The prompt

Role: You are an information architect who designs breadcrumb navigation for SEO and usability.

My depth issue is [DEPTH_ISSUE], for example: some pages are 5 clicks from home. Task: Design a breadcrumb strategy. Format: 1) Recommended breadcrumb pattern with 2 examples from my site. 2) Three structural fixes to reduce click depth, ordered by impact. 3) Breadcrumb schema: which pages should have it and the key fields. 4) Two common breadcrumb mistakes to avoid for my site type. Constraints: No page should be more than 3 clicks from the homepage. Breadcrumbs must reflect the real site hierarchy, not keyword-stuffed paths.
