficulty?: 'beginner' | 'intermediate' | 'advanced';
        potential?: 'high' | 'medium' | 'standard';
      }[];  // exactly 15-20 per section
    }[];
    pro_tips: string[];  // exactly 5
  };
}

Hard constraints (exact counts, required fields) prevent 8-item pages next to 40-item pages. See references/schema-library.md for 6 ready-to-use schemas.

Step 3: The 6 Content Categories

Category	Share	Notes
Resource pages	~58%	Idea lists, checklists, calendars, guides, templates — 34 content types × N niches
Comparison pages	~1%	Smallest category — most obvious, least differentiated
Free tools	~15%	Actual working tools with niche-specific examples
Checklist pages	~10%	Interactive, niche-aware
Guide pages	~8%	Long-form, structured
Template pages	~8%	Downloadable/fillable

Resource pages are the highest-volume opportunity. Start there.

Step 4: Generation at Scale

Use Gemini Flash (cost-to-quality ratio beats GPT-4 for structured JSON at volume).

Why Gemini Flash:

• Native structured JSON output (no markdown wrapping to parse)
• Cheap enough for 10,000+ pages
• Fast enough for batch generation

Generation prompt pattern:

Given this niche context: {niche_json}
Fill this schema: {schema}
Content type: {content_type}
Title template: {title}

Return ONLY valid JSON matching the schema. No prose, no markdown.

Validation: After generation, validate every file against the TypeScript schema. Reject and retry any that fail. At 13,000 pages, ~2-5% failure rate is normal.

Speed: 13,000+ pages in under 3 hours with parallel workers (10-20 concurrent API calls).

Step 5: React Renderers

Each content type gets its own specialized renderer. The renderer consumes the JSON and handles all presentation.

/renderers/
  ResourceArticleRenderer.tsx   — with filtering by category/difficulty
  ChecklistRenderer.tsx          — interactive checkboxes
  ComparisonTableRenderer.tsx    — structured tables
  FreeToolRenderer.tsx           — working tool UI

Key rule: Renderers never call AI. They only consume pre-generated JSON. This means you can:

• Redesign any page without regenerating content
• A/B test layouts without touching data
• Add new niches without touching UI

Key Metrics (Jake Ward experiment, 60 days)

• 13,000+ pages live
• Weekly organic clicks: 971 → 5,500 (+466%)
• ~50% of pages not yet indexed (curve still going up)
• Generation time: < 3 hours for all 13,000 pages

Quick Start Checklist

• Define 20+ niches with full context (audience, pain points, monetization, subtopics)
• Choose 2-3 content types to start (resource pages recommended)
• Write strict TypeScript schemas with hard constraints
• Build generation script with niche injection and JSON validation
• Build React renderers per content type
• Generate first batch (start with 100 pages to validate quality)
• Review output — check niche specificity, not just structure
• Scale up generation
• Submit sitemap, monitor indexation rate

Tolstoy-Specific Configuration

When generating pSEO content for gotolstoy.com, always load these files before generating any content:

• Brand voice: ~/.openclaw/workspace/tolstoy-context/brand-voice.md
• Competitor analysis: ~/.openclaw/workspace/tolstoy-context/competitor-analysis.md

Tolstoy Voice Rules (non-negotiable)

1. Positioning: Always use "AI Agent for Ecommerce" — never "tool" or "software"
2. Products: Name specifically: AI Studio, AI Player, AI Shopper
3. Vocabulary: "at scale," "autonomous," "closed loop," "without manual work"
4. Tone: Second-person ("you"), data-forward, peer-to-peer operator voice

6. Do NOT: Name competitors directly in body copy — stay category-level
7. Closed loop framing: AI Studio creates → AI Player distributes → AI Shopper converts → data loops back
