topic-clusters
Skill0 starsChanged 39 days agoMITView on GitHub
Plan topic clusters (pillar page plus supporting articles) for topical authority using SEOsorted keyword data. Use when the user asks for a content strategy, content plan, topic clusters, pillar pages, topical authority, a content roadmap, or how to organize many keywords into a site structure with internal links.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈0
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
4
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 10
Start from a keyword shortlist (run keyword-research first if there is none) or research_keywords operation: "list" for saved keywords.
- Very specific: line 13
Run cannibalization-check across the whole plan.
- Very specific: line 14
Check manage_articles operation: "list" so existing pages slot into clusters instead of being rewritten.
- Very specific: line 29
Write the pillar first with write-article (content type PILLAR_GUIDE), then the supporting articles with bulk-content-run.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Topic clusters
Steps
- Start from a keyword shortlist (run
keyword-researchfirst if there is none) orresearch_keywordsoperation: "list"for saved keywords. - Group by search intent and entity, not by shared words. A cluster is one topic a reader would explore in one sitting (e.g. "tirzepatide dosing": dosage chart, units conversion, titration schedule, missed dose).
- Pick each cluster's pillar: the broadest keyword with the highest volume that a comprehensive guide can satisfy. Supporting articles take the narrower intents.
- Run
cannibalization-checkacross the whole plan. Pairs sharing 7+ of Google's top 10 URLs belong in one page — merge them. Pairs sharing 4–6 need clearly different angles. - Check
manage_articlesoperation: "list"so existing pages slot into clusters instead of being rewritten.
Output
For each cluster:
| Role | Keyword | Volume | KD | Status (new / exists) | Links to |
Pillar links to every supporting article; every supporting article links back to the pillar and to 1–2 siblings.
Order clusters by total opportunity (sum of volume of quick-win and high keywords) and by fit with what the business sells.
Next
Write the pillar first with write-article (content type PILLAR_GUIDE), then the supporting articles with bulk-content-run.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
