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-keyword 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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 170 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Keyword Research

Find the queries worth ranking for, classify them by intent, cluster them into topics, and prioritize what to produce. Stack-agnostic. Tool-agnostic (works with any keyword tool).


When to use

  • Starting a new site or content section
  • Planning a content calendar
  • Looking for ranking opportunities on an existing site
  • Understanding search intent before writing
  • Building topic clusters for internal linking
  • Identifying content gaps vs competitors

When NOT to use

  • Optimizing a single page where the target query is already known (use seo-onpage)
  • Comparing your site to a competitor across many dimensions (use seo-competitor)
  • Auditing existing content for performance (use seo-content-audit)

Required inputs

  • The site or topic area
  • The target audience and what they need
  • A keyword tool (Ahrefs, Semrush, Moz, Google Keyword Planner, or similar) OR access to search console for an existing site
  • Optional: 3 to 5 known competitors to seed the research

If no tool is available, the skill still works using SERP inspection and search console data alone, but the volume estimates will be rough.


The framework: 4 stages

Stage 1: Discover

Cast a wide net. Sources:

  • Seed terms from the brief or the user's vocabulary
  • Competitor keywords (any keyword tool will export these)
  • Search console queries for an existing site (find the page-1 and page-2 queries)
  • Related searches and "People also ask" in actual SERPs
  • Customer language (support tickets, sales calls, reviews)
  • Forum and community language (Reddit, niche forums, Stack Overflow)

Goal: 200 to 500 candidate keywords for a typical content sprint. More if planning a year of content.

Stage 2: Classify by intent

Every keyword maps to one of four intents. Get this right or the rest is noise.

Intent Signal Page type that wins
Informational "how to," "what is," "why," "best way to" Article, guide, tutorial
Navigational brand or product name + modifier Brand homepage, product page
Commercial "best," "review," "vs," "comparison," "alternatives" Listicle, comparison, review
Transactional "buy," "price," "deal," "near me," "for sale" Product page, category page

Changes

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.
