What it does

SEO Quick is an agent skill from zubair-trabzada/dataforseo-claude. 60-second SEO snapshot powered by the DataForSEO API. Three parallel calls (DataForSEO Labs domain overview, Backlinks summary, ranked keywords) for core metrics on any domain — total keywords, traffic estimate, backlinks, top rankings — without waiting for a full audit.

Its SKILL.md is about 690 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 Link building. 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 Link building

Example prompts

  • “/seo-quick”

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Parse login: and password: from their message.
  2. Write them to ~/.claude/skills/seo/.env
  3. chmod 600 ~/.claude/skills/seo/.env
  4. Run a verification call: ~/.claude/skills/seo/scripts/keyword_research.py volume "test"
  5. If verification succeeds (real JSON returned): tell the user "✅ Credentials verified. Running your command now..." and proceed with the…
  6. If status 40104 — Please verify your account: tell the user to verify their account at https://app.dataforseo.com/, then say "continue" to…
  7. If any other auth error: ask them to double-check the API password (the long alphanumeric string from…

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:

    • Bash
    • 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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • DATAFORSEO_PASSWORD

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

Context cost

SEO Quick loads about 694 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 220 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~70
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~694

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:29
    2. Write them to `~/.claude/skills/seo/.env`:
  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:34
    3. `chmod 600 ~/.claude/skills/seo/.env`
  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, Write

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 in this format:

login: their_email@example.com
password: their_api_password_here

When they reply:

  1. Parse login: and password: from their message.
  2. Write them to ~/.claude/skills/seo/.env:
    DATAFORSEO_LOGIN=<login>
    DATAFORSEO_PASSWORD=<password>
  3. chmod 600 ~/.claude/skills/seo/.env
  4. Run a verification call: ~/.claude/skills/seo/scripts/keyword_research.py volume "test"
  5. If verification succeeds (real JSON returned): tell the user "✅ Credentials verified. Running your command now..." and proceed with the original request.
  6. If status 40104 — Please verify your account: tell the user to verify their account at https://app.dataforseo.com/, then say "continue" to retry.
  7. If any other auth error: ask them to double-check the API password (the long alphanumeric string from https://app.dataforseo.com/api-access — not their account login password).

Never echo credentials back to the user, never include them in tool output, and never commit them.
