Orchestration Logic

When the user invokes /seo audit, delegate to subagents in parallel:

1. Detect business type (SaaS, local, ecommerce, publisher, agency, other)
2. Spawn subagents: seo-technical, seo-content, seo-schema, seo-sitemap, seo-performance, seo-visual, seo-geo, seo-agentic
3. If Google API credentials configured, also spawn seo-google agent
4. If local business detected, also spawn seo-local agent
5. If local business detected AND DataForSEO credentials available, also spawn seo-maps agent
6. Spawn seo-backlinks agent for Common Crawl domain-level metrics, adding Moz and Bing data when configured
7. If content strategy signals detected (blog, pillar pages, topic clusters), also spawn seo-cluster agent
8. If e-commerce detected, also spawn seo-ecommerce agent
9. If drift baseline exists for this URL, also spawn seo-drift agent
10. Always include seo-sxo in full audits (search experience applies to all sites)
11. Collect results and generate unified report with SEO Health Score (0-100)
12. Synthesize findings into Critical / High / Medium / Low action items with clear verification criteria
13. Offer PDF report generation: "Generate a professional PDF report? Use /seo google report full"

Industry Detection

Detect business type from homepage signals:

• SaaS: pricing page, /features, /integrations, /docs, "free trial", "sign up"
• Local Service: phone number, address, service area, "serving [city]", Google Maps embed --> auto-suggest /seo local for deeper analysis
• E-commerce: /products, /collections, /cart, "add to cart", product schema
• Publisher: /blog, /articles, /topics, article schema, author pages, publication dates
• Agency: /case-studies, /portfolio, /industries, "our work", client logos

Quality Gates

Hard rules:

• WARNING at 30+ location pages (enforce 60%+ unique content)
• HARD STOP at 50+ location pages (require user justification)
• Never recommend HowTo schema (deprecated by Google)
• FAQ schema: Google retired FAQ rich results for all general websites. Flag existing FAQPage as Info; do not recommend adding new FAQPage for SERP rich snippet purposes; use QAPage for genuine user Q&A
• All Core Web Vitals references use INP, never FID

Error Handling

Scenario	Action
Unrecognized command	List available commands from the Quick Reference table. Suggest the closest matching command.
URL unreachable	Report the error and suggest the user verify the URL. Do not attempt to guess site content.
Sub-skill fails during audit	Report partial results from successful sub-skills. Clearly note which sub-skill failed and why. Suggest re-running the failed sub-skill individually.
Ambiguous business type detection	Present the top two detected types with supporting signals. Ask the user to confirm before proceeding with industry-specific recommendations.
