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-gsc-compare 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.

GSC Compare — Period-over-Period Comparison

@skills/seo/references/mcp-degradation.md @skills/seo/references/gsc-api-reference.md

Compares GSC performance between two date periods — by default month-over-month (last 28 days vs prior 28 days). Surfaces top movers by page and query with directional indicators.

MCP Check

Before calling any GSC tool, verify the MCP is connected:

  1. Use ToolSearch with query +google-search-console
  2. If tools returned — note the actual tool name prefix, proceed to Inputs
  3. If no tools returned — display the GSC MCP error template from references/mcp-degradation.md and stop:
## Google Search Console MCP Not Available

The `/seo gsc compare` command requires the GSC MCP, which is not currently connected.

**What you can do:**
- Use `/seo technical <url>` for crawlability and indexability analysis (no live data)
- Use `/seo audit <url>` for a full static SEO audit

**To connect GSC MCP:**
- Install and configure a Google Search Console MCP server (see README for setup)
- Add it to ~/.claude/mcp.json at user scope (NOT project scope)
- Verify GSC property access before running commands (domain vs URL prefix format)
- See references/gsc-api-reference.md for property format details

Inputs

  • site: The GSC property URL. Accept both formats:
    • Domain property: sc-domain:example.com
    • URL prefix: https://example.com or https://www.example.com
    • If user provides a bare domain (no prefix), call list_sites to identify the correct property format registered in GSC.
  • type (optional): Comparison type — mom (default), yoy, or custom
  • current_start, current_end, previous_start, previous_end (optional): Only used when type=custom. Accept YYYY-MM-DD format.

Date Calculation

Use Bash to calculate comparison periods based on the requested type. GSC has ~3 day delay — all end dates use today-3.

Month-over-month (MoM, default):

currentEnd=$(date -v-3d +%Y-%m-%d)
currentStart=$(date -v-31d +%Y-%m-%d)
previousEnd=$(date -v-31d +%Y-%m-%d)
previousStart=$(date -v-59d +%Y-%m-%d)
comparisonLabel="Month-over-Month (last 28 days vs prior 28 days)"

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.
