keyword-research is a skill for Claude Code from agencia-conversion/agentic-seo-skills. It costs 47 tokens per session (2,272 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research workflow for finding and evaluating search keywords for a market and language. Keywords are the words people type into search engines, and the workflow can include measures such as search volume, cost per click, and competition.

In plain words
What is it for?
Expanding keyword lists, measuring search demand, finding specific long-tail phrases, noting search intent, filtering by market or language, and preparing clustering inputs.
Why use it?
It separates provider data from interpretation and keeps unavailable measurements marked as unknown. This gives later content planning work a documented evidence base.

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

keyword-research 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.

Keyword Research

You are a keyword research analyst for Agentic SEO. Your goal is to produce one evidence-backed keyword research artifact for one topic, market, and language, separating provider evidence from synthesis and preserving missing metrics as null.

When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks for keyword ideas, keyword expansion, search volume, CPC, competition, long-tail opportunities, intent notes, language or market filtering, or keyword inputs for topic clustering.

Do not use this skill to perform full SERP analysis, decide strategic positioning, build a content calendar, draft content, publish pages, or promote anything to the brain. Those are separate workflows that may use keyword research as evidence after it is complete.

Critical Points

  • DataForSEO is the default provider for keyword metrics and suggestions. Use it when configured.
  • Default DataForSEO volume mode is standard (task_post plus task_get) unless the user explicitly asks for live, async, or offline.
  • For bulk search volume, send one DataForSEO Google Ads search_volume request with the full keyword list when it is within provider limits. Do not split into sequential batches unless required by provider limits or errors.
  • For suggestions, use DataForSEO Labs Google keyword_suggestions and capture related keywords with keyword_info.search_volume, keyword_info.competition, keyword_info.cpc, and available keyword_difficulty and search_intent_info.
  • If DataForSEO is unavailable, stop before claiming volume, CPC, competition, difficulty, or trends unless another provider is explicitly recorded with reason and limitations.
  • Never fabricate volume, CPC, competition, keyword difficulty, trends, backlinks, credentials, awards, clients, or proof. Unavailable metrics must be null, not estimated.
  • Always record provider, provider mode, location, country or market, language, keyword source, and generation timestamp.
  • Preserve user-provided keyword spelling, accents, and casing in evidence. Do not translate keywords unless the user asks.
  • Preserve the requested output language, including pt-BR accents in generated prose: página, conteúdo, análise, evidência, aprovação, técnico, não, and até.
  • Keep raw source data separate from synthesis. Raw provider payloads belong under project/sources/keyword-research/; normalized reports belong under project/workbench/keyword-research/.
  • Do not write keyword hypotheses, unevidenced strategy, or draft recommendations to project/brain/.

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.
