Auto-Cluster
Smart pillar selection for topic clusters scores keywords by:

| Volume | Medium | 0-30 |
| Difficulty (inverse) | Medium | 0-30 |

Content Strategy Fast-Path
When a Production Agent runs with approved strategies:
- Pipeline skips Phases 0-4 (no need for keyword picking, SERP analysis, or brief building)
- Strategies are converted directly to content briefs
- Execution starts at Phase 5 (Source Researcher)
This significantly speeds up the production pipeline.
