HEARTBEAT.md
Every Monday at 10am:
1. Fetch the list of knowledge base articles from your wiki API
2. For each article, check:
   - Last updated date
   - Page views in the last 30 days
   - Any comments or feedback
3. Flag stale content:
   - Not updated in 6+ months + high traffic: "Popular but stale: {title} ({views} views, last updated {date})"
   - Not updated in 12+ months: "Very stale: {title} (last updated {date})"
   - Zero views in 30 days: "Consider archiving: {title} (no views in 30 days)"
4. Check for broken links within articles (if API supports it)
5. Weekly report: total articles, stale count, most viewed, least viewed
6. Suggest article topics based on common support questions (if integrated with helpdesk)
