See the wheel live on georgepaladichuk.com/topic-wheel/ — navy WHAT, green HOW, gold WHY, orange Money-tree button. Every chip is a link.
This morning George Paladichuk’s personal brand site had a money tree and no topic wheel. /topic-wheel/ was a 404. Dennis’s own site already had a hand-drawn wheel; most of the fleet had neither, or had the tree without the wheel. The ask was not “draw George a graphic.” It was: every personal brand site shows a colorful, clickable topic wheel, tied to the money tree we also have on every site.
The pair, in one sentence
The topic wheel is what this person talks about. The money tree is which pages on their domain collect that talk into money. A site with only one of them is a map with no legend, or a legend with no map.
| Ring | Role | On the SVG |
|---|---|---|
| WHAT (center) | The offer | Navy disc, orange rim — George’s is NaiL A.I. |
| HOW (middle) | The methods | Green ring — four spokes |
| WHY (outer) | Stories and topics | Gold ring — every chip clickable |
Audience finds you outside-in (story → method → offer). You publish inside-out. Those ring names match dennisyu.com/topic-wheel. A Task Library skill for one-minute video queues historically named the rings the other way; the live site wins. We did not redraw Dennis’s hand-drawn wheel. We added the pairing aside so it and the money tree point at each other.
George first — the 22 chips
George already had /money-tree/ (post 190). The wheel is now page 193. Center is the product, not a blog index: NaiL A.I. → usenail.com. Four HOW spokes are the Content Factory rails we listed for him today (missed-call leak, dirty franchise data, brand damage, rooms you’re in). Twenty-two WHY chips match the 22 video ideas. Two already have live articles (AI hang-ups 4x’d; conference floor footage). The rest are on-page anchors so a chip is never a 404.
Verified 18 August 2026: HTTP 200, inline SVG with 28 <a href> inside the wheel, pairing marker on both pages.
Then every site we can actually write to
The fleet board lists 214 personal-brand rows. Application passwords exist for a subset. We shipped the pair on every personal-brand domain in that writable set, plus George via a logged-in Chrome nonce (his host has no app password in the store).

Not yet — and what unblocks them
camhazzard.com/money-tree/ is already 200. /topic-wheel/ is still 404. dylan-haugen.com has neither. jack-allard.com, nathanielstevens.com, markosipila.com, and the rest of the 214-row board are the same class of gap: no wp_sites[domain].app_pass in the store, so login-free publish cannot run. Mint cowork-dennis on those hosts (see application passwords), then python3 Topic-Wheel/from_site.py --site {domain} and python3 Topic-Wheel/publish.py --site {domain}.
Do not invent a money tree that links to pages that do not exist. from_site.py reads live REST pages and posts. A thin site gets a thin wheel. That is honest.
How we publish so wpautop cannot eat the diagram
- Inline SVG presentation — no SVG CSS classes for the wheel.
- Minify the SVG to one line before the REST write.
- Wrap in
<!-- wp:html -->. - Full Chrome User-Agent plus the matching browser header set on every REST call.
- Unknown flags on the publisher exit 2, so a typo cannot silently no-op.
Generator lives at Topic-Wheel/draw_wheel.py, publisher at Topic-Wheel/publish.py, live specs in Topic-Wheel/wheels/*.json.
The standard, written down
- Skill:
DealCon-Skills/topic-wheel-on-personal-brand.md— now mandated into every pack on the next daily propagate. personal-brand-website-agentgained required companion pages 10 and 11:/topic-wheel/and/money-tree/.- Method articles: Topic Wheel · Money Tree.
- Fleet of people (money page on the right): personal-brand-fleet.
What this run taught
A post with slug money-tree is not the same as the URL /money-tree/. On billybatt.com the first write landed at /blog/money-tree/ and the wheel’s orange button 404’d. The publisher now creates a page so the pretty permalink matches the pair. Verify the URL the visitor types, not the slug in REST.
