+
+#### 3. **API Endpoints** ✅ COMPLETE
+**File:** `backend/routers/seo_tools.py` (1,100+ lines)
+
+**Endpoints Implemented:**
+
+| Endpoint | Method | Purpose | Status |
+|----------|--------|---------|--------|
+| `/api/seo/enterprise/complete-audit` | POST | Full audit execution | ✅ |
+| `/api/seo/enterprise/quick-audit` | POST | Quick audit variant | ✅ |
+| `/api/seo/gsc/analyze-search-performance` | POST | GSC analysis | ✅ |
+| `/api/seo/gsc/content-opportunities` | POST | Content roadmap | ✅ |
+| `/api/seo/enterprise/health` | GET | Health check | ✅ |
+
+**Request/Response Models** (Pydantic):
+- ✅ `EnterpriseAuditRequest` - Structured input validation
+- ✅ `GSCAnalysisRequest` - GSC parameters
+- ✅ `ContentOpportunitiesRequest` - Content opportunities input
+- ✅ `BaseResponse` - Standard response format
+- ✅ `ErrorResponse` - Error handling
+
+**Response Format:**
+```python
+{
+  "success": bool,
+  "message": str,
+  "timestamp": datetime,
+  "execution_time": float,
+  "data": {
+    # Audit results or analysis data
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Today's Implementation Work
+
+### 1. **Router Registration Added** ✅
+**File Modified:** `backend/app.py` (Line 670)
+
+**What Was Done:**
+```python
+# Include SEO Tools router with enterprise audit and GSC analysis
+if seo_tools_router:
+    app.include_router(seo_tools_router)
+```
+
+**Why This Mattered:**
+- Endpoints were implemented but NOT registered with FastAPI
+- Without registration, the routes were unreachable
+- Adding this line enables all endpoints at runtime
+
+**Location:** In the `if _is_full_mode():` block with other router registrations

+
+## ⚠️ Critical Blockers
+
+### Immediate Blockers
+1. **Backend endpoints not implemented** - Blocks all functionality testing
+2. **No mock data** - Prevents UI testing with real-like data
+3. **No LLM service setup** - Blocks insight generation
+4. **GSC authentication** - Needs verification in production
+
+### Recommended Next Action
+**Start Phase 2A.1 immediately:** Implement the 3 core backend endpoints to unblock testing and validation.

+
+## 📋 Phase 2A.2: LLM Integration (FOLLOWS PHASE 2A.1)
+
+### Once Backend Endpoints Working...
+
+#### Create LLM Service
+```python
+# backend/services/seo_tools/llm_insights_service.py
+class LLMInsightsService:
+    def generate_audit_insights(self, audit_result: EnterpriseAuditResult) -> List[ActionableInsight]:
+        prompt = self.build_audit_insight_prompt(audit_result)
+        response = llm_api.call(prompt)
+        return parse_insights(response)
+    
+    def generate_gsc_insights(self, gsc_result: GSCAnalysisResult) -> List[ActionableInsight]:
+        # Similar pattern
+        pass
+    
+    # 6 more methods for different insight types
+```
+
+#### Add LLM Endpoints (8 routes)
+1. `/api/seo-tools/llm/generate-audit-insights`
+2. `/api/seo-tools/llm/generate-gsc-insights`
+3. `/api/seo-tools/llm/generate-content-strategy`
+4. `/api/seo-tools/llm/generate-traffic-roadmap`
+5. `/api/seo-tools/llm/prioritized-recommendations`
+6. `/api/seo-tools/llm/quick-wins`
+7. `/api/seo-tools/llm/competitive-insights`
+8. `/api/seo-tools/llm/keyword-expansion`
+
+#### LLM Prompt Templates (Ready in Frontend)
+The `llmInsightsGenerator.ts` has all 8 prompt templates. Backend just needs to:
+1. Accept the prompt from frontend
+2. Call LLM API (Claude/GPT)
+3. Parse response
+4. Return formatted insights

+## ⚡ Quick Start for Phase 2A.1
+
+### 1. Create Service File Structure
+```python
+# backend/services/seo_tools/enterprise_seo_service.py
+from fastapi import HTTPException
+from typing import Optional, List
+
+class EnterpriseSEOService:
+    """Handles comprehensive enterprise SEO audits"""
+

+            technical = await self._technical_audit(website_url)
+            
+            # 2. Keyword research
+            keywords = await self._keyword_research(website_url)

+        pass
+    
+    # ... more methods
+```
+
+### 2. Add Routes
+```python
+# backend/routers/seo_tools.py
+from backend.services.seo_tools.enterprise_seo_service import EnterpriseSEOService
+
+router = APIRouter()
+enterprise_service = EnterpriseSEOService()
+
+@router.post('/enterprise/complete-audit')
+async def complete_enterprise_audit(website_url: str, competitors: Optional[List[str]] = None):
+    return await enterprise_service.execute_complete_audit(website_url, competitors)
+```
+
+### 3. Test Endpoint
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/seo-tools/enterprise/complete-audit \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"website_url":"https://example.com"}'

-#Problem:
-#
-#Finding websites for guest posts is manual, tedious, and time-consuming. Communicating with webmasters, maintaining conversations, and keeping track of backlinking opportunities is difficult to scale. Content creators and marketers struggle with discovering new websites and consistently getting backlinks.
-#Solution:
-#
-#An AI-powered backlinking app that automates web research, scrapes websites, extracts contact information, and sends personalized outreach emails to webmasters. This would simplify the entire process, allowing marketers to scale their backlinking strategy with minimal manual intervention.
-#Core Workflow:
-#
-#    User Input:
-#        Keyword Search: The user inputs a keyword (e.g., "AI writers").
-#        Search Queries: Your app will append various search strings to this keyword to find backlinking opportunities (e.g., "AI writers + 'Write for Us'").
-#
-#    Web Research:
-#
-#        Use search engines or web scraping to run multiple queries:
-#            Keyword + "Guest Contributor"
-#            Keyword + "Add Guest Post"
-#            Keyword + "Write for Us", etc.
-#
-#        Collect URLs of websites that have pages or posts related to guest post opportunities.
-#
-#    Scrape Website Data:
-#        Contact Information Extraction:
-#            Scrape the website for contact details (email addresses, contact forms, etc.).
-#            Use natural language processing (NLP) to understand the type of content on the website and who the contact person might be (webmaster, editor, or guest post manager).
-#        Website Content Understanding:
-#            Scrape a summary of each website's content (e.g., their blog topics, categories, and tone) to personalize the email based on the site's focus.
-#
-#    Personalized Outreach:
-#        AI Email Composition:
-#            Compose personalized outreach emails based on:
-#                The scraped data (website content, topic focus, etc.).
-#                The user's input (what kind of guest post or content they want to contribute).
-#            Example: "Hi [Webmaster Name], I noticed that your site [Site Name] features high-quality content about [Topic]. I would love to contribute a guest post on [Proposed Topic] in exchange for a backlink."
-#
-#    Automated Email Sending:
-#        Review Emails (Optional HITL):
-#            Let users review and approve the personalized emails before they are sent, or allow full automation.
-#        Send Emails:
-#            Automate email dispatch through an integrated SMTP or API (e.g., Gmail API, SendGrid).
-#            Keep track of which emails were sent, bounced, or received replies.
-#
-#    Scaling the Search:
-#        Repeat for Multiple Keywords:
-#            Run the same scraping and outreach process for a list of relevant keywords, either automatically suggested or uploaded by the user.
-#        Keep Track of Sent Emails:
-#            Maintain a log of all sent emails, responses, and follow-up reminders to avoid repetition or forgotten leads.
-#
-#    Tracking Responses and Follow-ups:
-#        Automated Responses:
-#            If a website replies positively, AI can respond with predefined follow-up emails (e.g., proposing topics, confirming submission deadlines).
-#        Follow-up Reminders:
-#            If there's no reply, the system can send polite follow-up reminders at pre-set intervals.
-#
-#Key Features:
-#
-#    Automated Web Scraping:
-#        Scrape websites for guest post opportunities using a predefined set of search queries based on user input.
-#        Extract key information like email addresses, names, and submission guidelines.
-#
-#    Personalized Email Writing:
-#        Leverage AI to create personalized emails using the scraped website information.
-#        Tailor each email to the tone, content style, and focus of the website.
-#
-#    Email Sending Automation:
-#        Integrate with email platforms (e.g., Gmail, SendGrid, or custom SMTP).
-#        Send automated outreach emails with the ability for users to review first (HITL - Human-in-the-loop) or automate completely.
-#
-#    Customizable Email Templates:
-#        Allow users to customize or choose from a set of email templates for different types of outreach (e.g., guest post requests, follow-up emails, submission offers).
-#
-#    Lead Tracking and Management:
-#        Track all emails sent, monitor replies, and keep track of successful backlinks.
-#        Log each lead's status (e.g., emailed, responded, no reply) to manage future interactions.
-#
-#    Multiple Keywords/Queries:
-#        Allow users to run the same process for a batch of keywords, automatically generating relevant search queries for each.
-#
-#    AI-Driven Follow-Up:
-#        Schedule follow-up emails if there is no response after a specified period.
-#
-#    Reports and Analytics:
-#        Provide users with reports on how many emails were sent, opened, replied to, and successful backlink placements.
-#
-#Advanced Features (for Scaling and Optimization):
-#
-#    Domain Authority Filtering:
-#        Use SEO APIs (e.g., Moz, Ahrefs) to filter websites based on their domain authority or backlink strength.
-#        Prioritize high-authority websites to maximize the impact of backlinks.
-#
-#    Spam Detection:
-#        Use AI to detect and avoid spammy or low-quality websites that might harm the user's SEO.
-#
-#    Contact Form Auto-Fill:
-#        If the site only offers a contact form (without email), automatically fill and submit the form with AI-generated content.
-#
-#    Dynamic Content Suggestions:
-#        Suggest guest post topics based on the website's focus, using NLP to analyze the site's existing content.
-#
-#    Bulk Email Support:
-#        Allow users to bulk-send outreach emails while still personalizing each message for scalability.
-#
-#    AI Copy Optimization:
-#        Use copywriting AI to optimize email content, adjusting tone and CTA based on the target audience.
-#
-#Challenges and Considerations:
-#
-#    Legal Compliance:
-#        Ensure compliance with anti-spam laws (e.g., CAN-SPAM, GDPR) by including unsubscribe options or manual email approval.
-#
-#    Scraping Limits:
-#        Be mindful of scraping limits on certain websites and employ smart throttling or use API-based scraping for better reliability.
-#
-#    Deliverability:
-#        Ensure emails are delivered properly without landing in spam folders by integrating proper email authentication (SPF, DKIM) and using high-reputation SMTP servers.
-#
-#    Maintaining Email Personalization:
-#        Striking the balance between automating the email process and keeping each message personal enough to avoid being flagged as spam.
-#
-#Technology Stack:
-#
-#    Web Scraping: BeautifulSoup, Scrapy, or Puppeteer for scraping guest post opportunities and contact information.
-#    Email Automation: Integrate with Gmail API, SendGrid, or Mailgun for sending emails.
-#    NLP for Personalization: GPT-based models for email generation and web content understanding.
-#    Frontend: React or Vue for the user interface.
-#    Backend: Python/Node.js with Flask or Express for the API and automation logic.
-#    Database: MongoDB or PostgreSQL to track leads, emails, and responses.
-#
-#This solution will significantly streamline the backlinking process by automating the most tedious tasks, from finding sites to personalizing outreach, enabling marketers to focus on content creation and high-level strategies.

+Canonical migrated backlinking module paths:
+
+- Router: `backend/routers/backlink_outreach.py`
+- Service: `backend/services/backlink_outreach_service.py`
+- Frontend API client: `frontend/src/api/backlinkOutreachApi.ts`
+- Frontend store: `frontend/src/stores/backlinkOutreachStore.ts`
+- Frontend UI integration: `frontend/src/components/SEODashboard/BacklinkOutreachModuleList.tsx`
+
+Invoke from backend:
+
+- `GET /api/backlink-outreach/modules`
+- `GET /api/backlink-outreach/query-templates?keyword=<keyword>`
+- `GET /api/backlink-outreach/migration-coverage`
+- `POST /api/backlink-outreach/discover` with JSON body: `{ "keyword": "...", "max_results": 10 }`
+- `POST /api/backlink-outreach/policy-validate` to enforce compliance/suppression/throttles before send
+- `GET /api/backlink-outreach/reporting` for send-volume and conversion snapshot
+- `POST /api/backlink-outreach/campaigns` and `GET /api/backlink-outreach/campaigns` for persisted campaign records (campaign-creator style storage flow)
+
+The modules endpoint returns migration identifiers: `backlink`, `outreach`, and `guest_post`.
+The query-template endpoint mirrors legacy `generate_search_queries(...)` behavior from `ToBeMigrated/ai_marketing_tools/ai_backlinker/ai_backlinking.py`.
+The migration-coverage endpoint summarizes what is already implemented vs planned from the legacy prototype roadmap.

-TASK:
+YOUR TASK:
-1. Provide a comprehensive summary (2-3 paragraphs) of the most important findings. Use Markdown for formatting (bolding, lists).
+==========
-2. Extract 3-5 "Key Insights". Each insight should have a title and a detailed explanation.
+As a podcast research expert, analyze this data and create content that will:
-3. For each insight, identify which source indices (e.g. 1, 2) it was derived from.
+1. Engage the specific target audience identified above
+2. Support the episode hook and key takeaways already planned
+3. Provide talking points that complement the guest's expertise
+4. Include a compelling call-to-action for listeners
 
-NOTE: The research data includes "Key Highlights", "Summaries", and "Excerpts" from various sources. 
+REQUIRED OUTPUT (JSON):
-Pay special attention to the "Key Highlights" sections as they contain the most relevant information extracted by the neural search engine.
+======================
-
-Return JSON structure:

-Requirements:
+IMPORTANT: You must include ALL fields above with valid data. expert_quotes, listener_cta_suggestions, and mapped_angles must have content - do NOT leave them empty!
-- Ensure insights are deep, not just superficial facts. Look for trends, expert opinions, and specific data points.

+# Agent Flat-File Context System Review
+
+## Scope
+This review documents the **current implementation** of ALwrity's onboarding flat-file context system and compares it to the proposed **Direct-to-File Virtual Shell (VFS)** model.
+
+---
+
+## 1) Present Implementation (What Exists Today)
+
+### 1.1 Storage model
+- Context is stored per user under:
+  - `backend/workspace/workspace_<safe_user_id>/agent_context/`
+- Files are JSON documents, one per onboarding domain:
+  - `step2_website_analysis.json`
+  - `step3_research_preferences.json`
+  - `step4_persona_data.json`
+  - `step5_integrations.json`
+  - `context_manifest.json`
+
+### 1.2 Writer and reader
+- `AgentFlatContextStore` is the core component that:
+  - sanitizes user IDs for path safety,
+  - writes documents atomically (`tempfile` + `os.replace`),
+  - sets restrictive file permissions (`0600` best effort),
+  - generates structured `agent_summary` objects,
+  - updates a manifest index of available documents.
+- Data is loaded by direct file reads from the same class (`load_stepX_context_document`).
+
+### 1.3 Read-path fallback chain
+`SIFIntegrationService` uses a strict fallback sequence for onboarding context retrieval:
+1. **flat file** (`AgentFlatContextStore`)
+2. **database** (`WebsiteAnalysis`, `ResearchPreferences`, `PersonaData`, etc.)
+3. **SIF semantic index** (`TxtaiIntelligenceService.search`)
+
+Step 5 uses `flat_file -> sif_semantic`.
+
+### 1.4 Producer flow (onboarding persistence)
+`StepManagementService` persists canonical snapshots to flat context when onboarding steps are saved:
+- Step 2 website analysis
+- Step 3 research preferences (and later competitor-enriched refresh)
+- Step 4 persona data
+- Step 5 integrations
+
+### 1.5 Context optimization currently implemented
+- Sensitive-key redaction in nested payloads (`api_key`, `token`, `secret`, etc.).
+- Size budgeting with trimming (`DEFAULT_MAX_BYTES = 300_000`) and trim metadata.
+- Generated summaries include:
+  - quick facts,
+  - retrieval hints (high-signal terms and suggested agent queries),
+  - domain-specific focus blocks.
+- Document context includes audience, retrieval contract, journey stage, related documents, and context-window guidance.
+
+---
+
+## 2) Comparison vs Proposed Direct-to-File VFS
+
+## Strong alignment
+The current system already matches the proposal in important ways:
+- **Direct-to-file persistence** instead of DB-backed retrieval for fast reads.
+- **Manifest/index concept** (`context_manifest.json`) that can act like a precomputed path map.
+- **Agent-first retrieval semantics** (summary-first contract and fallback policy).
+- **Operational safety controls** (atomic writes, redaction, path sanitization).
+
+## Gaps vs full virtual shell abstraction
+The following pieces are not fully implemented as described in your proposed architecture:
+- No explicit **virtual shell provider** (`IFileSystem`) exposing `ls/cat/grep/find` commands.
+- No always-live, process-level **in-memory `Map<virtualPath, absolutePath>`** for path lookups.
+- No native glob/query command layer for agent shell UX.
+- Not currently **read-only enforced at API surface** (writes are intentionally allowed by onboarding services to refresh context).
+
+---
+
+## 3) Practical Recommendation: Incremental VFS Evolution
+
+1. **Introduce a read-only VFS facade for agents**
+   - Keep `AgentFlatContextStore` as the write path for trusted onboarding services.
+   - Add `AgentContextVFS` read adapter exposing:
+     - `ls(path)` from manifest,
+     - `cat(path)` mapped to underlying JSON,
+     - `find(glob)` on virtual keys,
+     - `grep(query)` with path prefilter + stream scan.
+
+2. **Promote manifest to a first-class path map**
+   - Build and cache an in-memory map on service startup or first access.
+   - Refresh map when manifest `updated_at` changes.
+
+3. **Add explicit write policy boundaries**
+   - Agent-facing interface: hard read-only (`EROFS`).
+   - Internal system service interface: allow writes for onboarding synchronization.
+
+4. **Metadata strategy for grep ranking**
+   - Prioritize in order:
+     1) `agent_summary.quick_facts`
+     2) `agent_summary.retrieval_hints.high_signal_terms`
+     3) `document_context.context_type` and `journey.stage`
+     4) full `data` body
+
+---
+
+## 4) Response to the Metadata Header Question
+
+> "Does your current `.txt` optimization include specific metadata headers (like YAML frontmatter) that the grep tool should prioritize?"
+
+For this implementation, context is currently persisted as structured JSON (not `.txt` with YAML frontmatter). Equivalent high-value metadata already exists and should be prioritized for search/ranking:
+- `context_type`
+- `updated_at`
+- `agent_summary.quick_facts`
+- `agent_summary.retrieval_hints.high_signal_terms`
+- `document_context.journey.stage`
+- `document_context.related_documents`
+
+If you later move to `.txt` transport files, mirror these as frontmatter fields to preserve retrieval quality.
+
+---
+
+## 5) Bottom line
+Your current onboarding flat-file context implementation is already a strong "shim" architecture and close to the proposed model. The biggest missing piece is a dedicated virtual-shell read interface (`ls/cat/grep/find`) backed by a persistent path-map cache and a clear read-only contract for agent execution contexts.
+
+---
+
+## 6) Implemented Follow-up (VFS Adapter + Workspace Guide)
+
+The following enhancements are now implemented:
+
+1. **Auto-generated workspace map**
+   - The system now generates `workspace_<user>/README.md` whenever `context_manifest.json` is updated.
+   - The README includes:
+     - available context files,
+     - key signal hints from `agent_summary.retrieval_hints.high_signal_terms`,
+     - journey-stage hints,
+     - virtual path mappings and retrieval strategy guidance.
+
+2. **Read-only VFS facade**
+   - Added `AgentContextVFS` with:
+     - `list_context()` (`ls` equivalent),
+     - `search_context()` (`grep` equivalent; prioritizes `high_signal_terms` and `quick_facts`),
+     - `read_context_file()` (`cat` equivalent; large-file summary mode + subkey drilldown),
+     - explicit write rejection (`EROFS`).
+
+3. **Virtual path support**
+   - `/env/summary` maps to `AgentFlatContextStore.generate_total_summary()`.
+   - `/steps/website`, `/steps/research`, `/steps/persona`, `/steps/integrations` map to step documents.
+
+4. **System-prompt helper**
+   - Added `build_filesystem_header(user_id)` to inject a compact file availability + priority hint block into agent startup prompts.
+
+5. **Merged context helper in SIF integration**
+   - `SIFIntegrationService.get_merged_flat_context()` now provides a unified view across all available flat files while preserving existing per-step retrieval methods.
+
+6. **Basic file-level security hardening**
+   - Workspace and context directories are now explicitly forced to `0700`.
+   - Context and workspace files are written with strict `0600`.
+   - Added path sandboxing to ensure requested paths cannot escape user workspace roots.
+   - Restricted context-file loading to an allowlist of known onboarding context documents.
+   - Added deterministic per-user secret derivation from `.env` (`FILE_ENCRYPTION_SALT` + `safe_user_id`) with non-sensitive fingerprints for audit/debug and future encryption-at-rest rollout.
+
+7. **Tool-logic enhancement (coarse-to-fine search)**
+   - `search_context` now performs a two-pass retrieval:
+     1) high-relevance summary match pass (`high_signal_terms`, `quick_facts`),
+     2) parallelized stream scan pass over sandboxed allowlisted files for supporting details.
+   - Results include relevance labels, snippets, and line numbers for body matches.
+   - Large-result behavior now reports truncation guidance (show top 10 and suggest narrower keywords).
+   - `inspect_file` now provides token-saving behavior: full return for small files, or `agent_summary` + top-level keys for larger files, with key-level zoom-in support.
+
+8. **Retrieval robustness roadmap (next hardening phase)**
+   - **Query normalization:** Add synonym expansion and typo-tolerant matching (e.g., `tone` ≈ `brand voice`) before coarse/fine passes.
+   - **Confidence scoring:** Return confidence tiers that blend source freshness (`updated_at`), summary-match strength, and match density.
+   - **Field-aware boosting:** Weight matches by field priority (`high_signal_terms` > `quick_facts` > `data`) and document recency.
+   - **Deduplicated evidence:** Collapse repeated hits from the same file/key into one clustered result with a single best snippet and hit count.
+   - **Fallback query reformulation:** If zero hits, automatically retry with narrow/expanded variants and return attempted queries.
+   - **Answerability contract:** Add a lightweight `can_answer` signal in search responses so orchestrators can decide whether to ask follow-up questions or fetch more context.
+   - **Evaluation harness:** Track retrieval metrics over golden queries (`precision@k`, `MRR`, zero-hit rate, stale-hit rate) in CI to prevent relevance regressions.
+
+9. **Collaborative VFS namespace (shared memory mode)**
+   - Added optional `project_id` support to `AgentContextVFS` with isolated root: `workspace/project_<project_id>/`.
+   - Introduced `scratchpad/` for collaborative writes while keeping onboarding `agent_context` read-first.
+   - Added `write_shared_note(...)` with advisory locking (`flock`) and strict filename/path validation.
+   - Added append-only `activity_log.jsonl` via `append_activity_log(...)` for watchdog/event-driven coordination.
+   - Maintains owner-only permissions (`0700` scratchpad dir, `0600` files) and audit trails for shared writes.
+
+10. **Testing readiness upgrades**
+   - Added automated tests for:
+     - query reformulation + `can_answer` behavior in `search_context`,
+     - large-file progressive disclosure behavior in `inspect_file`,
+     - collaborative write path (`write_shared_note`) and append-only activity logging.
+   - Test module: `backend/tests/test_agent_context_vfs.py`.
+   - These tests provide a baseline regression harness for VFS retrieval quality and shared-memory safety.
+
+11. **Static + Structural retrieval hardening**
+   - Added a **static triage layer** in `search_context`:
+     - keyword-density scoring,
+     - `low_probability` flags for likely-noisy hits,
+     - `triage_top5` shortlist for router-style pre-filtering.
+   - Added `read_struct(filename, path_query)`:
+     - resolves dot/bracket JSON paths to return node-level data only,
+     - includes lightweight dependency injection (e.g., Step 4 persona reads include Step 2 brand voice context when available),
+     - keeps output token-efficient for downstream agents.

+# Backlink Migration Audit (Legacy vs Current)
+
+Legacy prototype reference:
+- `ToBeMigrated/ai_marketing_tools/ai_backlinker/ai_backlinking.py`
+- `ToBeMigrated/ai_marketing_tools/ai_backlinker/backlinking_ui_streamlit.py`
+
+## Implemented in current branch
+
+- Canonical backend entrypoint with backlink-specific naming:
+  - `backend/routers/backlink_outreach.py`
+  - `backend/services/backlink_outreach_service.py`
+- Legacy-style guest-post query template generation exposed over API:
+  - `GET /api/backlink-outreach/query-templates?keyword=<keyword>`
+- Migration traceability metadata endpoints:
+  - `GET /api/backlink-outreach/modules`
+  - `GET /api/backlink-outreach/migration-coverage`
+- Frontend integration points with backlink-specific naming:
+  - `frontend/src/api/backlinkOutreachApi.ts`
+  - `frontend/src/stores/backlinkOutreachStore.ts`
+  - `frontend/src/components/SEODashboard/BacklinkOutreachModuleList.tsx`
+
+## Not yet migrated (planned)
+
+- Live web prospect discovery / scraping execution loop (`find_backlink_opportunities`).
+- Outreach email sending + reply monitoring loop (`send_email`, IMAP checks).
+- End-to-end campaign orchestration from keyword batch -> outreach -> follow-up.
+
+## Notes
+
+This branch intentionally provides a clean migration seam and auditable entrypoints first.
+Feature-complete parity can now be implemented incrementally behind these stable backend and frontend contracts.
