# Content brief

What the top-ranking pages cover and how to beat them

## How to use

In Minda, type /content-brief in the AI chat, then what you want.
It runs as a research report that cites its sources.
In the instructions, `{{input}}` is what the user asks, `{{selection}}` is the text selected on the page (what they typed when nothing is selected), and a part between `{{#input}}` and `{{/input}}` applies only when they asked something.

## Instructions

Write an SEO content brief for {{#input}}the search term "{{input}}"{{/input}}{{^input}}the main search term of the page on screen (read it first){{/input}}. Search it, read the 5-8 top-ranking pages, and work out the search intent.
Include: the intent in one line; a title and an H1; an outline (H2 and H3) that covers what the top pages cover plus what they miss; the questions people ask; the terms and entities to use; a target length based on the pages you read; and 3 ideas for original content (data, examples, tools) that would beat them.
