aeo-answer-blockifier
Rewrites a section or page into concise, self-contained answer blocks that AI answer engines and search snippets can lift and cite verbatim. Use when restructuring a blog post, FAQ, docs page, or landing copy to win a featured snippet or get quoted by AI Overviews, ChatGPT, or Perplexity, or when a draft buries its answer in setup. Do NOT use for keyword research, full-article drafting, or technical/crawlability SEO - use a dedicated SEO or copywriting skill instead.

# AEO Answer Blockifier
Restructure existing content into question-led blocks an engine can quote out of context, so the page earns citations and snippets instead of just ranking.
## Workflow
1. **Extract the questions.** List every distinct question the section actually answers, in the user's natural wording (including conversational and voice phrasing). One block per question. If a passage answers no clear question, either reframe it as one or drop it from blockification.
2. **Set the heading to the question.** Make each H2/H3 the exact question, matching how a user would type or speak it. This maps the block to the query and mirrors People Also Ask.
3. **Lead with the answer.** State the direct answer in the first one or two sentences under the heading - conclusion first, before any setup. Supporting detail, nuance, and caveats follow. An answer buried in paragraph three forfeits the citation; extraction overwhelmingly favors the first 1-2 sentences after the heading.
4. **Make the block self-contained.** Name the subject explicitly in the answer sentence. Remove "as mentioned above," "this," and any pronoun or reference pointing offscreen, so the block reads correctly when lifted alone.
5. **Pick the format the question demands.** "How to" / "steps" → numbered list. "Best" / "types of" → bulleted list. "What is" → one tight definition paragraph. Comparison → a table. Forcing prose onto a list-shaped query loses the extraction.
6. **Size the block to the format.** Definition/paragraph answer: roughly 40-60 words (featured snippets typically truncate near 300 characters, so the complete answer must land before that cutoff). List: 3-8 scannable items, one idea each, under ~10 words per item where possible. Table: labeled columns, no prose padding in cells.
7. **Add verifiable trust signals.** Where the answer makes a factual claim, attach a concrete number, named source, or first-hand specific an engine can check (this is what E-E-A-T rewards). Replace generic unsourced assertions with verifiable ones.
8. **Verify against the quality bar** before returning.
