Orchestration Logic
On /seo flow (no sub-command)
- Read
references/flow-framework.md - Show the FLOW stage overview with a one-line description of each stage
- Ask: which stage matches the user's current situation?
On /seo flow find [url|topic]
- Read all files in
references/prompts/find/ - Apply each prompt to the URL or topic
- Cross-reference: "For deeper SERP clustering, see
/seo cluster <seed-keyword>"
On /seo flow leverage [url]
- Read the file in
references/prompts/leverage/ - Apply to the URL's current backlink context
- Cross-reference: "For raw backlink data, see
/seo backlinks <url>"
On /seo flow optimize [url]
- Read all file names in
references/prompts/optimize/ - Read prior analysis context (URL, industry vertical, any prior skill output in conversation)
- Select 2-3 most relevant prompts; load only those files
- Apply selected prompts; note the others are accessible via
/seo flow prompts - Cross-reference: "For full content quality analysis, see
/seo content <url>and/seo geo <url>"
On /seo flow win [url]
- Read all files in
references/prompts/win/ - Apply each prompt to the URL's conversion and BOFU context
- Cross-reference: "For SXO persona scoring, see
/seo sxo <url>"
On /seo flow local [url]
- Read all files in
references/prompts/local/ - Apply to the URL's local SEO context
- Cross-reference: "For full local SEO analysis, see
/seo local <url>and/seo maps [command]"
On /seo flow prompts
- Read
references/prompts/README.md - Display the full index: all 41 prompts with stage, name, trigger conditions
On /seo flow sync
- Run:
"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run sync_flow.py - Display the JSON summary (files added, updated, unchanged)
- Show attribution notice after sync completes
Context Matching (Optimize stage)
The optimize stage has 21 prompts. Dumping all 21 is noise. Select by priority:
- Industry vertical (SaaS → on-page + technical; local → citations + GBP; publisher → E-E-A-T + freshness)
- Prior skill output (seo-technical flagged crawl issues → technical optimize prompts; seo-content flagged E-E-A-T gaps → content optimize prompts)
- URL signals (product pages → conversion; blog → freshness + authority)
Always surface exactly 2-3 prompts. State which prompts you chose and why.
