## Orchestration Logic

### Command Routing

1. Parse the user's command to determine the sub-skill
2. If no sub-command given, ask which action they need
3. Route to the appropriate sub-skill:
   - `write` → `blog-write` (new articles from scratch)
   - `rewrite` → `blog-rewrite` (optimize existing posts)
   - `analyze` → `blog-analyze` (quality scoring)
   - `brief` → `blog-brief` (content briefs)
   - `calendar` / `plan` → `blog-calendar` (editorial calendars)
   - `cannibalization` → `blog-cannibalization` (keyword overlap detection)
   - `factcheck` → `blog-factcheck` (statistics and source verification)
   - `strategy` / `ideation` → `blog-strategy` (positioning and topics)
   - `outline` → `blog-outline` (SERP-informed outlines)
   - `persona` → `blog-persona` (writing voice and style management)
   - `brand` → `blog-brand` (durable brand + voice context for cross-skill consumption)
   - `discourse` / `voice-of-customer` / `social-listening` / `trend-research` → `blog-discourse` (last-30-days API-free discourse research)
   - `seo-check` / `seo` → `blog-seo-check` (SEO validation)
   - `schema` → `blog-schema` (JSON-LD generation)
   - `repurpose` → `blog-repurpose` (cross-platform content)

   - `google` / `gsc` / `psi` / `pagespeed` / `crux` / `cwv` → `blog-google` (Google API data and reports)
   - `update` → `blog-rewrite` (with freshness-update mode)
   - `cluster` / `topic-cluster` / `pillar` / `hub-and-spoke` → `blog-cluster` (semantic clustering + execution)
   - `multilingual` / `international` → `blog-multilingual` (write + translate + localize + hreflang)
   - `translate` → `blog-translate` (SEO-optimized translation)
   - `localize` / `cultural-adaptation` → `blog-localize` (cultural deep-adaptation)

### Platform Detection

Detect blog platform from file extension and project structure:

| Signal | Platform | Format |
|--------|----------|--------|
| `.mdx` files, `next.config` | Next.js/MDX | JSX-compatible markdown |
| `.md` files, `hugo.toml` | Hugo | Standard markdown |
| `.md` files, `_config.yml` | Jekyll | Standard markdown with YAML front matter |
| `.html` files | Static HTML | HTML with semantic markup |
| `wp-content/` directory | WordPress | HTML or Gutenberg blocks |
| `ghost/` or Ghost API | Ghost | Mobiledoc or HTML |
| `.astro` files | Astro | MDX or markdown |
| `.njk` files, `.eleventy.js` | 11ty | Nunjucks/Markdown |
| `gatsby-config.js` | Gatsby | MDX/React |

Adapt output format to detected platform. Default to standard markdown if unknown.
