Specialist **agent templates** are pre-built automation engines with constrained tool access, dedup logic, and per-run budgets. Each template maps to a proven SEO workflow. > **Not the Article Agent:** These templates are *autonomous workers* that operate Sight AI on your behalf. The [Article Agent](/ai-content/ai-agents) is the 8-role *writing pipeline* (Research, Writer, SEO, etc.) that template agents call into when dispatching articles. *** ## Search Opportunity Agent **Template key:** `article_creation` **What it does:** Finds the highest-scoring **Search Content Gap** opportunities — queries with impressions where you have no matching article yet — checks for duplicates, and dispatches articles through the Article Agent. **Behavior:** * Picks opportunities above a configurable score threshold * Calls duplicate checks before every dispatch * Uses the suggested article type (listicle, how-to, explainer) * Records a per-run summary for auditing | Default | Value | | ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Schedule | Every 24 hours | | Action budget | 2 articles per run | | Requires | [Google Search Console](/integrations/google-search-console), [Search Opportunities](/ai-visibility/search-opportunities) | **Use it for:** Automatically clearing your Content Gap backlog. *** ## AI Opportunity Agent **Template key:** `ai_prompt` **What it does:** Finds pending **AI Visibility prompt opportunities** — queries where LLMs answer but your brand isn't mentioned — and dispatches articles shaped for LLM citations (clear definitions, sourced lists, structured comparisons). **Behavior:** * Same dedup + dispatch flow as Search Opportunity Agent, but for AI-side opportunities * Uses a higher score threshold by default (AI opportunities need stronger signals) | Default | Value | | ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Schedule | Every 24 hours | | Action budget | 2 articles per run | | Requires | [Content Opportunities (AI)](/ai-visibility/content-opportunities) | **Use it for:** Automatically improving your AI mention rate. *** ## Article Boost Agent **Template key:** `article_boost` **What it does:** Refreshes pages that are gaining traction or underperforming. For each rising/refresh opportunity, it picks one of three approaches: 1. **Freshness pass** — bump dates, regenerate intro and meta if the article already covers the query well 2. **Targeted section addition** — insert one new section that answers the query *(default)* 3. **Full refresh** — replace the body wholesale *(only when explicitly enabled and the article is stale)* After refreshing, it republishes to your CMS. **It never creates new articles.** | Default | Value | | ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Schedule | Every 24 hours | | Action budget | 3 boosts per run | | Requires | [Google Search Console](/integrations/google-search-console), existing Sight AI articles, connected CMS for republish | **Use it for:** Capitalizing on Rising Pages and Refresh opportunities automatically. *** ## Interlinking Agent **Template key:** `interlinking` **What it does:** Reads suggested **internal-link opportunities** (from the Interlinks tab in Search Opportunities) and inserts well-placed anchors into source articles. **Behavior:** * Pulls the source article body * Finds where the suggested anchor text fits most naturally * Prefers paragraphs already discussing related concepts; never forces links into the intro * Skips rows with no natural fit (logged with explanation) | Default | Value | | ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Schedule | Every 24 hours | | Action budget | 5 anchors per run | | Requires | [Search Opportunities → Interlinks](/ai-visibility/search-opportunities) | **Use it for:** Building internal-link equity to underperforming articles after a content burst. Run Interlinking **after** the Search Opportunity Agent has published several new articles — you'll have more source pages to link from. *** ## Site Performance Agent **Template key:** `site_performance` **What it does:** Runs Lighthouse against your highest-traffic pages and writes a prioritized report of fixes. **Behavior:** * Audits Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, and SEO * Flags missing JSON-LD on AI-generated articles * Files a single report ranked by impact * Sends a one-paragraph TL;DR in notifications | Default | Value | | ------------- | ---------------------- | | Schedule | Weekly | | Action budget | 1 audit report per run | **Use it for:** Keeping technical SEO healthy without manual Lighthouse checks. *** ## Outreach Agent (configured in the Inbox) **The Outreach Agent is not a template automation.** It runs as a single always-on agent per site that you turn on and configure from **[Inbox](/ai-visibility/outreach-inbox) → Settings** — its sending domain, inbox setup, context/guidance, voice, sender name, and daily send volume all live there. It sends on a fixed **Mon–Fri 9 AM ET** schedule, so there's no cron to set and nothing to wire up on the Automations page. Set it up with the [Outreach Inbox](/ai-visibility/outreach-inbox) and [Outreach Email Setup](/ai-visibility/outreach-reply-tracking) guides. Author-email lookup and the opportunity queue it works from are covered in [Outreach Opportunities](/ai-visibility/outreach-opportunities). *** ## Customizing a template When creating or editing a template automation, you can adjust: * **Instructions** — append guidance (e.g. "Only act on opportunities with score above 70" or "Skip competitor comparison topics") * **Schedule** — any preset or manual-only * **End date** — auto-disable after a campaign ends * **Notifications** — email recipients + Slack channel Action budgets are set by the template engine defaults. Contact support if you need higher per-run limits for a specific use case. ## Best practices by template | Template | Recommendation | | ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Search Opportunity | Start here. Review activity logs for one week before adding more agents. | | AI Opportunity | Enable once you have 20+ AI Prompt opportunities and Search agent is stable. | | Article Boost | Pair with Search Opportunity — Boost refreshes existing pages; Search fills gaps. | | Interlinking | Enable after publishing 5+ articles in a burst. | | Site Performance | Weekly is usually enough; increase only for launch periods. | ## Next steps * [Getting started](/automations/getting-started) — create and enable your first automation * [Custom automations](/automations/custom-automations) — when templates aren't enough * [Monitoring](/automations/monitoring-and-troubleshooting) — audit every run
