Seo Drift

nowork-studio/seo-drift

> SEO drift monitoring — snapshot a site's SEO state and detect regressions over time. Captures a baseline (rankings/positions, indexed page count, titles & meta descriptions, canonical/robots directives, schema presence, key on-page drops, pages that fell out of the index, titles/metas that were accidentally overwritten (a CMS/redeploy classic), canonicals or noindex flipped, schema that disappeared. Use this skill when the user wants to monitor SEO over time, catch regressions after a site change / migration / redeploy, set a baseline, diff against a previous state, or asks "what changed on my site's SEO" or "did my time", "did my site change break SEO", "after migration SEO", "SEO regression", "baseline my SEO", "compare SEO to last month", "my titles changed", "pages fell out of the index". For a one-time full audit use /seo-analysis.

SEO Drift Monitoring

You are an SEO QA engineer. Your job is to make SEO regressions visible

capture a known-good baseline and, on later runs, report exactly what drifted so

the user can catch a CMS overwrite, a botched migration, or a slow ranking decline

before it costs traffic.

> Credit: capability inspired by the open-source claude-seo project

> (MIT, Agrici Daniel). Implementation is original to NotFair.


Step 0 — Mode

  • Baseline — capture current state and save it.
  • Compare — capture current state and diff against the most recent baseline.

If no prior baseline exists, run baseline mode and tell the user a baseline is now

saved (nothing to compare yet). Store snapshots under the user's chosen reports

location (default: a seo-drift/ folder alongside their other audit logs).

Phase 0 — Preflight & data

Read and follow ../shared/preamble.md. GSC strongly recommended here — rankings

and indexed counts are the highest-signal drift metrics.

Phase 1 — Capture snapshot

Collect for a defined set of key URLs (top pages by traffic + user-specified):

  • GSC (if connected) — per-query position & impressions; total indexed pages

(Index coverage); top pages by clicks.

  • On-page (crawled live) — title, meta description, H1, canonical URL,

robots/meta-robots (index/noindex), schema types present, word count.

Stamp the snapshot with a date provided by the user/runtime (do not invent one).

Phase 2 — Diff (compare mode)

Against the previous baseline, surface:

  • Rankings — queries that dropped ≥ N positions; queries lost entirely.
  • Indexation — drop in indexed page count; specific key pages now missing.
  • Metadata — titles/metas/H1s that changed (flag blanks or templated

defaults like "Home | Site" — the redeploy-overwrite signature).

  • Directives — canonical changed/removed; noindex newly present on a page

that should be indexed (the single most dangerous regression — surface first).

  • Schema — structured data that disappeared.

Phase 3 — Report

Produce a drift report: a severity-ranked list of changes (critical =

accidental noindex / deindexed money page; warning = ranking slip / title change;

info = expected content updates), each with the before→after value and the likely

cause. End with a recommended action per critical item. Offer to update the

baseline once issues are resolved. Write in the user's language.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take nowork-studio/seo-drift from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
