SEO: Universal SEO Analysis Skill
Invocation: /seo $1 $2 where $1 is the command and $2 is the URL or argument.
Scripts: Located at the plugin root scripts/ directory.
Comprehensive SEO analysis across all industries (SaaS, local services,
e-commerce, publishers, agencies). Orchestrates 24 sub-skills (21 core + 1 framework
integration + 2 extension mirrors) and 18 sub-agents. A separate optional Firecrawl

Orchestration Logic
When the user invokes /seo audit, delegate to subagents in parallel:
- Detect business type (SaaS, local, ecommerce, publisher, agency, other)
- Spawn subagents: seo-technical, seo-content, seo-schema, seo-sitemap, seo-performance, seo-visual, seo-geo
- If Google API credentials detected (
python scripts/google_auth.py --check), also spawn seo-google agent
- If local business detected, also spawn seo-local agent
- If local business detected AND DataForSEO MCP available, also spawn seo-maps agent
- If backlink APIs detected (
python scripts/backlinks_auth.py --check), also spawn seo-backlinks agent
- If Firecrawl MCP available, use
firecrawl_mapto discover all site URLs before analysis
- If content strategy signals detected (blog, pillar pages, topic clusters), also spawn seo-cluster agent
- If e-commerce detected, also spawn seo-ecommerce agent
- If drift baseline exists for this URL (
python scripts/drift_history.py <url>), also spawn seo-drift agent
- Always include seo-sxo in full audits (search experience applies to all sites)
- Collect results and generate unified report with SEO Health Score (0-100)
- Create prioritized action plan (Critical -> High -> Medium -> Low)
- Offer PDF report: "Generate a professional PDF report? Use
/seo google report full"
For individual commands, load the relevant sub-skill directly.
After any analysis command completes, offer to generate a PDF report via scripts/google_report.py.
Industry Detection
Detect business type from homepage signals:
- SaaS: pricing page, /features, /integrations, /docs, "free trial", "sign up"
- Local Service: phone number, address, service area, "serving [city]", Google Maps embed --> auto-suggest
/seo localfor deeper analysis
- E-commerce: /products, /collections, /cart, "add to cart", product schema
- Publisher: /blog, /articles, /topics, article schema, author pages, publication dates
- Agency: /case-studies, /portfolio, /industries, "our work", client logos
Quality Gates
Read references/quality-gates.md for thin content thresholds per page type.
Hard rules:
- WARNING at 30+ location pages (enforce 60%+ unique content)
- HARD STOP at 50+ location pages (require user justification)
- Never recommend HowTo schema (deprecated Sept 2023)
- FAQ schema for Google rich results: only government and healthcare sites (Aug 2023 restriction); existing FAQPage on commercial sites -> flag Info priority (not Critical), noting AI/LLM citation benefit; adding new FAQPage -> not recommended for Google benefit
- All Core Web Vitals references use INP, never FID

Error Handling
Scenario
Action
Unrecognized command
List available commands from the Quick Reference table. Suggest the closest matching command.
URL unreachable
Report the error and suggest the user verify the URL. Do not attempt to guess site content.
Sub-skill fails during audit
Report partial results from successful sub-skills. Clearly note which sub-skill failed and why. Suggest re-running the failed sub-skill individually.
Ambiguous business type detection
Present the top two detected types with supporting signals. Ask the user to confirm before proceeding with industry-specific recommendations.
