## What it does

The subagent identifies primary and secondary keywords, calculates their density, maps related entities, and suggests semantic alternatives. It also infers likely search intent and flags signs of over-optimization. Its output includes guidance on keyword placement and topical coverage.

The workflow covers entities and related concepts, keyword distribution, question-style search terms, and topic clusters. The description also mentions WordPress SEO plugin integration and keyword schema in frontmatter for static sites. Claude Code setup requires adding the marketplace before installing the plugin, so both steps are part of the install process.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install seo-technical-optimization@claude-code-workflows
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/agents/seo-keyword-strategist.md` — For all projects use ~/.claude/agents/. Claude delegates by the description field or an @-mention

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.codex/agents/seo-keyword-strategist.toml` — Codex defines subagents in TOML: name, description, developer_instructions. Move the Markdown text into developer_instructions by hand. For all projects use ~/.codex/agents/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/agents/seo-keyword-strategist.md` — Cursor also reads .claude/agents/
