seo-strategy
Skill1 starsChanged 30 days agoMITView on GitHub
Builds SEO strategy and new angles: playbooks by site stage and type (new domain, comparison site, local, publisher, SaaS, YMYL, multi-locale), a register of out-of-the-box ideas each with mechanism, evidence label, per-engine policy check and test recipe, and a catalogue of official docs, tools and datasets. Use for "SEO roadmap", "where do we start", "creative SEO ideas", "best SEO tools". Not for auditing a page (seo-optimizer).

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 10 edited versions we read keep these.
3
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 14
Never forecast a published number onto a client site.
- Very specific: line 15
No rollout without a pre-declared revert rule (applicability, holdout, what stays fixed, metric + window, trigger).
- Distinctive: line 43
Every playbook step carries an evidence label and passes the policy gate before it is planned.
- Distinctive: line 46
No traffic forecast from published numbers.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 10 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
seo-strategy
Where to start, in what order, which engines matter per market, and which new ideas are worth a test.
<!-- grammar-excerpt -->Label every tactic with one of the 9 marks: [documented: <URL>, <date>] · [documented-secondary: …] · [unverified: …] · [measured: MARK, n=S, c=C] · [practitioner: anonymised sources · …] · [hypothesis] · [vendor] · [memory] · [unvalidated house heuristic].
Numbers keep their denominator; marks are counts, not verdicts; bundles support direction, not size.
Never forecast a published number onto a client site; only the client's own GSC demand and funnel forecast.
No rollout without a pre-declared revert rule (applicability, holdout, what stays fixed, metric + window, trigger).
Repetition never proves; full grammar: skill seo-optimizer § Evidence marks.
<!-- /grammar-excerpt -->Load rule
Open one reference per load-when row the question touches (a "by H2" row: only the part holding that H2); never a file "to be thorough". A pointer into another seo- skill's file is a citation: quote it, or first load that skill's SKILL.md and open the file through its own load-when row. Engine pages, ledger and practitioner parts and the crawler registry are lookup-only.
Load when
| ID | Question shape | Open |
| ST1 | roadmap, strategy, "where do we start", which engines per market | strategy-playbooks.md |
| ST2 | out-of-the-box ideas | ideas-register.md |
| ST3 | tools, docs, datasets | by H2: part 1 (official engine documents) or part 2 (tools by job, datasets, communities) |
| ST5 | which tactic for which job | tactics-by-job.md |
Not mine
| Question | Skill |
| auditing a page or route | seo-optimizer |
| what an engine forbids | seo-engine-policies |
| does a tactic work | seo-evidence |
| implementing a step | the owning skill named in the playbook step |
Rules
- Every playbook step carries an evidence label and passes the policy gate before it is planned.
- An idea row is a hypothesis with a test recipe and a kill condition, never a promise.
- Banned tactics appear only under "Tempting, and banned", with the policy cite and its condition; a refusal stricter than the policy is marked as a house rule.
- No traffic forecast from published numbers; only from the client's own demand data.
- Market share and engine reach are stated only with a dated source.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
