The first challenge was establishing a robust pipeline that could generate structured MDX blog drafts with minimal human intervention.

I designed a system that takes simple prompts or keywords and transforms them into fully-formatted blog posts with proper frontmatter, headings, and content structure.

// Example pipeline flow
async function generateBlogPost(topic: string) {
  // 1. Research phase
  const researchData = await researchTopic(topic);
  
  // 2. Content generation
  const content = await generateContent(topic, researchData);
  
  // 3. MDX formatting
  return formatAsMDX(content);
}

To ensure content quality, I integrated Brave Search API with Claude to perform automated research on topics, gathering relevant information and citations.

This allows the system to create content that's not just well-structured, but also factually accurate and up-to-date with the latest information.

// Example research function
async function researchTopic(topic: string) {
  // 1. Perform Brave Search
  const searchResults = await braveSearch.query(topic);
  
  // 2. Extract relevant information
  const relevantInfo = await claude.analyze(searchResults);
  
  // 3. Format citations
  return formatResearchData(relevantInfo);
}

Content is only valuable if it can be discovered. I built an AI system that automatically generates SEO-friendly metadata for each blog post.

This includes optimized titles, descriptions, keywords, and structured data that helps search engines better understand and rank the content.

// Example of AI-generated metadata
export const metadata = {
  title: "Optimizing React Performance with Memo",
  description: "Learn how to use React.memo to prevent unnecessary 
  re-renders and improve your application's performance",
  keywords: ["react", "performance", "memo", "optimization"],
  openGraph: {
    title: "React Performance Optimization Guide",
    description: "Practical techniques to speed up your React apps"
  }
}

I've implemented an AI-powered TL;DR feature that automatically generates concise summaries highlighting key points from each article.

These summaries appear at the top of the content on mobile devices and in the sidebar on desktop, providing readers with a quick overview before diving into the full article.
