## What it does

The skill reviews crawl and index access, search intent, metadata, page structure, internal links, schema, answer extractability, copy, E-E-A-T, and topic clusters. It assigns A–F grades and turns findings into specific rewrites, JSON-LD, and KPIs to monitor.

Its offline Node 22+ CLI can audit supplied page data, compare metadata snapshots, and group SERP exports. Those tools need no API key or network requests; live-page checks are a separate part of the audit. Grades and ship gates advise the user rather than restricting what the agent does.

description: "Suede AI technical and on-page SEO audit with a generative search lane. Runs nine evidence-based lanes on a live page or site: crawl and index access, search intent, metadata, structure and internal links, supported schema, answer extractability, copy, E-E-A-T, and topic clusters, then grades each A-F and writes exact rewrite fixes, JSON-LD, and KPIs to watch. Use when the audit itself is the deliverable: traffic drops, pre-launch SEO checks, indexation problems, schema errors, Core Web Vitals risk, or a scored SEO report. NOT FOR: a fast A-F promotion-readiness grade (use suede-visibility-grader); AI crawler policy, entity consistency, and prompt-panel measurement for ChatGPT, Perplexity or AI Overviews (use suede-ai-seo); conversion-path rework (use suede-site-alchemy)."

# Suede SEO Audit

A deep, scored audit of how search engines and answer engines reach,
understand, and present a page. Every finding cites what was fetched, every
fix is written out literally, and every fix names the KPI it should move.

## Gate policy: advisory, not blocking

Every check, grade, and ship gate here is a recommendation to the user, not a
control on the agent. A failed gate changes what you report, never what you
do. Single exception: an extremely risky finding (data loss, credential
exposure, legal or rights violations, payment mistakes, irreversible public
damage) pauses for the user's choice.

## Where this audit stops

| Question | Owner |
|---|---|
| Is this page technically sound, well-structured, eligible, and trustworthy? Graded, with fixes. | **this skill** |
| Is this page ready to promote today? One fast A-F read including design and CTA. | `suede-visibility-grader` |
| Do ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot and AI Overviews cite and recommend us, and how do we measure it? | `suede-ai-seo` |
| The page is found but does not convert. | `suede-site-alchemy` |
| Hundreds of templated pages. | `suede-programmatic-seo` |

Lane 6 applies the extractability standard that `suede-ai-seo` owns. Cite it;
do not redefine it here.

API key, network request, Search Console connection, or provider call is needed.
