rank-monitor

rank-monitor is a skill for Claude Code from indranilbanerjee/digital-marketing-pro. It costs 141 tokens per session (2,544 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A search-ranking monitor that records keyword positions in Google and checks them over time. It can also track ownership of special search-result sections, such as featured snippets and AI Overviews.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to capture a starting position, run scheduled checks using Google Search Console or connected ranking services, and review changes for target keywords. The optional feature mode compares which special search-result sections appear and whether the brand appears in them.
Why use it?
It helps find important ranking drops before they go unnoticed. It separates small changes from major or critical declines and alerts you when action may be needed.

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

rank-monitor 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 5d 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.

Purpose

Set up and manage keyword ranking monitoring — and, with --features, SERP-feature tracking in the same run. Track target keyword positions across Google, establish baselines, detect drops greater than 5 positions, and generate alerts when rankings change significantly. In --features mode, also track which SERP features appear for each query (AI Overviews, Featured Snippets, People Also Ask, Knowledge Panels, Local Pack, Image Pack, Video Carousel, Shopping) and whether the brand owns them. This gives ongoing visibility into organic performance — catching ranking declines early, spotting upward trends, and tracking the increasingly feature-rich results page.

Merged skill (was rank-monitor + serp-tracker). SERP-feature tracking is now the --features mode of this one skill. The old /digital-marketing-pro:serp-tracker is a deprecation pointer to here.

Data sources (read this before configuring)

  • Google Search Console MCP is the authoritative position + impressions source for verified properties. GSC returns per-query/per-page positions, impressions, clicks, and CTR — it does not return the full per-query SERP-feature layout or AI Overview citation lists. Do not claim otherwise.
  • Rank-tracker MCPs (Ahrefs / Semrush / SE Ranking, if connected) fill in positions for keywords/competitors GSC can't see and provide their own SERP-feature flags.
  • Moz MCP (mcp-moz) is optional — verify the package exists on npm before use (npm view mcp-moz); npx executes remote code, so don't wire an unverified package. If Moz isn't connected, use GSC + whichever rank-tracker MCP the brand already has.
  • AI Overview presence in --features mode records only whether an AI Overview appeared and whether the brand was cited in it (a binary SERP-feature signal). For scored AI-visibility measurement across the 6 canonical AI surfaces, use /digital-marketing-pro:geo-monitor / /digital-marketing-pro:aeo-audit (the canonical AI-visibility scoring standard) and, for actual impressions, /digital-marketing-pro:gsc-ai-performance. Do not re-implement AI-visibility scoring here.

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.
