The seo skill is a practical SEO analysis system for audits, page reviews, schema checks, Core Web Vitals, sitemap issues, content quality, and local visibility. Install it when you need seo for Keyword Research, technical triage, or a structured workflow for any website or business type.
This skill scores 84/100, which means it is a solid directory listing candidate: users get a clearly triggerable SEO workflow with enough operational detail to install confidently, though they should still expect some complexity from the multi-skill orchestration. The repository evidence supports real utility rather than a placeholder, and the install decision is meaningfully informed by the documented commands, scope, and references.
- Explicit triggerability: the frontmatter marks it user-invokable and lists SEO-related triggers plus `/seo audit`, `/seo page`, `/seo schema`, `/seo sitemap`, and other commands.
- Strong operational depth: the skill body is substantial, with a quick reference, 10 H2s, code fences, and support references covering CWV, E-E-A-T, local SEO, schema, backlinks, and maps.
- Good install-value evidence: it targets multiple use cases and industries, including SaaS, local services, e-commerce, publishers, and agencies, which broadens reuse potential.
- Complexity is high: the skill orchestrates 21 specialized sub-skills and 18 subagents, so users may need to learn its command structure before getting full value.
- No install command is provided in SKILL.md, so setup or integration steps are less explicit than the workflow itself.
Overview of seo skill
What seo does
The seo skill is a practical SEO analysis system for audits, page reviews, schema checks, Core Web Vitals, sitemap issues, content quality, and local/search visibility questions. It is best for users who want a real decision-making workflow, not just a generic SEO prompt.
Who should install it
Install this seo skill if you work on SaaS, e-commerce, local business, publisher, or agency sites and need faster diagnosis of what is blocking organic growth. It is especially useful when you need seo for Keyword Research, technical triage, or a structured way to inspect a URL before recommending changes.
Why it is different
The main value is orchestration: the skill routes requests into specialized SEO paths instead of forcing one broad answer. The repository also includes focused reference files for E-E-A-T, Core Web Vitals, schema types, local SEO, maps, and backlink quality, which gives the model better guardrails than a plain prompt.
How to Use seo skill
Install and trigger it
Install with npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-seo --skill seo. Then invoke it with a command plus a URL or target, for example seo audit https://example.com or seo page https://example.com/product. In practice, the seo install step matters because the skill expects the repository context and command-style usage, not a vague request.
Give the right input shape
Strong seo usage starts with a clear job: audit, page review, schema, sitemap, technical, images, or local. Better prompts include the site type, target market, and what success looks like. For example: “Run seo audit on this SaaS homepage and focus on indexability, INP risk, and missing schema” is more actionable than “Check my SEO.”
Read these files first
Start with SKILL.md to understand commands and routing, then inspect references/quality-gates.md, references/cwv-thresholds.md, and references/eeat-framework.md for the rules that affect output quality. If the task is local or map-driven, also read references/local-seo-signals.md, references/local-schema-types.md, and references/maps-gbp-checklist.md.
Work the repo in layers
Use the main command to get the first pass, then narrow the follow-up. For seo for Keyword Research, ask the model to separate intent, topical gaps, and page-type recommendations rather than only listing keywords. For technical jobs, specify whether you need crawlability, indexability, schema validity, or content improvements so the result stays focused.
seo skill FAQ
Is seo better than a normal prompt?
Yes, when you need repeatable SEO analysis with structured outputs and fewer missed checks. A normal prompt can answer one-off questions, but the seo skill is stronger when you want a consistent workflow across audits, page analysis, schema, and quality review.
Does this seo skill fit beginners?
Yes, if you can provide a URL and a goal. Beginners get the most value when they ask for one specific outcome, such as “find indexation blockers” or “review this page for schema opportunities,” instead of asking for a full strategy in one step.
When should I not use it?
Do not use the seo skill if you only want a short copy edit, a brand-style opinion, or pure paid ads advice. It is also not ideal when you have no URL, no target page, and no context for the business model, because the output will be less precise.
Does it cover local, schema, and AI search?
Yes. The repository supports local SEO, schema markup, Core Web Vitals, and GEO-style visibility concerns for AI Overviews and similar systems. If your task is local, you will get better results by naming the business type and location intent up front.
How to Improve seo skill
Give constraints before asking for recommendations
The best seo results come from constraints: CMS, stack, access level, target country, and what you cannot change. A prompt like “Audit this ecommerce category page for issues we can fix without code changes” produces more useful output than a general review.
Ask for evidence, not just advice
Require the model to separate observations, impact, and next actions. For example: “List the top 5 problems, cite the likely SEO effect, and rank fixes by effort” helps avoid generic recommendations and makes the seo skill more decision-ready.
Use the right follow-up loop
After the first pass, narrow the request to one system at a time: crawlability, schema, content depth, backlinks, or local pack signals. This is where seo for Keyword Research and seo usage improve most, because the second prompt can turn broad findings into a tighter implementation plan.
Watch for common failure modes
The biggest mistakes are asking for too much at once, hiding the business type, and accepting broad advice without prioritization. If the output is thin, re-run the seo skill with a single page, a single query intent, or a single issue class so the next iteration has a cleaner target.
