summary

Guides creation of SEO-friendly URL slugs for blog posts, articles, and content pages. Research on 11.8M Google results shows shorter URLs tend to rank higher; position #1 URLs average 50–60 characters.

skill.md

Components: URL Slug

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Scope

URL slug: The path segment after the base (e.g., ai-people-search in /blog/ai-people-search)
Applies to: Blog posts, articles, guides, category pages, product pages

Best Practices

Length

Guideline	Target
Slug length	Under 60 characters total (including path prefix)
Word count	3–5 words
Principle	Shorter = easier to read, share, remember; less truncation in SERPs; see serp-features

Example: "The Complete Guide to AI Search Engine for Finding People" → ai-people-search (3 words) or ai-search-finding-people (4 words), not ai-search-engine-finding-people-speed-discovery-outreach (9 words, 51 chars).

Format

Rule	Do	Avoid
Separators	Hyphens (`-`)	Underscores (`_`), spaces, periods
Case	Lowercase only	Mixed case (causes duplicate content)
Characters	Letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), hyphens	Special chars
Stop words	Remove when possible: the, a, and, or, to	Keep when needed: "how-to"

Content

Rule	Guideline
Primary keyword	Include near start; one focus per URL
Descriptive	Clear what page is about from slug alone
No keyword stuffing	One keyword mention is enough
No dates	Omit unless time-specific (news, annual roundups)

Non-ASCII Characters

Scenario	Rule
Accented letters	Convert to ASCII: é→e, ü→u, ñ→n, ç→c
Non-Latin scripts	Use UTF-8 percent-encoding if required; prefer ASCII for compatibility
Example	`jalapeno` not `jalapeño`; `cafe` not `café`

Common Mistakes

Copy-pasting full title: Summarize instead — long title → short slug
Auto-generated IDs: /post/12847 — always customize
Tracking params in slug: UTM, session IDs — use query params separately
Changing without redirect: Always 301 from old to new slug

Slug Generation Workflow

Extract primary keyword from title or target keyword
Summarize in 3–5 words (don't copy full title)
Remove stop words (the, a, and, or) unless needed for readability
Lowercase, hyphenate, validate length < 60 chars
Check uniqueness — no duplicate slugs site-wide

Examples

Title / Topic	❌ Too long	✅ Recommended
AI Search Engine for Finding People: Speed vs. Discovery	`ai-search-engine-finding-people-speed-discovery-outreach`	`ai-people-search` or `ai-search-finding-people`
The Ultimate SEO Checklist for 2025	`the-ultimate-seo-checklist-for-2025`	`seo-checklist-2025`
How to Increase Website Traffic	`how-to-increase-the-traffic-to-your-website`	`increase-website-traffic`
Best Running Shoes for Marathon Training	`best-running-shoes-for-marathon-training-in-2025`	`best-running-shoes-2025`

Output Format

When creating or auditing a slug:

Recommended slug (3–5 words)
Character count (slug only)
Primary keyword included
Alternatives if multiple valid options
Reference: Alignify URL optimization

How to use url-slug-generator on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

›Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
›Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
›Active project directory or workspace where you want to add url-slug-generator

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/kostja94/marketing-skills --skill url-slug-generator

The skills CLI fetches url-slug-generator from GitHub repository kostja94/marketing-skills and configures it for Cursor.

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

Security & Verification Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

Use Cases▌

User Story & Requirements Generation

Create detailed user stories, acceptance criteria, and feature specs

Example

Generate user stories for 'password reset feature' with acceptance criteria, edge cases, and test scenarios

✓

Reduce spec writing time by 50%, ensure comprehensive coverage

Competitive Analysis

Research competitors, compare features, identify gaps

Example

Analyze 5 competitor products, create feature comparison matrix, suggest differentiation opportunities

✓

Complete competitive research in 2 hours instead of 2 days

Roadmap Prioritization

Example

Score 20 feature ideas using RICE framework, generate prioritized roadmap with rationale

✓

Make data-driven prioritization decisions faster

Stakeholder Communication

Draft PRDs, status updates, and stakeholder presentations

Example

Create executive summary of Q3 roadmap, monthly progress report, feature launch announcement

✓

Save 3-5 hours/week on communication overhead

Implementation Guide▌

Prerequisites

›Claude Desktop or compatible AI client
›Access to product documentation and roadmap tools (Jira, Notion, etc.)
›Understanding of product management frameworks (RICE, Jobs-to-be-Done, etc.)
›Stakeholder contact information and communication channels

Time Estimate

30-60 minutes to see productivity improvements

Installation Steps

1.Install product management skill
2.Start with user story generation for known feature
3.Progress to competitive analysis: research 2-3 competitors
4.Use for roadmap prioritization: apply RICE/ICE scoring
5.Draft stakeholder communications and refine based on feedback
6.Build template library for recurring PM tasks
7.Share effective prompts with product team

Common Pitfalls

⚠Not validating competitive research—verify facts before sharing
⚠Accepting user stories without involving engineering team
⚠Over-relying on frameworks without qualitative judgment
⚠Not customizing outputs to company culture and communication style
⚠Skipping stakeholder validation of generated requirements

Best Practices▌

✓ Do

+Validate research and competitive analysis with real data
+Collaborate with engineering when generating technical requirements
+Customize frameworks and templates to your company context
+Use skill for first drafts, refine with stakeholder input
+Document successful prompt patterns for PM tasks
+Combine AI efficiency with human judgment and intuition

✗ Don't

−Don't publish competitive analysis without fact-checking
−Don't finalize user stories without engineering review
−Don't make prioritization decisions solely on AI scoring
−Don't skip customer validation of generated requirements
−Don't ignore company-specific context and culture

💡 Pro Tips

★Provide context: company goals, constraints, customer feedback
★Ask for alternatives: 'Show 3 ways to prioritize this roadmap'
★Request stakeholder-specific formatting: 'Executive summary vs. engineering spec'
★Use skill for 70% generation + 30% customization to company needs

When to Use This▌

✓ Use When

Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid for strategic product vision (requires deep customer empathy), pricing decisions (needs market and financial expertise), or when face-to-face customer discovery is more valuable than speed.

Learning Path▌

1Basic: user stories, feature specs, status updates
2Intermediate: competitive analysis, prioritization frameworks, PRDs
3Advanced: product strategy, go-to-market planning, OKR setting
4Expert: product vision, market positioning, business model innovation
