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

Usage

Use when planning content around a topic before writing, building a keyword map for a new content area, finding question-based keywords for GEO optimization, or identifying gaps where competitors rank and you don't.

Process

Step 1: Gather Inputs

Ask the user for:

  1. Seed topic or keyword — e.g., "AI search optimization", "B2B SaaS customer acquisition"
  2. Country code (optional) — for localised volumes (default: "us")
  3. Competitor domain(s) (optional) — to identify keyword gaps
  4. Number of clusters (optional) — default: let the data dictate

Step 2: Validate & Prepare

  • Confirm the Keywords Everywhere MCP server is connected. If not configured, tell the user — this skill requires it.
  • Check credit balance with Get Credit Balance before starting — warn the user if credits are low.

Credit estimate formula: (related_count + pasf_count) * 2 credits for expansion + total_unique_keywords * 1 credit for metrics. A typical run with 100 related + 100 PASF keywords costs ~500 credits. Warn if balance would drop below 1,000 after the run.

Step 3: Expand the Seed

Run two Keywords Everywhere tools against the seed keyword:

  1. Get Related Keywords (num: 100) — returns a list of keyword strings (no metrics yet)
  2. Get "People Also Search For" Keywords (num: 100) — returns a list of keyword strings (no metrics yet)

If PASF returns empty results: This is common for newer or niche terms. Proceed with the related keywords only. If the combined list is thin (< 30 keywords), consider running a second expansion on a broader variant of the seed.

Combine the results into a single deduplicated keyword list.

If the seed returns fewer than 20 keywords total, it may be too narrow. Suggest broader alternatives to the user.

Step 3b: Pull Metrics

Run Get Keyword Data on the deduplicated keyword list to get volume, CPC, competition, and trend data for every keyword.

Batch in groups of 50 keywords per API call to avoid oversized responses. Run batches in parallel where possible.
