About this skill

Article SEO + GEO Review

Review one article — a local Markdown draft or a published URL — for classic search optimisation (SEO) and generative engine optimisation (GEO: being retrieved, quoted, and cited by AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, and Perplexity). Every number comes from AIsa APIs; the LLM only interprets. Pipeline:

Keyword → SERP → Competitor → Content gap → SEO audit → GEO audit → Rewrite suggestions → Scorecard

Output: a Markdown scorecard (SEO 0-100, GEO 0-100, grade A-F, per-check evidence, prioritised rewrites, spend) and a JSON file with all raw evidence.

Requirements

Set an AIsa API key:

export AISA_API_KEY="your-aisa-api-key"

The script also reads AISA_API_KEY=... from ~/.aisa/credentials. Never print, log, or commit API keys. If the key is missing, ask the user to set AISA_API_KEY.

Compatibility

Works with any agentskills.io-compatible harness, including Claude Code, Claude, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Goose, OpenClaw, Hermes, and other runtimes that support skill folders.

Requires Python 3.9+ (standard library only) and AISA_API_KEY. Get a key at https://aisa.one.

When to Use

Use this skill for requests like:

  • "Review this article for SEO before we publish."
  • "Will AI Overviews or ChatGPT cite this post? What do I change?"
  • "Run a GEO audit on this URL."
  • "Compare my draft with the pages ranking for this keyword and list the content gaps."
  • "Give me an SEO + GEO scorecard and rewrite suggestions."

Do not use this skill for keyword research from scratch (use seo-keyword-research), full technical site audits, backlink audits, or writing the article itself.

Quick Start

# 1. Free, offline: deterministic on-page checks + provisional score
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/review_article.py audit draft.md

# 2. Show the paid calls and the spend estimate, no calls made
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/review_article.py review draft.md --dry-run

# 3. After the user approves the estimate: full review
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/review_article.py review draft.md --yes \
  --out review.md --json-out review.json --cache-dir .review-cache

# Published article (adds domain authority and "does any AI engine cite you" checks)
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/review_article.py review https://example.com/blog/post --yes --out review.md

The same commands work with python3 scripts/review_article.py ... from the skill root.

Spend approval protocol (required)

AIsa data endpoints are paid. Before any review, keywords, serp, competitors, or geo run:

  1. Run review <source> --dry-run and show the user the call table and the nominal and documented maximum totals.
  2. Wait for the user to approve that scope in their own words.
  3. Re-run with --yes. Without --yes the script prints the plan and exits with code 2. --max-usd (default 1.00) refuses plans whose documented maximum exceeds it.

Typical spend for a default run is USD 0.10-0.30 (draft) or USD 0.15-0.35 (URL). The report's Spend section lists every call with the cost DataForSEO reported. --cache-dir stores raw responses so re-runs and re-renders are free.

Core workflow

1. Load the article

  • Markdown: frontmatter title, description, slug, author, date, robots, schema are read; headings, links, images, lists, statistics, FAQ and TL;DR blocks are extracted. CJK text is word-counted by character and readability is marked n/a.
  • URL: /apis/v1/dataforseo/on_page/content_parsing/live returns the heading/paragraph structure; a direct fetch adds title, meta description, canonical, robots, JSON-LD types, image alt, author and dates.
  • Pass --site-domain example.com for drafts so internal links and "is my domain cited" can be evaluated before publishing.

2. Keywords

  • --keyword uses the user's target. Otherwise the AIsa LLM gateway proposes a primary keyword and up to five secondary keywords from the title, headings, and first 300 words (--no-llm falls back to a title n-gram heuristic).
  • Metrics: DataForSEO dataforseo_labs/google/keyword_overview/live (volume, difficulty, intent, CPC) cross-checked with SEMrush keyword-overview. --deep adds related_keywords and SEMrush question-keywords (USD 0.36).

3. SERP

serp/google/organic/live/advanced (depth 10) gives the organic top 10, People-Also-Ask questions, featured snippet, related searches, and whether an AI Overview is shown. serp/google/ai_mode/live/advanced returns Google's AI Mode answer with the pages it cites.

4. Competitors

The top --top (default 5) organic pages are parsed with on_page/content_parsing/live (headings, word count) and rated with SEMrush domain-overview (rank, organic traffic). The script computes the median word count and the heading terms that recur across competitors but are missing from the article.

5. GEO: what AI engines answer and cite

Engines (--engines, comma-separated; defaults marked *):

id Source Notes
dfs_ai_mode* Google AI Mode via DataForSEO answer + cited URLs
oxy_google_search* Google AI Overview via Oxylabs ai-search answer + publisher names
dfs_chatgpt* ChatGPT with web search via DataForSEO llm_responses answer + citations
dfs_perplexity* Perplexity sonar via DataForSEO llm_responses answer + citations
dfs_llm_mentions* DataForSEO llm_mentions/top_domains (google + chat_gpt) which domains AI answers cite most for the topic; ~USD 0.10 per platform
dfs_gemini, dfs_claude Gemini / Claude with web search opt-in
oxy_google_ai_mode Google AI Mode via Oxylabs opt-in

Oxylabs realtime through AIsa only serves Google sources; ChatGPT / Perplexity / Gemini / Claude answers therefore come from DataForSEO. --fast skips the LLM-response engines and the executive summary. Engines run in parallel; a failed engine is a data gap, not a crash.

6. Deterministic SEO and GEO checks

Every check has an id, a dimension, a weight, pass / warn / fail / n/a, the evidence, and a fix. Thresholds live in references/scoring.md; the GEO rubric and its grounding in Google's AI-features guidance live in references/geo-rubric.md. Highlights:

  • SEO: title 30-60 chars, meta 70-155, one H1, keyword in title / H1 / first 100 words / an H2 / slug, density 0.5-2.5%, word count ≥ 80% of competitor median, PAA coverage ≥ 50%, ≥ 2 external sources, image alt ≥ 90%, Flesch ≥ 50, author, date.
  • GEO: direct answer in the first 60 words, a quotable "X is …" definition, TL;DR block, ≥ 2 question-form headings, headings matching PAA, FAQ, ≥ 3 sourced statistics, no uncited figures, first-hand data or experience, sections ≤ 300 words, descriptive headings, schema hint, fresh date, no nosnippet / noindex, and (URL mode) whether any engine already cites the page.
  • llms.txt or "AI-specific" markup earns nothing: Google states it does not use them.

7. Rewrite suggestions and summary

The LLM receives the article outline, competitor outlines, PAA, engine answers and citations, and the failed checks, and returns up to 12 prioritised suggestions with example rewrites limited to facts already in the evidence. --no-llm substitutes the deterministic fixes. Model: --model or AISA_REVIEW_MODEL (default gpt-5.4-mini).

8. Scorecard

Dimension score = (pass weight + 0.5 × warn weight) / applicable weight × dimension max. n/a checks leave the denominator; a fully n/a dimension (for example Current AI visibility for an unpublished draft) is redistributed and noted. Overall = mean of SEO and GEO. Grade: A ≥ 85, B ≥ 70, C ≥ 55, D ≥ 40, else F.

Presenting results

  • Lead with the grade and the two totals, then the top three suggestions.
  • Quote check ids when explaining a score so the user can map fixes to evidence.
  • Separate facts (metrics, citations, SERP) from recommendations (LLM output).
  • Repeat the data-gap list; if an engine failed, say so rather than implying the page is not cited.
  • For a draft, remind the user that the AI-visibility dimension can only be measured after publishing (or with --site-domain).

Quality rules

  • Never invent search volume, difficulty, rankings, or citations; if a stage failed, report the gap.
  • Do not run paid stages before the user has seen the dry-run estimate and approved it.
  • Do not credit llms.txt, keyword stuffing, "AI rewrites", or artificial brand mentions.
  • Keep the primary keyword the user gave; propose alternatives separately if the data suggests a better one.
  • Keep raw exports private when they contain unpublished drafts or client domains.
