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-fundamentals 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/seo_checker.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 Fundamentals

Earning search visibility comes down to trustworthy content served on a technically sound site -- and the patience to let it compound.


E-E-A-T: the quality lens

Google's raters judge content through four overlapping qualities:

  • Experience -- evidence of first-hand use: real screenshots, original examples, lived detail.
  • Expertise -- demonstrated command of the subject and relevant credentials.
  • Authoritativeness -- recognition from others: links, citations, mentions in the field.
  • Trustworthiness -- HTTPS, honest claims, accurate and verifiable information.

Core Web Vitals

Metric Target What it measures
LCP under 2.5s Loading speed of the main content
INP under 200ms Responsiveness to user input
CLS under 0.1 Visual stability during load

Technical foundations

Crawlability and indexing

  • XML sitemap -- hands crawlers a map of your pages.
  • robots.txt -- declares what bots may and may not fetch.
  • Canonical tags -- consolidate duplicate or near-duplicate URLs.
  • HTTPS -- a baseline trust and ranking signal.

Delivery

  • Fast pages satisfy a Core Web Vital and keep users around.
  • Mobile-friendliness is a ranking factor in its own right.
  • Clean, readable URLs help both crawlers and people.

On-page content

The key elements

  • Title tag -- ~50-60 characters, lead with the primary keyword.
  • Meta description -- ~150-160 characters, written to earn the click.
  • H1 -- one per page, carrying the main topic.
  • H2-H6 -- a logical, nested outline.
  • Image alt text -- descriptive and natural, never keyword-stuffed.

What makes content rank

  • Depth -- cover the topic thoroughly enough to satisfy intent.
  • Freshness -- revisit and update when things change.
  • Originality -- add value that isn't already everywhere else.
  • Readability -- clear prose beats dense filler.

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.
