Claude SEO: SEO Skill for Claude Code

Claude SEO is an open-source SEO analysis plugin for Claude Code. It runs 25 sub-skills and 18 specialist agents in parallel across technical SEO, content quality (E-E-A-T), Schema.org markup, AI search optimization (GEO), local SEO, e-commerce, and international SEO. Every audit produces a prioritized action plan with testable recommendations grounded in primary-source guidance from Google.

Two versions of this skill.

• 🌐 Public open-source → AgriciDaniel/claude-seo: MIT, public releases, no membership. Use this if you want stable + downloadable.
• 🔒 Community private mirror → AI-Marketing-Hub/claude-seo: early access to upcoming features and direct collaboration with the AI Marketing Hub Pro community. Requires membership.

Why Claude SEO

• AI-search first. Aligned with Google's AI Optimization Guide. Question-based citability scoring, primary-source evidence on llms.txt, IPTC TrainedAlgorithmicMedia for AI-generated product images, agent-friendly page checks per web.dev.
• Parallel execution. Full site audits spawn up to 15 specialist agents simultaneously. Site-level audits complete in minutes rather than hours.
• Falsifiable, not promotional. Every recommendation carries the first-principle observation it rests on, its dependency relationships, an explicit "how would we know this failed?" check, and a leading indicator. See Methodology.

Real results

Google Search Console for a site started 23 March 2026 and run on this workflow: total clicks and impressions across its first three months, through 12 June 2026.

Using Codex instead of Claude Code? Use Codex SEO, the Codex-first port with TOML agents, plugin packaging, deterministic runners, and the same SEO workflow surface.

Who this is for

• SEO agencies running 5+ client sites. Replace quarterly deep audits with weekly automated runs. Same team capacity, 4× audit cadence, every recommendation comes with a falsifiability check the client can verify.
• In-house SEO leads at SaaS / publisher / e-commerce companies. Second-pair-of-eyes before executive reviews. Catches what GSC and Lighthouse hide: schema deprecation, AI-citability gaps, expired-domain heritage risk, parasite-SEO exposure, machine-translation drift.
• Freelance SEO consultants. Anchor day-one client scope with a 15-minute audit and a real 0-100 score. Win the engagement with concrete proof of value before you spend an hour writing the proposal.

Installation

ℹ️ Which version are you installing?

• Public open-source (default). The commands below install from AgriciDaniel/claude-seo — MIT, public releases, no membership required.
• AI Marketing Hub Pro member? Install the community version with early access instead: swap AgriciDaniel/claude-seo for AI-Marketing-Hub/claude-seo and the plugin slug claude-seo@agricidaniel-claude-seo for claude-seo@ai-marketing-hub-claude-seo. Requires gh auth login (or PAT) with access to the AI-Marketing-Hub org. If /plugin marketplace add 404s, DM in the Skool community to get added.

Plugin Install (Claude Code 1.0.33+)

The fastest path. One-time marketplace add, then plugin install:

/plugin marketplace add AgriciDaniel/claude-seo
/plugin install claude-seo@agricidaniel-claude-seo

Manual Install (Unix / macOS / Linux)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-seo.git
bash claude-seo/install.sh

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-seo/main/install.sh > install.sh
cat install.sh        # review before running
bash install.sh
rm install.sh

Windows (PowerShell)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-seo.git
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File claude-seo\install.ps1

Why git clone instead of irm | iex? Claude Code's own security guardrails flag irm ... | iex as a supply chain risk: downloading and executing remote code without verification. The git clone approach lets you inspect claude-seo\install.ps1 before running it.
