# Merlino Magic Blog - Research Gate Record

**Status:** PARTIAL -- the required live-research inputs are absent.  
**Requested keyword:** house cleaning service  
**Location:** Sarasota, Florida  
**Business input:** Flat Fee House Cleaners Sarasota, retained homepage capture only.

## Section 1 required evidence

| Required input | Result in this local-only run | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 8 to 15 exact PAA questions | Not collected | The skill requires exact wording from PAA research or DataForSEO SERP. |
| Top five ranking-page scan | Not performed | No browser/search/provider use was authorized. |
| Expected entities | Not asserted | These must come from the actual topic and ranking-page research. |
| Local signals | Not asserted beyond Sarasota name | Neighborhood, climate, regulation, and objection claims need verification. |
| Verified NAP and proof | Not treated as current | A retained capture can supply draft context but cannot verify a publish-ready record. |

## Safe pre-draft intent hypothesis

**Primary likely intent:** commercial investigation.  
**Hypothesis, not a measured search signal:** The reader may be comparing providers and trying to understand scope, trust information, scheduling, and pricing questions before contacting one.

## Draft-only featured-snippet structure

Do not publish this as a researched answer. Once exact PAA wording and current business facts are supplied, the first answer should define what a consumer should confirm: the cleaning scope, timing, provider process, and a written quote. It must not state a current price, availability, credential, review, or service-area promise without a verified source.

## Required resume inputs

1. A permitted current PAA or SERP data source.
2. Current top-five results or a source packet that permits comparison.
3. Approved current business facts and NAP, including authority to use them in schema.
4. Approval for any GMB post, social posting, schema publication, or outbound use.

## Deliberate stop

Sections 2 through 9 were not represented as complete because the skill says to gather real signals before writing and requires real PAA-mapped H2s, current local signals, and real values for publish-ready schema. Inventing those inputs would defeat the test.
