# Gold Mine: Content Intelligence Extraction Engine
Extract actionable intelligence from any content source and produce a structured extraction document mapped against your business, your voice, and your current priorities.
Gold Mine is a deep extraction engine. It reads a source and hands back the gold, organized and mapped to your world, ready to become content.
## Trigger Phrases
- "extract the gold"
- "gold mine this"
- "run gold mine"
- "run gold mine on this"
## Input Types
Gold Mine processes any of these:
- YouTube video transcripts
- Podcast episode transcripts
- Article text or URLs
- Twitter/X threads
- LinkedIn posts or article text
- Raw notes from conversations or calls
- Coaching call transcripts
- Client session transcripts
- Workshop or training session notes
- Book highlights or chapter excerpts
- Conference notes
- Newsletter content
If you drop content without specifying a type, infer it from context and proceed.
## Workflow
### Load Context
Before extracting anything, load the business context. Check for these in order:
1. **Brand context**: Look for any brand or voice files available in the current project or workspace (voice profile, positioning, ICP, competitive landscape, current priorities). If they exist, read them.
2. **Preferences and memory**: Reference any available context about the business, tools, and current focus areas from the conversation or saved memory.
3. **Previous Gold Mine extractions**: If past extractions exist, scan them briefly to avoid duplicate recommendations and to build on patterns already identified.
If no brand context exists, proceed with whatever context is available from the conversation. Do not ask to set up context first. Work with what you have.

## THE GOLD
Read the full transcript or content source and extract the raw signal. Organize into these seven categories. Go deep. Preserve the original signal. This is the raw gold.
**IMPORTANT**: If the source is a coaching call or client session, ANONYMIZE the person completely. Never use their name, company, industry specifics, or anything identifiable. Say "a client" or "someone I was coaching."
### 1. KEY INSIGHTS
Original ideas, frameworks, or perspectives that would make someone stop scrolling. Each insight is a bullet point with a **bold headline** followed by 2-3 sentences of explanation that capture the full depth of the idea.
Format:
- **[Bold headline].** [2-3 sentence explanation.]
- **[Bold headline].** [2-3 sentence explanation.]
### 2. QUOTABLE MOMENTS
Specific phrases or sentences from the source that hit hard. Use the actual words, not paraphrased. These are the lines that carry weight on their own.
Format:
- "[Exact quote]"
- "[Exact quote]"
### 3. QUESTIONS WORTH ANSWERING
The real questions asked during the conversation, or questions the content naturally raises. These matter because the audience is asking the same things. These are direct fuel for blog posts.
Format:
- [Question]
- [Question]
### 4. STORIES AND ANALOGIES
Any stories, metaphors, or real-world examples used to explain a concept. Each story is a bullet point with a **bold name** followed by 2-3 sentences of context that capture why it works.
Format:
- **[Story name]:** [2-3 sentences of context.]
- **[Story name]:** [2-3 sentences of context.]
### 5. TACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Specific actions, tools, or strategies recommended. Each recommendation is a bullet point with the **bold action or tool** followed by a brief explanation of what it does and why it matters.
Format:
- **[Action or tool]** — [brief explanation of what it does and why it matters]
- **[Action or tool]** — [brief explanation]
### 6. MINDSET SHIFTS
Moments where someone saw something differently. Each shift is a bullet point in from → to format.
Format:
- From "[old way of thinking]" → "[new way of thinking]"
- From "[old way of thinking]" → "[new way of thinking]"
### 7. FRAMEWORKS
Any structured thinking, step-by-step approaches, or named methodologies. Each framework gets a **bold name** followed by numbered steps or components as sub-bullets.
Format:
- **[Framework name]**
1. [Step or component]
2. [Step or component]
3. [Step or component]

## LANGUAGE AND FRAMING TABLE
A dedicated table of specific language, phrases, and framings worth adopting or adapting. This captures the positioning and voice gold that often gets lost in content consumption. These are ready-to-use phrases for blog posts, content creation, sales conversations, and presentations.
| Source Said | Your Version |
|---|---|
| [Original phrase or framing] | [Adapted version mapped to your positioning and voice] |
---
## CONTENT CONNECTION MAP
For the strongest extracted items, identify how each connects to content you can create. This is the bridge between the gold and your content pipeline.
| Gold Item | Content Angle | Format |
|---|---|---|
| [Insight, framework, or story name] | [Specific angle or question it answers for your audience] | [Blog post / Newsletter / LinkedIn / Podcast talking point] |
Include only items that have a clear, strong content connection. Do not pad this table.
---
## Output Format
Always output the extraction directly in the conversation as text. Do not create a separate file, document, or artifact unless you specifically ask for one.
The final document follows this structure exactly:
```
# Gold Extraction: [Source Title or Description]
**Source:** [Full source attribution with link if available]
**Date Extracted:** [YYYY-MM-DD]
**Lens:** [One line describing the extraction lens, e.g., "Gold for blog posts and coaching content"]

## Quality Standards
**Every extraction must preserve the raw signal.** Do not over-interpret or editorialize. The Gold is the raw material exactly as it came through in the source.
**Go deep on every category.** Do not rush through categories to get to the end. If a transcript has 8 key insights, extract all 8. If it has 12 quotable moments, capture all 12. Depth is the entire point.
**Prioritize insights that are SPECIFIC and ACTIONABLE over generic motivation.** If the source gave a tactical recommendation, a specific prompt, workflow, or tool suggestion, that is gold. Feature it prominently.
**If the source is a coaching call or client session, ANONYMIZE completely.** Never use a name, company, industry specifics, or anything identifiable.
**No fluff items.** Do not pad the extraction with generic observations or motivational takeaways. Every item earns its place by being useful as raw material for content or coaching.
**The Language and Framing Table captures what most people miss.** Take the time to find every phrase, reframe, and positioning statement worth adapting. This is where voice-level gold lives.
**The Content Connection Map must be honest.** Only include items with a clear content angle. If a gold item is valuable but has no obvious content path, it still belongs in The Gold. It just does not need a row in the map.
## Voice and Tone
Write the extraction document in your own voice and standards. Apply your brand voice guidelines if you have them.
**Do this:**
- Direct, clear, action-oriented language
- Conversational but precise
- Name the specific tools, files, and systems
- Speak in "you" throughout
- Be specific whenever you can be specific
## Session Close
After presenting the full extraction, offer:
1. **Create content from it**: "Ready to turn any of this gold into a blog post or content batch?"
2. **Go deeper on a category**: "Want me to expand any of these categories or pull more from a specific section of the source?"
Only offer options that are relevant to the conversation.
From then on, just drop in any transcript or article and say "Gold mine this."

Run Gold Mine on any source and you get back a clean extraction document — not a vague summary. These are the labeled sections of the real output, every time:
1 · Key Insights
The ideas that would make someone stop scrolling — each with a bold headline and enough explanation to capture the full depth.
2 · Quotable Moments
The exact lines that hit hard, word for word — the sentences that carry weight all on their own.
3 · Questions Worth Answering
The real questions the content raises — because your audience is asking the same ones. Direct fuel for blog posts.
4 · Stories & Analogies
Every story, metaphor, and real-world example — with context on why each one works.
5 · Tactical Recommendations
The specific actions, tools, and strategies recommended — what they do and why they matter.
6 · Mindset Shifts
The moments where someone saw things differently, captured in a clean "from → to" format.
7 · Frameworks — plus the Language Table and the Content Connection Map
Every named methodology broken into steps, a table of phrases worth adapting into your own voice, and a map showing exactly which pieces of gold can become a blog post, a newsletter, or a LinkedIn post. This is the bridge from consuming content to creating from it.
And if it's a client call?
Gold Mine anonymizes completely — no names, no company, nothing identifiable. Ever. The gold gets kept; the person stays protected. And the Content Connection Map only includes items with a real, honest content angle — it never pads the list to look impressive.
Keep stacking: pairs beautifully with Intelligence Extract
Gold Mine captures what was said. Intelligence Extract captures how an expert thinks — the terminology, workflows, and architecture you can build into your own systems.
Get Intelligence Extract →Because consuming content was never the goal.
Most people watch the podcast, nod along, and lose 95% of it by Thursday. Gold Mine exists because the value of great content isn't in hearing it — it's in what you build from it.
It preserves the raw signal
No over-interpreting, no editorializing. The gold comes through exactly as it came from the source — so what you build on top of it is built on something real.
Seven categories force depth
A summary gives you three takeaways. Gold Mine's structure makes Claude go category by category — if the source has 12 quotable moments, you get all 12, not the two easiest ones.
The Language Table catches what everyone else misses
The way something is said is often more valuable than what was said. Gold Mine captures the phrases and framings worth adapting — then maps them to your positioning and your voice.
It's mapped to YOUR world
Before extracting anything, the skill loads your business context — your brand, your priorities, your audience. The same podcast produces different gold for a coach than it does for a broker, and that's the point.
It ends where your content begins
The Content Connection Map is the handoff: this insight becomes a blog post, that story becomes a newsletter. You never end an extraction wondering "okay, now what?"
