In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan keyword-position tracking, compare local and national rankings, monitor competitors, and study ranking changes and search-result features.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

seo-rank-tracker scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

seo-rank-tracker — Keyword Ranking Monitoring

Ranking Data Sources

Primary Sources

Source Data Type Pros Cons
GSC Search Performance Avg position (impressions-weighted) Free, real data, query-level Averaged, 2-day delay, sampled
CrUX + GSC combined Position + performance correlation Links CWV to rankings Requires both APIs
Third-party SERP APIs Exact position, SERP features Real-time, geo-specific Paid, rate-limited
Manual spot checks Visual SERP inspection Accurate, sees full context Doesn't scale

GSC Position Data Caveats

  • Position is impressions-weighted average — a page ranking #3 for 100 impressions and #50 for 10 impressions shows as ~7.3
  • Data is 2 days delayed (hourly granularity available via API since Dec 2025)
  • Positions are sampled for high-volume queries
  • Filter by device to see mobile vs desktop separately
  • Filter by country for geo-specific rankings

SERP Feature Tracking (2026)

Features to Monitor

Feature Prevalence Impact on Organic CTR
AI Overviews 48% of queries -34 to -46% CTR for positions below
Featured Snippets ~12% of queries +2x CTR if captured (Position 0)
People Also Ask (PAA) ~65% of queries Moderate — clicks distributed
Video Carousel ~20% of queries High for how-to/tutorial content
Image Pack ~30% of queries Moderate — drives image search traffic
Local Pack ~35% of local queries Very high — dominates local intent
Knowledge Panel ~20% of brand queries Builds trust, reduces clicks to site
Shopping Results ~25% of product queries High for e-commerce
AI Mode (Zero Links) Growing (180+ countries) 100% — no organic results shown

AI Overview Impact Analysis

When AI Overviews appear for your target queries:

  1. Cited in AIO: Position preserved, CTR may increase (trusted source signal)
  2. Not cited in AIO: CTR drops 34-46% even if ranking #1
  3. Strategy: Optimize for citation (see seo-geo skill) rather than just ranking

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
