# The Authority Canon Builder

Build your 3-layer authority architecture for GEO: canon (core beliefs that are always true), frameworks (how canon becomes usable), and diagnostics (where your reader is right now). Makes AI engines recognize you as the voice worth citing.

MY PROFESSIONAL DOMAIN: $ARGUMENTS

MY AUDIENCE: [clients / peers / media / AI engines / all / "you decide"]
DEPTH: [STARTER for 3-5 canon beliefs / FULL for 7-10 with complete framework cascade / "you decide"]

STEP 1 — CANON EXCAVATION: 5-10 candidate beliefs → filter to those that generate downstream frameworks → test: would a peer disagree?
STEP 2 — FRAMEWORK CASCADE: 1-3 frameworks per canon belief → name + derivation link + steps + what it replaces + boundary conditions
STEP 3 — DIAGNOSTIC LAYER: Per framework: 3-5 assessment questions → stage indicators → failure patterns → framework routing
STEP 4 — CONSISTENCY MAP: Canon → Frameworks → Diagnostics cascade + cross-connections + 10-15 signature phrases + repetition strategy
STEP 5 — GEO APPLICATION: Content angles per belief + signature pieces per framework + schema signals (FAQ/HowTo/Article) + linking structure
STEP 6 — VERIFICATION: First principles vs. conventional wisdom? Frameworks derive from canon? Diagnostics specific enough? Language bank distinctive?
