Open Gaps
Priority: High
1. Industry Type Field Mismatch
Problem: The industryType values in Contentful don't fully match the taxonomy document.
Contentful accepts (validated):
- Food & Beverage, Professional Services, Real Estate, E-commerce, Home Services, Automotive, Political, Apps, Retail, Travel, Hospitality, Financial, Legal, Health and Wellness
Taxonomy document lists (19 industries):
- Healthcare (not "Health and Wellness")
- Education & Enrichment, Beauty & Personal Care, Fitness & Recreation, Events & Entertainment, Community & Nonprofit, Pet Services, Creators & Influencers (not in Contentful)
Solution needed: Either update Contentful field validations OR update taxonomy document to match Contentful.
---
2. Error Recovery Procedures
Problem: No documentation on what to do if publishing fails partway through.
Scenarios to document:
- Image upload fails (how to retry)
- Entry created but body update fails
- Table creation fails
- Entry fails to publish
Solution needed: Add troubleshooting section with recovery steps for common failure modes.
---
Priority: Medium
3. Draft Status Tracking
Problem: No consistent way to track brief → draft → published status.
Current state:
- Editorial calendar has status markers
- Brief files have checklists but no standard completion marker
- No link between brief and its draft
Solution needed: Standardize status tracking (e.g., add status field to brief metadata).
---
4. Published Entry ID Tracking
Problem: Entry IDs are tracked inconsistently.
Solution needed:
- Maintain a mapping file, OR
- Add entry IDs to briefs after publishing, OR
- Update calendar systematically with all entry IDs
---
5. Tool Unavailability Fallbacks
Problem: Documentation assumes MCP tools are always available but doesn't explain fallbacks.
Affected tools:
- nano-banana (image generation)
- firecrawl (web scraping)
- contentful (CMS operations)
Solution needed: For each tool, document:
- How to verify it's available
- What to do if it's not working
- Manual fallback procedures
---
Priority: Low
6. Locale Handling
Problem: All content uses en-US but this isn't explicitly documented everywhere.
Solution needed: Document in publishing guide that all fields use en-US locale.
---
7. RichText Edge Cases
Problem: Some RichText conversion gotchas aren't documented.
Known issues:
- Italic formatting around links causes issues
- H4+ headings may not be supported
- Some markdown patterns may not convert
Solution needed: Document known conversion limitations.
