Quora Content Generator
Produce a detailed answer, a Quora Space post, and question suggestions
from the content atoms provided by the orchestrator.
Inputs
Received from the parent agent (repurpose-longform):
| Input |
Description |
atoms |
Full list of content atoms with types and impact ratings |
main_argument |
One-sentence thesis of the source content |
target_audience |
Who benefits from this content |
primary_topic |
Category or niche |
voice_profile |
Detected or overridden brand voice |
brief_mode |
If true, produce answer only (skip Space post and questions) |
References
Load before generating:
references/platform-specs.md -- Quora character limits, posting times, algorithm weights
references/voice-adaptation.md -- Quora tone rules (expert, evidence-based)
references/hook-formulas.md -- opening hooks for answers and Space posts
Core Principle: Authority Through Depth
Quora rewards expertise, not marketing. The platform's algorithm and community
both prioritize thorough, evidence-based answers over shallow or promotional content.
What this means for output:
- The answer must be complete and standalone -- a reader should learn everything
they need without clicking any link
- Lead with direct answers, not preamble. Quora readers are impatient with "great question!" openings.
- Credentials and specificity build trust. "After analyzing 200 campaigns..." beats "In my experience..."
- Google indexes Quora answers heavily -- treat every answer as a mini SEO landing page
- One external link maximum per answer, placed naturally in context or at the bottom
- Never use phrases like "check out my article" or "I wrote about this on my blog"
- Instead: "I covered the full methodology with data here: [link]" (if the link adds genuine value)
Output 1: Answer
File: quora/answer.md
Question
Derive the best question to answer from the content atoms. The question should be:
- Something a real Quora user would actually search for or ask
- Specific enough to have a clear answer, broad enough to attract traffic
- Aligned with the strongest atoms (especially
insight, stat, howto)
Question formulas (pick the best fit):
| Formula |
When to Use |
| "What is the best way to [achieve outcome]?" |
When content has clear methodology or steps |
| "Why does [common approach] fail at [topic]?" |
When content has contrarian or diagnostic insights |
| "How do [professionals] approach [topic] differently?" |
When content reveals expert-level distinctions |
| "What are the most common mistakes in [topic]?" |
When content identifies pitfalls or anti-patterns |
| "Is [common belief] actually true for [topic]?" |
When content challenges conventional wisdom |
Answer Structure
Length: 300-1000 words. Quora's algorithm favors depth -- longer detailed answers
get 2-3x more upvotes than short ones.
Format: Quora-native formatting (bold, italic, headers, lists, blockquotes).
Structure:
Direct Answer (2-3 sentences)
Open by directly answering the question. No throat-clearing, no "Great question!",
no biography. The first two sentences should deliver the core answer so clearly
that a reader could stop here and still benefit.
Evidence and Depth (3-5 paragraphs)
Expand with the strongest atoms. Use specific numbers, examples, and comparisons.
Each paragraph should add a distinct layer of value:
- Paragraph 1: The primary insight with supporting data
- Paragraph 2: A real-world example or case study
- Paragraph 3: The nuance -- when this applies, when it doesn't
- Paragraphs 4-5 (optional): Additional evidence or secondary insights
Practical Steps (bulleted, 3-5 items)
Translate insights into actionable takeaways. Use Quora formatting:
**Step 1: [Action]** -- [Brief explanation]
**Step 2: [Action]** -- [Brief explanation]
Closing Thought (1-2 sentences)
End with either a forward-looking statement or a qualifier that shows intellectual
honesty ("This works for X context; for Y, you'd adjust by...").
Optional Link (1 sentence, separate from the answer body)
Only if the original content adds substantial depth beyond the answer.
Frame: "Full breakdown with [specific extra value] here: [link]"
Tone Rules
| Do |
Do NOT |
| Use "I" and share experience with specifics |
Make vague, unsubstantiated claims |

| Cite numbers, studies, or concrete examples |
Use marketing buzzwords or jargon |
| Acknowledge nuance and edge cases |
Speak in absolutes |
| Use bold for key terms and takeaways |
Use ALL CAPS or excessive formatting |
| Write in clear, structured paragraphs |
Write wall-of-text blocks |
| Be authoritative but approachable |
Be condescending or pedantic |
| Credit sources when referencing data |
Present others' work as your own |
Quora Formatting Reference
**bold text**
*italic text*
- bullet point
1. numbered list
> blockquote
[link text](url)
Headers are created with bold text on its own line.
Two line breaks = new paragraph.
Output 2: Space Post
File: quora/space-post.md
A shorter, more opinion-forward piece for a relevant Quora Space.
Space Post Structure
Length: 150-300 words. Space posts are lighter than answers -- think LinkedIn post
energy but with Quora's intellectual depth.
Structure:
- Hook (1-2 sentences) -- Bold observation or insight from the atoms
- Body (2-3 short paragraphs) -- Personal take, supporting evidence, practical angle
- Discussion prompt (1 sentence) -- Invite Space members to share their perspective
- Suggested Space -- Name 1-2 relevant Quora Spaces based on the content topic
Space Selection Criteria
- Topic relevance: Space actively discusses this subject
- Activity level: Prefer Spaces with regular posting and engagement
- Size: Medium Spaces (10k-100k followers) for best visibility
Common Space categories by content type:
| Content Topic |
Likely Spaces |
| Marketing |
Marketing Strategies, Digital Marketing, Content Marketing |
| Entrepreneurship |
Startups, Business Strategy, Entrepreneurship |
| Tech/SaaS |
Technology Trends, Software Engineering, Product Management |
| Productivity |
Personal Productivity, Self-Improvement, Time Management |
| Writing/Content |
Writing Tips, Content Creation, Blogging |
| SEO |
Search Engine Optimization, Digital Marketing |
| AI/Automation |
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, AI Tools |
Output 3: Question Suggestions
File: quora/questions.md
Analyze the content topic and suggest 3-5 questions the user could find and answer on Quora.
For each question, provide:
| Field |
Description |
| Question |
The exact question text as it would appear on Quora |
| Relevance |
Why this content can answer it well (1 sentence) |
| Competition |
Low / Medium / High -- based on how many quality answers likely exist |
| SEO Potential |
Low / Medium / High -- based on whether the question likely gets Google traffic |
| Adaptation Notes |
Any changes needed to the answer for this specific question |
Question selection criteria:
- Topic match -- the question naturally aligns with the content atoms
- Search intent -- the question reflects what people actually search for on Google
- Answer gap -- questions where existing answers are shallow or outdated
- Evergreen potential -- questions that will stay relevant for months or years
Error Handling
| Condition |
Action |
| Fewer than 3 atoms |
Write a shorter answer (200-400 words); focus on one insight |
No insight or stat atoms |
Use howto + quote atoms; frame as practical guide |
brief_mode is true |
Generate answer only; skip Space post and question suggestions |
| Topic is too niche for broad Quora reach |
Note in questions.md; suggest specific Spaces instead |
| Content is purely promotional |
Reframe entirely around the expertise; strip all product mentions |
| No clear question derivable |
Use the tldr atom to reverse-engineer a "How to..." question |
