What it does

SEO Email is an agent skill from zubair-trabzada/dataforseo-claude. Draft a personalized cold email to a prospect based on the SEO audit findings. Reads the audit JSON for the given domain, picks the 2-3 most impactful issues, and writes an outreach email that references specific data (current ranking, traffic value, named issues) so it doesn't look like spam.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Cold outreach and SEO audit. The repository describes itself as: SEO Agency Killer for Claude Code — powered by DataForSEO. 13 skills + 5 subagents for keyword research, rank tracking, backlink audits, technical crawls, competitor analysis… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Cold outreach
  • Tasks that involve SEO audit

Example prompts

  • “/seo-email”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read ~/.claude/skills/seo/output/-audit.json
  2. Pick the 2-3 most impactful findings from audit.issues — prioritize critical and high-priority issues that have clear business impact…
  3. Pull the single highest-leverage keyword opportunity from audit.top_keywords — ideally one where they currently rank position 4-30 with…
  4. Draft an email that
  5. Output the email in this format (copy-pasteable)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 67ac4f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • dataforseo.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

SEO Email loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 515 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Phase 0: Credential Preflight (REQUIRED — run BEFORE anything else)

Before running any of the steps below, always invoke the shared preflight check:

bash
~/.claude/skills/seo/scripts/preflight.sh

If exit code is 0: credentials are configured — proceed with the rest of this skill silently.

If exit code is 2: the script prints the DataForSEO setup wizard to stdout. STOP, display that wizard to the user verbatim, and wait for them to paste credentials.

When they reply, parse login: and password:, write to ~/.claude/skills/seo/.env (chmod 600), verify with keyword_research.py volume "test", and proceed only after success. Never echo credentials.


SEO Cold Email Drafter

Powered by: Reads the audit JSON produced by /seo audit (built from live DataForSEO API data). No new API calls — purely a drafting step.

Prerequisite

/seo audit <domain> must have run first and saved ~/.claude/skills/seo/output/<domain>-audit.json. If that file doesn't exist, tell the user to run the audit first.

Inputs

The user provides a domain:

  • /seo email acmeplumbing.com
  • /seo email <domain>

Optionally they can supply their own name/signature — otherwise use a generic placeholder.

Workflow

  1. Read ~/.claude/skills/seo/output/<domain>-audit.json
  2. Pick the 2-3 most impactful findings from audit.issues — prioritize critical and high-priority issues that have clear business impact (lost traffic, lost revenue, broken pages indexable).
  3. Pull the single highest-leverage keyword opportunity from audit.top_keywords — ideally one where they currently rank position 4-30 with decent volume and CPC. Compute its estimated monthly value: search_volume × CPC × 0.3 (rough CTR for that position band).
  4. Draft an email that:
    • Has a short, specific subject that references their domain or the issue (not "I do SEO")
    • Opens by referencing something specific you noticed (not "I came across your website")
    • Lists 2-3 specific findings in bullet form — concrete, not generic ("you're missing meta descriptions on 12 service pages" not "your SEO needs work")
    • Quantifies the value of one specific opportunity in dollars
    • Offers to send the full PDF audit as a soft ask (no hard pitch)
    • Ends with a low-pressure sign-off
  5. Output the email in this format (copy-pasteable):
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
TO:      [find their contact email manually]
SUBJECT: <short, specific subject>

Hi [Owner / first name if you can find it],

<2-3 sentence opening that references something specific>

<bullet list of 2-3 concrete findings with numbers>

<one quantified opportunity — e.g. "for example, you're #14 for 'plumbers san francisco' which is ~2,400 searches/mo at $14 CPC, so moving to top 3 is worth roughly $X/month in click value">

I put together a quick 1-page PDF audit that shows 5-7 specific fixes
ranked by impact. Want me to send it over?

[Your name]
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Show full SKILL.md (188 more words)Show less

Tone rules

  • Specific over generic — every sentence should reference data from THEIR audit, not boilerplate
  • Numbers over adjectives — say "240 monthly visits" not "decent traffic"
  • One ask only — "want me to send the PDF?" — don't pitch services in the first email
  • Under 150 words — long emails get ignored
  • No "I" sentences at the start — start with "Saw" or "Noticed" or "Your..."
  • No exclamation points — keeps it professional, not spammy
  • No "leverage," "synergy," "optimize" or other agency-speak

Output extras

After the email itself, also surface:

  1. Send time recommendation: "Tuesday-Thursday, 9-11am their local time gets the best open rates for cold outreach."
  2. Follow-up cadence note: "If no reply in 4 business days, send a short bump: 'Hey, did this get buried? Happy to send the PDF if you're curious.'"
  3. Reminder: "Find their actual contact email via their site's /contact page, Google Business Profile, or LinkedIn — the audit doesn't include that."

When NOT to use this skill

  • The audit hasn't run yet → run /seo audit <domain> first
  • The user wants a generic SEO outreach template → tell them this skill only writes personalized emails grounded in real audit data
