dataforseo-claude
This Claude Code project uses DataForSEO for keyword research, rank tracking, backlink audits, technical crawls, competitor analysis, and PDF reports.
About dataforseo-claude
dataforseo-claude is an open-source project for Claude Code that uses the DataForSEO API to run SEO tasks. Users enter slash commands such as /seo audit example.com. Five subagents then run in parallel and pull live data from DataForSEO's keyword, SERP, backlink, on-page, and domain analytics APIs. The audit returns a composite SEO score from 0 to 100, a prioritized action plan, and a PDF report. The project describes its data as coming from APIs rather than web scraping or browsing.
Use requires a DataForSEO account with API credentials, which are stored in a local .env file. The project runs on macOS and Linux. Windows is listed as working through Git Bash but not actively tested. It also requires Python 3.8 or later and the Claude Code CLI. The project is released under the MIT license.
