Opportunity types
The kinds of work an opportunity can represent, from a new page to a rewrite or a consolidation.

Not every opportunity means a new page. Most of the work a mature site needs is fixing, consolidating and rewriting what's already there: and the opportunity surface reflects that.
Doing this rather than looking it up? The Tutorial walks this screen step by step in 4.3 · Manage opportunities.
Reference
There are two kinds of opportunity:
| Kind | What accepting it does |
|---|---|
| New page | Creates a brief for a URL that doesn't exist yet |
| Rewrite | Creates a brief attached to a live page, keeping its URL and history |
Everything else you'll see on an opportunity is a signal on one of those two, not a third kind:
- Cannibalization: a note on the opportunity describing pages of yours that compete with each other.
- Coverage overlap: a badge meaning this likely duplicates something you've published.
- Internal links: link suggestions are available to an agent through the MCP connection rather than as an opportunity you accept.
A rewrite brief skips the template choice at acceptance; you pick it when you set the angle.
The badge is a prompt, not a decision. Overlap detection is good at spotting similarity and bad at knowing whether two pages should be distinct. That judgement stays with you.
