Why it matters
- It connects opportunities to publishable content.
- It ensures briefs are aligned to target prompts and citation sources.

How to interpret results
- If Target Prompt % is low → the brief may not match the query → adjust structure and headers to align to the prompt.
- If citations are mostly competitor/social → your article needs stronger primary/owned sources → add citeable sections and schema.
- If you can’t “Generate article” → it may be in Researching/Add context → provide missing inputs first.
- If content is strong but visibility doesn’t move → distribution/off-page may be the constraint → use Off-page Outreach/Engage.
- If edits improve sentiment but not rank → you’re solving narrative, not trust → check citations.
Common questions / troubleshooting
- “What does ‘Add context’ mean?” → Meridian needs extra inputs (brand facts, constraints, angles) before generating.
- “Where do Target Prompts come from?” → from the opportunity’s underlying prompt gaps and your tracked library.
- “Why does History show ‘Content Updated’?” → it logs changes (manual edits + AI refinement).
