  • Works in 6 steps: Domain Overview (Semrush Data) → Backlink Profile (Ahrefs Data) → Keyword Rank Verification → …

What it does

SEO Domain Analyzer is an agent skill from gooseworks-ai/goose-skills. Pull real SEO metrics for any domain using Apify scrapers for Semrush and Ahrefs data. Gets domain authority, organic traffic estimates, keyword rankings, backlink profiles, top performing pages, and auto-discovers competitors from keyword overlap. No Semrush/Ahrefs subscription needed — uses Apify actors that scrape public pages.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/analyze_domain.py` and `skill.meta.json`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Web scraping and Link building. It works with Apify and Ahrefs. The repository describes itself as: Library of Growth & GTM skills + data APIs for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor to run ads, social, content, lead gen, seo and data scraping. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Web scraping
  • Tasks that involve Link building

Example prompts

  • “/seo-domain-analyzer”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in APIFY_API_TOKEN

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Domain Overview (Semrush Data)
  2. Backlink Profile (Ahrefs Data)
  3. Keyword Rank Verification
  4. Top Pages Analysis
  5. Competitor Discovery
  6. Output

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c650c6d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • APIFY_API_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

SEO Domain Analyzer loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 623 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~88
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SEO Domain Analyzer

Pull real SEO performance data for any domain — no Semrush or Ahrefs subscription needed. Uses Apify actors that scrape Semrush/Ahrefs public pages to get authority scores, traffic estimates, keyword rankings, backlink profiles, and competitor discovery.

Quick Start

bash
# Basic domain analysis
python3 scripts/analyze_domain.py --domain "example.com"

# With competitor comparison
python3 scripts/analyze_domain.py \
  --domain "example.com" \
  --competitors "competitor1.com,competitor2.com,competitor3.com"

# Check specific keywords
python3 scripts/analyze_domain.py \
  --domain "example.com" \
  --keywords "cloud cost optimization,reduce aws bill,finops tools"

# Save output
python3 scripts/analyze_domain.py \
  --domain "example.com" --output seo-profile.json

Typical full run~$0.50-1.00
With 3 competitors~$1.50-3.00

Process

Phase 1: Domain Overview (Semrush Data)

Use Apify actor devnaz/semrush-scraper to get:

python
# Actor: devnaz/semrush-scraper
# Input: domain URL
{
    "urls": ["https://example.com"]
}

Extracted metrics:

  • Authority Score (0-100)
  • Organic monthly traffic estimate
  • Organic keywords count (how many keywords the domain ranks for)
  • Paid traffic estimate (if any)
  • Backlinks count (Semrush's count)
  • Referring domains count
  • Top organic keywords (keyword, position, traffic share)
  • Top competitors (competing domains by keyword overlap)
  • Traffic trend (month-over-month direction)

Use Apify actor radeance/ahrefs-scraper to get:

python
# Actor: radeance/ahrefs-scraper
# Input: domain for backlink analysis
{
    "urls": ["https://example.com"],
    "mode": "domain-overview"
}

Extracted metrics:

  • Domain Rating (DR) (0-100)
  • URL Rating of homepage
  • Referring domains count and trend
  • Backlinks total count
  • Top referring domains (which sites link to them)
  • Anchor text distribution (branded vs keyword vs generic)
  • Dofollow vs nofollow ratio
Phase 3: Keyword Rank Verification

For specific keywords (user-provided or auto-inferred from Phase 1), verify actual rankings using Google search:

python
# Actor: apify/google-search-scraper
# Input: keyword queries
{
    "queries": "cloud cost optimization",
    "maxPagesPerQuery": 1,
    "resultsPerPage": 10,
    "countryCode": "us",
    "languageCode": "en"
}

For each keyword:

  • Does the target domain appear in top 10?
  • What position?
  • What specific URL ranks?
  • Who else ranks? (competitive landscape for that keyword)

Keyword sources (in priority order):

  1. User-provided keywords
  2. Top organic keywords from Semrush data (Phase 1)
  3. Auto-inferred from domain content (WebSearch site:[domain] to see page titles)
Phase 4: Top Pages Analysis

From the Semrush data, extract the highest-traffic pages:

  • URL
  • Estimated monthly traffic
  • Primary keyword(s) driving traffic
  • Number of ranking keywords

If Semrush doesn't provide per-page data, supplement with:

  • WebSearch: site:[domain] and note which pages appear first (proxy for importance)
  • WebSearch: site:[domain] blog for top blog content
Show full SKILL.md (273 more words)Show less
Phase 5: Competitor Discovery

Competitors are identified from multiple sources:

  1. Semrush competitor data (Phase 1) — domains competing for same keywords
  2. User-provided competitors — always included
  3. Google SERP competitors — from Phase 3 keyword checks, note which domains consistently appear

For each competitor, run a lighter version of Phase 1 (domain overview only):

  • Authority score
  • Organic traffic estimate
  • Keyword count
  • Top keywords

Tips

  • Semrush scraper data quality varies. The Apify actors scrape public Semrush pages, which show limited data for non-subscribers. Traffic estimates and top keywords are available, but detailed per-page breakdowns may be partial.
  • Combine with site-content-catalog to get both the content inventory AND performance data — together they tell you what content exists AND which pieces actually drive traffic.
  • Keyword rank verification via Google is the most reliable data point. Semrush/Ahrefs estimates can be off, but checking actual SERPs gives ground truth.
  • Run competitors lighter. Full backlink analysis on 5 competitors gets expensive. Domain overview (Semrush only) is usually sufficient for comparison.
  • Apify actors may break. These scrape Semrush/Ahrefs public pages, which can change. If an actor fails, fall back to the free seo-traffic-analyzer skill which uses web search probes.

Fallback: Free Mode

If APIFY_API_TOKEN is not set or Apify actors fail, the script falls back to:

  1. WebSearch probes (like seo-traffic-analyzer skill)
  2. site:[domain] for indexed page count
  3. SimilarWeb free tier for traffic estimates
  4. Manual Google SERP checks for keyword rankings

This gives less precise data but still produces a useful report.

Dependencies

  • Python 3.8+
  • requests library
  • APIFY_API_TOKEN env var (for Apify mode; falls back to free probes without it)
