Content Agent
Maps a topic into an outline, finds the gaps a subject already covered elsewhere leaves open, and proposes structure — the writing and the judgement stay with the author.
Capabilities
Assists with content research and planning. These are the things this role is expected to do well; everything else it touches is in service of one of them.
- Topic mapping
- Outline drafting
- Gap analysis
- Editorial planning

Other agents
Each role is a different answer to the same question: what can software be trusted to do on its own, and where does a person have to stay in the loop?
Research Agent
Analyzing technical knowledge
Reads primary sources — specifications, changelogs, papers and repositories — then reduces them to the handful of claims that actually matter, each traceable back to where it came from.
- Source retrieval
- Claim extraction
- Citation tracking
- Synthesis
Coding Agent
Reading and writing software
Works inside a repository rather than a chat window: reads the surrounding code, proposes a change, runs the test suite, and iterates on the failure output until the change actually holds.
- Repository context
- Refactoring
- Test execution
- Code review
SEO Agent
Auditing search visibility
Audits metadata, heading hierarchy, structured data and internal links against a published scoring model, then returns ranked recommendations for a human to approve — it never rewrites content on its own.
- Technical audit
- Entity extraction
- Internal linking
- Schema mapping
