What it checks

The og:image tag. og:title and og:description are optional because platforms fall back to <title> and the meta description, and X falls back to Open Graph when twitter:card is absent.

Why it matters

Links shared on social apps and chat show no preview image or a random one, reducing clicks.

Recommended fix

Add og:title, og:description, an absolute og:image (1200×630) and twitter:card.

How to verify

Paste the URL into a social preview checker and confirm the title, description and image appear.

Example fix prompt

Generic prompt (your report adds the evidence)
Please fix this production issue in my app.

Issue SEO-007: No social share image (og:image)
Site: https://your-app.example

First confirm the issue in the code or live config. If it is not present, say so and change nothing.
Task: Add Open Graph and Twitter card tags to the homepage: og:title, og:description, og:url, og:image (absolute URL to a 1200×630 image), and twitter:card=summary_large_image. Use the framework metadata API if it has one.

Constraints: make the smallest change that fixes this, keep the current design and behaviour, never paste secret values into code or chat, and tell me which files you changed.
Done when: Paste the URL into a social preview checker and confirm the title, description and image appear.
