# Amazon Title Optimizer
Bring Amazon product titles into the **75-character title cap** — best in
class, preserving ranking and relevancy, not merely truncating — and write
**Item Highlights** (the ≤125-character searchable field shown below the
title) that carry the keywords the shorter title can no longer hold.
This skill is the public distillation of the workflow Right Side Up's
marketplace team uses on real client catalogs. Two success tiers, never
confused with each other:
1. **Compliance is a hard, measured gate.** Over-limit titles are rejected by
Amazon outright; content-policy violations trigger *silent search
suppression* (the listing stays live but stops surfacing). Binary — a
title that "mostly fits" is a fail.
2. **Ranking is best-effort, grounded in evidence.** Every allocation choice
maps to a documented retrieval-model principle, never to folklore.
## The one rule that governs everything
**You optimize; the validator enforces.** Write every rewrite with full
ranking judgment — then run `scripts/validate.mjs` on your own output and let
it decide what ships. LLMs (you included) miscount characters and miss policy
edge cases under load; a deterministic script never does. Never deliver a
title the validator rejects, never "eyeball" a character count, and never
edit the validator to make a failing title pass.
## Workflow
### Step 0 — Gather inputs
Collect these before rewriting (ask only for what's missing; sensible
defaults in parentheses):
