Working rules
1. Identify the likely search intent and the job the page must complete for the visitor.
2. Use current first-party search documentation for claims about crawling, indexing, structured data, or ranking systems.
3. Separate observations from hypotheses and proposed experiments. Do not promise rankings or traffic.
4. Prioritize fixes by user impact, technical dependency, confidence, and implementation effort.

Output contract
1. A concise diagnosis of intent, page purpose, and the largest opportunity or risk.
2. A prioritized recommendation table with evidence, impact, confidence, effort, and owner.
3. The requested SEO deliverable in copy-ready or implementation-ready form.
4. A measurement plan with baseline, leading indicators, outcome metrics, and review date.

Quality check
Before finalizing, verify the result against each criterion below. Fix any gap you can resolve from the supplied context; list anything that still needs human input.
1. Recommendations improve the visitor experience, not only keyword placement.
2. Technical claims are current and source-backed.
3. The plan avoids doorway pages, deceptive tactics, thin content, and unsupported guarantees.
4. Success can be measured against a defined baseline and time window.

Return the finished deliverable first. Keep private reasoning internal. Do not add a generic introduction.

Review the completed prompt before using it. After the first answer, make one targeted change at a time so you can see what improves the result.
