How to run an AI SEO audit without the terminal

You do not need SSH, Node.js on your laptop, or Claude Code installed locally to run a Claude SEO skill audit through ClaudeSkillSEO.com. This walkthrough is for marketers, founders, and SEO leads who want a browser-based workflow with signed-in history and downloadable reports.

For background on the product, read What is ClaudeSkillSEO?. If you are comparing terminal vs web, see Claude SEO skill CLI vs ClaudeSkillSEO web interface.

Before you start

Prepare:

• A public HTTPS URL (staging behind login is not ideal for first runs)
• A Google account (or supported sign-in method) for authentication
• AI credits on your account—runs bill on successful completion; add credits or enable auto-reload in Settings / Billing if needed

You do not need to clone GitHub repositories or install the MIT-licensed skill locally—the platform already integrates Claude SEO by Agrici Daniel on the server side.

Step 1: Sign in

1. Go to ClaudeSkillSEO.com.
2. Use Login / sign-in with Google (or the method your workspace uses).
3. Confirm your email appears in the header—that is your Firebase account, distinct from the server’s Claude CLI login used internally.

Step 2: Choose an audit type

On the dashboard SEO Command Center, pick a command that matches your goal:

Goal	Typical command
Whole site	Full Website Audit
One URL	Single Page Analysis
AI Overviews / citability	GEO / AI Overviews Audit
Structured data	Schema Audit
Sitemap	Sitemap Analyze

Each maps to a /seo … slash command the platform runs headlessly—same family as the open-source skill documented in What is the Claude SEO skill?.

Step 3: Enter the URL and run

1. Paste the full URL (https://…) in the target field.
2. Click run (or Run now for scheduled items).
3. Wait for completion. Full-site audits can take a long time depending on size; watch Scheduled tasks and History rather than leaving a single tab open indefinitely.

Optional: disable interactive PTY if you only need headless runs—reduces server load and avoids an extra terminal session.

Step 4: Read results in History

When the run succeeds:

1. Open History from the sidebar.
2. Select the run—unread items appear in dashboard metrics.
3. Open Full Report for bundled Markdown/text files (analysis, GEO, schema sections depending on command).
4. Use workspace downloads for a zip of the run folder if you need to attach files to tickets or clients.

Parsed summaries and severity counts appear in the UI; the Markdown files are the source of truth for details.

Step 5: Export and share

• Copy sections from Full Report into Notion, Google Docs, or email
• Download the zip and commit to an internal repo if your process requires version control
• For PDF deliverables, export from Markdown (browser print-to-PDF or your converter)—see the platform overview on artifact types

Redact internal paths if you share reports externally; the platform sanitizes many server paths in user-facing exports, but review before sending to clients.

Scheduling repeat audits

Use Scheduled / monitor tasks to rerun the same command on a cadence (daily, weekly, monthly). Monitors stay pending until the next window; execution runs appear separately in History. This supports regression checks after CMS or template deploys—similar in spirit to monitoring SEO after releases.

Track improvement over time (Claude SEO tracking workflow)

A single audit is a snapshot. Claude SEO tracking means storing each completed run in History and comparing the next audit to your baseline—category by category, not only a single domain grade.

Phase	Action
Week 1 — Baseline	Run a full audit on your primary URL or site scope. Note critical and high-priority findings and the seven-category scores.
Weeks 2–3 — Fix	Address crawl blocks, canonical drift, schema errors, and AI crawler permission issues first—they usually move scores fastest.
Week 4 — Re-audit	Run the same command again. Open History and compare the new report to your stored baseline (overall and per category).
Ongoing	Keep scheduled monitors on stable URL sets after releases; export PDF or Markdown when you need client-facing proof of progress.

You do not need a separate spreadsheet for “last month’s score” if you consistently re-run from the same account—the platform retains audit history for delta review. For migration-specific baselines and diff artifacts, pair this cadence with monitoring SEO after releases. Background on analysis software positioning: What is a Claude SEO tool?.

Billing and auto-reload

• AI credits deduct on successful runtime aligned with duration-based pricing shown in the UI.
• If balance goes negative and auto-reload is enabled, Stripe may charge your saved package—configure under Settings / Billing.
• Reload balance on the dashboard triggers auto-reload when configured; otherwise you are sent to Billing setup.

When you might still want the terminal

Power users who fork the MIT-licensed skill, patch prompts, or integrate with private CI often keep Claude Code locally. That path is optional, not required for the web workflow.

Credits

Audits use the open-source Claude SEO skill (MIT, Agrici Daniel and contributors). ClaudeSkillSEO.com is a separate web product that hosts that skill—not created by Agrici Daniel. No implied upstream endorsement.

FAQ

Do I need Claude Desktop?

No for standard dashboard runs.

Can my team share one login?

Use your organization’s policy. Account sharing may mix history and billing—prefer separate accounts if you need per-user audit trails.

What if the run fails?

Check History for error output, confirm credits, and verify the URL is publicly reachable. Failed runs should not consume credits the same way successful runs do—confirm current billing rules on the Pricing page.
