## Executive verdict

SEO_NO_GO.

Most P0 remediation landed on production: JSON-LD, crawlable content depth, page-level `og:url`, sitemap/robots, `/prompts/[slug]` non-generation, and the deploy-time `seo:audit` script are present.

The remaining blocker is rendered production image alt: multiple public pages still ship `<img>` tags without `alt`. This is a P0 media/accessibility gate failure and also proves the local `seo:audit` gate is not sufficient yet, because it reports `img_missing_alt=0` while production HTML shows missing alt attributes.

No GSC/Bing/IndexNow submission was performed.

## Previous blockers rechecked

| Previous issue | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| P0-1 JSON-LD schema absent | RESOLVED | Production core routes now expose required JSON-LD types: WebApplication/FAQPage/BreadcrumbList on `/`, WebApplication/FAQPage on `/ai-photo-prompt-editor`, Article/FAQPage/BreadcrumbList on `/chatgpt-photo-editing-prompts`, CollectionPage/FAQPage on `/ai-photo-editing-prompts` and `/prompt-library`. |
| P0-2 Core SEO content too thin | RESOLVED | Production core word counts are now 1062–1486 words; all five core SEO pages clear the ≥800 crawlable-word gate. |
| P0-3 Keyword / semantic coverage weak | RESOLVED_WITH_WAIVER | Exact primary phrases are visible on all five core pages (12–17 exact uses; ~1.01%–1.35%). Local gate records strong semantic coverage and waives exact 2.5%–3.6% density to avoid keyword stuffing. |
| P0-4 Image alt missing | STILL_OPEN / P0 | Production HTML still renders missing `alt` attributes: `/` 4, `/ai-photo-prompt-editor` 4, `/chatgpt-photo-editing-prompts` 3, `/ai-photo-editing-prompts` 5, `/pricing` 1, `/contact` 1. This contradicts local audit, so the source gate is not catching rendered production HTML. |
| P0-5 Build-time SEO audit gate absent | RESOLVED_BUT_NEEDS_HARDENING | `package.json` has `seo:audit` and `deploy` chains `npm run build && npm run seo:audit && opennextjs-cloudflare deploy`; `npm run seo:audit` passes locally. However it currently misses the production rendered-alt failure, so harden it to audit rendered output or production HTML. |
| P1 og:url global | RESOLVED | Production page-level `og:url` matches route canonical on audited core pages. |
| P1 title length | MOSTLY_RESOLVED / P1_OPEN | `/ai-photo-editing-prompts` title is still 62 chars, slightly above 40–60 target. Other audited titles are within range. |

## `/prompts/[slug]` policy

PASS.

- Tested route: `/prompts/seo-recheck-thin-slug`
- Production status: 404
- Any `/prompts/` URL in sitemap: False
- Result: prompt detail pages remain not generated / non-indexable until unique content exists.

## Production audit table

|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---|---:|---|

## Deploy gate verification

Source `package.json` scripts:

```json
{
  "dev": "next dev",
  "next:build": "next build",
  "build": "opennextjs-cloudflare build",
  "preview": "npm run build && wrangler dev",
  "deploy": "npm run build && npm run seo:audit && opennextjs-cloudflare deploy",
  "deploy:raw": "opennextjs-cloudflare deploy",
  "verify": "node scripts/verify-site.mjs",
  "seo:audit": "node scripts/seo-audit.mjs",
  "cf-typegen": "wrangler types"
}
```

Local command result:

- `npm ci && npm run seo:audit`: PASS
- local audit artifact: `/root/.hermes/reports/site-aieditorrsp-20260528/07r2-seo-audit-local.json`
- caveat: current local audit passes because it checks source/fallback assumptions, not rendered production `<img>` attributes. The gate must be hardened before SEO_GO.

## Residual risk

1. P0: Missing production image alt persists on 18 rendered images across six routes.
2. P0-derived: `seo:audit` exists but has a coverage gap; it can pass while production fails image-alt SEO/accessibility.
3. P1: `/ai-photo-editing-prompts` title is 62 chars; trim to 40–60.
4. P2: External `lh3.googleusercontent.com` Stitch images remain a performance/control risk.
5. P2: `npm ci` reports 4 moderate vulnerabilities in the dependency chain; not an SEO blocker but should stay on launch risk log.
6. Exact keyword density remains below the historical 2.5%–3.6% band; accepted only under semantic-coverage waiver to avoid keyword stuffing.

## Required next inputs / remediation

Assign to frontend/dev:

1. Fix rendered production image alt, not only source-level fallback logic. Verify with fetched production HTML that every meaningful `<img>` has non-empty `alt`; mark purely decorative images explicitly and update the audit logic accordingly.
2. Harden `scripts/seo-audit.mjs` so it checks rendered output or deployed HTML for image alt, not just source template assumptions.
3. Trim `/ai-photo-editing-prompts` title from 62 chars to ≤60.
4. Re-deploy and run a third production SEO recheck.

## Final decision

SEO/GEO/AEO verdict: SEO_NO_GO.

Do not submit to GSC/Bing/IndexNow yet. Recheck after rendered image alt and audit-gate coverage are fixed on production.
