Performance Reporter

Aggregates SEO/GEO data, builds stakeholder reports, benchmarks goals/competitors, calculates ROI, and turns deltas into prioritized recommendations.

Quick Start

Create an SEO performance report for [domain] for [time period]
Generate an executive summary of SEO performance for [month/quarter]
Create a GEO visibility report for [domain]
Generate a content performance report

Skill Contract

Expected output: a delta summary, alert/report output, and a short handoff summary ready for memory/monitoring/.

• Reads: current and prior-period metrics across traffic/rankings/authority/content, report audience, date range, and any user-provided or tool data.
• Writes: a user-facing monitoring deliverable plus a reusable summary that can be stored under memory/monitoring/.
• Promotes: significant changes, confirmed anomalies, follow-up actions, and pending decisions to memory/open-loops.md.
• Done when: each in-scope section (traffic, rankings, GEO, authority, backlinks, content) is present or marked "Not yet evaluated"; every metric is source-tagged and compared to the prior period; and recommendations carry owner, priority, and expected impact.
• Primary next skill: use the Next Best Skill below when a change needs action.

Handoff Summary

Emit the standard shape from skill-contract.md §Handoff Summary Format.

Data Sources

All integrations optional (see CONNECTORS.md). With tools connected, aggregates traffic from ~~analytics, search data from ~~search console, rankings/backlinks from ~~SEO tool, and AI visibility from ~~AI monitor. Without tools, ask user for analytics exports, Search Console data, ranking data, and KPIs.

Zero-dependency measurement loop: every reported change should come from a computed delta, not an eyeballed estimate. Store each reporting period's KPIs and let the ledger compute period-over-period movement: python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/connectors/ledger.py" record <domain> --source report --data '{"sessions": ..., "clicks": ..., ...}', then ledger.py diff <domain> --source report for the period delta and ledger.py trend <domain> --source report --field <kpi> for the trend line. Label every figure Measured / User-provided / Estimated accordingly, and attribute outcome movements against a control rather than to the latest change by default — see references/measurement-protocol.md. See scripts/connectors/README.md.

Decision Gates

Stop and ask the user when:

• No reporting period or comparison period can be determined and none is in context — offer: (1) last 30 days vs prior 30, (2) last calendar month vs prior month, (3) a custom range. A period comparison is required, not optional.

Continue silently (never stop for):

• A section's source data is missing — mark that section "Not yet evaluated" and proceed; do not fabricate the metric.
• Audience not stated — default to the executive template and note the assumption.

Instructions

When a user requests a performance report, use Report Output Templates and cover:

1. Define Report Parameters — Domain, period, comparison period, report type, audience, focus areas, and data freshness.
2. Create Executive Summary — Overall rating, wins, watch areas, required actions, metrics at a glance (traffic, rankings, conversions, DA/authority, AI citations), and SEO ROI; tag each metric Measured / User-provided / Estimated.
3. Report Organic Traffic — Sessions, users, pageviews, engagement/bounce, trend visualization, source/device split, top pages, each figure source-tagged.
4. Report Keyword Rankings — Position ranges, distribution change, top improvements/declines, SERP features. For raw position-by-position deltas, defer to rank-tracker rather than recomputing here.
5. Report GEO/AI Performance — AI citation overview, citations by topic, GEO wins, and optimization opportunities.
6. Report Domain Authority (CITE) — Include CITE dimension scores and veto status when available; otherwise mark "Not yet evaluated."
7. Report Content Quality (CORE-EEAT) — Include average scores and trends when available; otherwise mark "Not yet evaluated."
8. Report Backlinks — Link profile summary, acquisition trend, notable links, competitive position.
9. Report Content Performance — Publishing summary, top content, content needing attention, and content ROI.
10. Generate Recommendations — Immediate, short-term, and long-term actions with priority, owner, expected impact, and next-period goals.
11. Compile Full Report — Add table of contents, appendix, data sources, methodology, and glossary.

Label every metric Measured (tool/export), User-provided, or Estimated (model inference); never present an estimate as measured; if a required metric is unavailable, mark it N/A — do not invent it. Likewise separate an observed change from a plausible explanation (corroborate before stating it as the cause), an optimization opportunity, and follow-up needing crawl/SERP/rank/audit — never report an unverified explanation as a confirmed cause.

Example

Sample output: an executive summary with overall status, metrics-at-a-glance for traffic/rankings/conversions/authority/AI citations, SEO ROI, and immediate/month/quarter actions with owners and dates.

Ask "Save these results?" If yes, write to memory/monitoring/ — see Skill Contract §Save Results Template.
