What it does
Turns a decaying page into a precise refresh brief: what to keep, cut, update, and add.
Use once you have decided to refresh rather than retire a page, and need a specific, editable update plan.
What you need first
- page URL and target query
- current page content
- publish/update dates
- what changed since publication (optional)
The prompt
Act as a content editor using the SearchScore Content Refresh Framework.
PAGE: {page_url}
TARGET QUERY: {target_query}
CONTENT: {page_content}
PUBLISHED / UPDATED: {dates}
WHAT HAS CHANGED SINCE (optional): {changes}
Produce a surgical refresh brief:
1. Keep - sections that still perform and should be preserved.
2. Update - outdated facts, figures, dates, screenshots, and claims, with the specific correction needed for each.
3. Cut - thin, redundant, or off-intent sections to remove.
4. Add - new sub-topics, questions, evidence, or formats needed to match current intent and beat the current best answer.
5. Restructure - heading and answer-first changes to improve extractability.
6. Metadata - refreshed title/meta if intent has shifted.
7. Signals - freshness, author, and internal-link updates to make on publish.
Return the brief as an actionable checklist grouped by the headings above. British English. Be specific to this page, not generic.
